Default "knowing her"

"how ya doing?"

david asks maddie how she's doing after he is used by his ex to be a witness to her killing her already dead husband. david falls for jillian again and is blinded by the past they shared. the fun begins when, as in usual "moonlighting" fashion, a multi-car car chase through the graveyard begins with dave and maddie driving the hearse. maddie gets sick when she realizes there is a coffin in the car.
they drive through a drive-in theatre. man!! how many people today would have to ask "what are all those metals things sticking out of the ground in that hilly lot of land"???
this is a good episode.

rating: 6

One of my favorite car chases from any show. Dana Delany was great in this one also.

This was a good episode. My favorite part was when David left the note and rose for Maddie and then took them back. That was really sad.

Ok, I was looking for this thread, because I knew it had to be somewhere, hehehe. I'm writing my coment now because I just saw this episode yesterday. And, btw, if I don't post in other episodes it's just because I haven't seen the episodes yet, ok? I have to wait till the download and it's so da*n slow, but worth the waiting!! hehehehe

Ok, I just wanted to say that I really liked this episode. It was the first time I saw Maddie jelous, because she WAS jelous. And it's also the first time that I saw Maddie having deep feelings for David, being worried about him. Not just atracted to him, because they're atracted from the start, but having another feelings, being concerned about him and all that, or at least that's the way I see it.

I also adored the way David put the flower and the note and then took them away. And did you see Maddie's face when Dave was huging Jillian in the police office? She looked so sad... And then again in her office, feeling alone and miserable. I think she was feeling like she was putting behind, I mean, like David was putting her beside. And she felt terrible about it.

I have come to realize that I have a hard time liking ANY episode that posed a threat to the David/Maddie relationship. Therefore, this is not one of my favorite episodes. There were many moments in it that I loved - but when I think of the entire episode, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I didn't like Gillian because I viewed her as a threat, plain and simple.

One of my favorite scenes in all of ML is the hotel room scene. It is wonderfully acted by both Cybill and Bruce. IMO, they BOTH deserved Emmys.

This is one of earliest episodes that I can remember saying, "I love this show." The chase with the hearse is one of my faves. It was one of the first ones where David showed a vulnerable side and Maddie showed a jealous side. You just knew after this one how they felt about each other even though David not leaving the rose shows you how hard it will be for either of them to admit it.

I just finished watching this one!!!

I love it, eventhough there is "another woman" involved.
I really like their acting in this one, it strikes me as a little different.

Especially in the beginning with Maddie coming in all messed up and dirty, that's great!
Walking around with her panties down, terrific.

David is soft and tender in this one, even for Maddie, who sometimes acts like a bitch, because she's jealous ofcourse (which is sweet btw).
Shame that he took the rose away but....... I guess he didn't want to give in for 100%. He apologised already and that was enough for him I guess.

I'm glad I got it now! Yahoo!!

No, they're all good! No worries! It's just in the preview that the sounds or picture isn't showing. When it's finished it's aaaaalright!
