Format Unlike Others! Great One...

I enjoyed this episode if for only one reason - okay, two - the transitions were perfectly timed, and the script was NOT cheesy - thanks to Nick Can't Say No!!! Last for Judy Landers - and I'll leave it at that : )

Too Predictable- Heavy Spoilers in Review

Warning: Spoilers
I'd like to give this episode a higher rating but it was maybe the most obvious "who done it" in the history of television. Within the first 10 minutes of the episode it was clear who is the killer.

To start off, Christy's killer was clearly a woman in the most awful wig and beard I've ever seen. Then, as the paramedic (Lisa) is talking with Dan, it was obvious she was obsessed with him and I immediately said to myself "well it's clearly her". Over the life of the series they make it seem like every woman in Las Vegas (and maybe Clark County) wants Dan Tanna but this episode took it to another level.

There were some funny parts of this episode, however: Super P. I. Dan Tanna beating up a karate guy, Lisa, wearing the most obvious wig and fake beard in history, casually hanging out in the casino while Dan and Shannon talk, Angie being her adorable and funny self and amateur physician Dan Tanna diagnosing Angie with a broken arm after not seeing her arm.

The climax featured a way too long ambulance chase that was basically nothing but sharp turns. Then, as Lisa is unmasked (unbearded?) she displays every cliché for an obsessed and unhinged woman.

I'm sure this won't be the last episode where someone is obsessed with Dan Tanna or he defeats someone in hand-to-hand combat that is clearly superior to him. But this was the most predictable episode.
