It's a good thing Miss McAlister knew her stuff and stuck to her guns! Can you imagine if they'd picked on someone much less savvy and certainly not nearly as plucky!? Some poor grey-haired old pensioner as they say ... be lucky if someone wasn't hurt ...

Doesn't hurt that she's gorgeous! Maybe if she'd have gotten a fella at the desk instead of a disinterested female cop?
To: DancesWithCats
Interesting than no description of any kind - of the perp — except it was a woman 6 feet tall.

But when she went to a police station to report the crime, she was told by an officer behind the desk that it was not a crime because she had got the bag back.The first British "Chief Wiggum Award" winner.

My ancestors knew it was a failing empire back in the 1620's and got out. Don't know what happened to that "early adopter" trait over the centuries, though.
Not a crime since she recovered her own property? I'm surprised they didn't charge the victim with theft since she took the bag from the person holding it. That lunacy is probably not too far into the future, given the way Britian is devolving.

There is a similarity! Is that a good series?
To: DancesWithCats
It is fun to watch! Kinda like watching the “Dukes Of Hazard” in away, but set in Miami. Just my opinion.

I meant to catch it from the beginning and lost tract of the time when it premiered. Having the kitchen redone and it’s been ‘a right mess’! LOL
To: DancesWithCats
It is on the same channel as “Monk”, but on Thur. nights, and it seems to have the same type of strange “split season” as “Monk”

She looks like she’s about 16 years old. Cute. But very very young.
To: Red_Devil 232
I’ll have to set the DVR to catch it! Did I miss any important plot developments or are they all able to be watched independently?
To: Red_Devil 232
Ah ha! Found all sorts of info ...

Each week is a new plot and show ... unless it is a rerun.
