- Had to happen at some point. -- nm - Todd Manning Dec 16, 16:22 2
  - He stayed on top of his game longer than Peyton, but I think Brees will beat them both at it. -- nm - David Dec 16, 16:23 1
    - Something to be said for riding the pine when you join. -- nm - Spawn Dec 16, 18:27

  - (And of course, this case and the settlement are only about "going beyond that" in a business sense - the idea that he got her punted from the role) - Beryllium Dec 16, 15:03 4
    - oh I think he was teasing...but it carried over to the crew...he's series lead and sets the tone... -- nm - Remlik Dec 16, 15:18 3
      - But if your procedural main character walks the line both professional and personally and you write that out, wouldn't you just have "FBI" on CBS? -- nm - Max Dec 16, 20:24
      - Yeah. Not cool. Hopefully Dushku can land on a series worth her time, though. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 15:21 1
