Season Six: The Destruction of Bobby Goren Commences - Law & Order: Criminal Intent [V]

May 2024 · 2 minute read

Sorry for the depressing title, but that's how I see Season Six--when WarrenthehackandtalentlessfuckwitLeight becomes show runner.

Bobby Goren is no longer this smart as a whip, intelligent detective, but is someone who is suddenly overwhelmed by his mother's illness, and can't even string a single sentence together without stuttering. I HATE Leight for that alone.

Oh and for giving us that arrogant, blowhard, Ross. Whose attitude toward Goren once he got to Major Case peeved me beyond reason.

Though of course, this season also gave us "Worlds' Fair" a Logan episode, which is one of my favorites.  When Logan asks that Jewish kid, who was threatening all those illegals with a chainsaw, to put his hands on the table and to spread his fingers...and then SLAMS! his fist over said hand--though the kid is quick enough to remove said hand.

Then there's my favorite line, when Logan is questioning Meena's "fiancé" when he says his alibi is that he was at a "restaurant", and that Meena was a "whore." Turns out the restaurant was a strip club.

Logan: "Was it a pure one?" Oh, SNAP!

Watching  season six, it's really weird how Leight just SHOVED Bobby's "mental" issues down my throat, starting with "War at Home"  where we first see his mom, followed by "Brother's Keeper", and making Bobby all slovenly, not wearing a suit...saw some shades of my Bobby in "Privileged", where Doris Roberts was AWESOME.

And then I'm all peeved and pissed in "Players" where that rich entitled son of a federal prosecutor, thinks he's Black and acts all "gangsta" and Ross, the putz, figures to put the blame on the lone BLACK kid involved. True, they probably, or HE didn't think Colin (the black Kid) did it or was the leader, because Logan, love him! KNEW it was the rich fucking WHITE kid.

Oh, and they didn't change history that Bobby's mom was schizophrenic to having cancer. She had cancer, final stage or something, in addition to her being schizophrenic. ( I thought someone either here or maybe it was TWoP mentioned it or something).

But I do have to admit that between Season five and six, Noth somehow got more sexier and slimmed down, whereas, D'Onofrio, the opposite. Me no likey, that the toll on D'Onofrio was starting to show. Or was it a deliberate choice since we were getting lambasted with all his personal and family issues? Bobby's, not D'Onofrio's.
