Angie Tribeca is back on TBS tonight at 10:30p and in the first two episodes they make fun of the CBS cop shows. I am not going to tell you how, but you will have to see the brilliant way they do it.
The episode starts off with Tribeca (Rsahida Jones) retiring in order to be a full time mom to her child with Giles (Hayes MacArthur). What will happen that will bring back? Let’s just say the reason is crappy.
Now that she is back, she needs to investigate someone who is kidnapping wealthy men who are gamers for fun. On tonight’s episode, the killer takes his newest victim (Timothy Omundson). Just when you think the actor can’t top himself, he does again. And he does it at one point just wearing underwear!
Tribeca and Giles have very little to go ojn, so she has to go to a past collar played by Chris Pine. That’s right, the newest Captain Kirk actually does comedy and does it well. After she gets a lead from him, they are off to next week’s episode where this killer storyline ends.
In the next few weeks, they look into a local college “sports” star accused of hit and run. There’s a reason why sports in quotes. Then the following week, a robotics expert is killed by one of his robots. Be prepared for one of the weirdest sex scenes ever. Heather Graham returns for this episode, but is she the on involved in that sex scene. On May 8th, the sky is falling and a person falls out of the sky. Where did he come from? They will go farther than they have ever gone before to find out.
Angie Tribeca has found a perfect way to mesh procedurals with slapstick humor and because of that this show gets more addictive with each season. Season 3 is so addictive, I might have to check into rehab!
