Major Crimes: Scoop on the possibility of Dr. Morales’ first name being revealed from TVLine's Matt Webb Mitovich

Here's some scoop on Major Crimes from this week's (Posted on 8/7/14) Matt's Inside Line column.

On Major Crimes, are we going to discover Dr. Morales’ first name? –Ilona
Series creator James Duff likes how you think, Ilona! “If you guys really want to know Dr. Morales’ first name, I will give him a first name,” he told me. “Jonny [Del Arco] has come to me a couple of times and said, ‘Can I have a name?’ — it’s like that episode in Voyager when The Doctor tells Janeway, ‘I’d just like to have a name’ — so I’m thinking about how to introduce it and what the name will be. You know, it took me six seasons to give Provenza a first name! I just wouldn’t do it.”

A question for Star Trek fans

Hi, Everybody!
I’m contemplating reviewing each season of one of the Star Trek TV series, but I can’t decide between reviewing each season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine or reviewing each season of Star Trek: Enterprise first. Those are the only Star Trek TV series that I own every season of on DVD, so it would be a choice between those two shows. Admittedly, Star Trek: Voyager and Star Trek: Enterprise are my personal favorite series when it comes to which of the various Star Trek TV series that I like the most.

I only own the season 6 DVD set of Star Trek: Voyager at the moment though. I would eventually like to buy the other six seasons of Star Trek: Voyager, so I might do the same thing with that series at some point in the future. Anyway, I would greatly appreciate people’s feedback on whether I should start by reviewing Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, or if you would be more interested in me reviewing Star Trek: Enterprise first. If you could please, leave your response to my inquiry in the comment section of this post that would be wonderful. Thanks! :)

Star Trek: Enterprise-I miss this show so much

I don’t know why, but I’ve really been getting back into Star Trek lately. Perhaps it’s partially due to Star Trek Into Darkness being released in theaters. Anyway, I’ve been watching a lot of Star Trek: Voyager episodes again for the first time in years, and I’ve been thinking about doing the same thing with Star Trek: Enterprise.

I know that there are a lot of people who have issues with Star Trek: Enterprise and how it messed with the continuity and history of the franchise, but I for one really liked it. It was really interesting to see what Starfleet was like in its early days before they had fairly advanced ships and technology and before they had all the rules and regulations that frequently came into play in the previous TV series, such as the Prime Directive.

I love pretty much all of the characters on the show with the possible exception of Travis Mayweather. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t dislike the character Travis. It’s just that he has never really stood out to me like the rest of the characters on the show did.

It’s such a shame that the show was canceled when it was. Personally, I thought season 4 was pretty good. The final episode was far from great due to the fact that it focused a lot on Counselor Troi and Commander Riker from Star Trek: The Next Generation instead of the cast of Star Trek: Enterprise, but the series finale could have been a lot worse, if you ask me. I definitely think I’ll watch some episodes of Star Trek; Enterprise again in the near future.

Exclusive: Body Of Proof Boss Explains Cast Shake-Up, Reveals New Players to Be Added-TVLine

Here's an interview that the creator and showrunner Matt Gross along with executive producers Christopher Murphey and Evan Katz did with TVLine's Matt Webb Mitovich about the recent cast shake-up and how the show will change in season 3, particularly by adding several new characters to the cast, which they give some scoop on. Here's an excerpt from the interview where they explain why they fired Nicholas Bishop (Peter), John Carrol Lynch (Bud) and Sonja Sohn (Sam):



TVLINE | For starters, I understand that what’s going on here is not about shaving dollars.
MATTHEW GROSS | No, not at all. We were fortunate enough to get a Season 3 of our show, and in trying to bring more eyeballs to our show, we wanted to change some of the dynamic and create new characters. And that’s the purpose for all of this. Also, we just brought on Evan Katz as one of the heads of the “three-headed hydra” — that’s what we refer to ourselves as.
EVAN KATZ | A very nice hydra by the way. It’s sort of a creative reboot of the show with the goal of being more dynamic, higher stakes, everything that we can do to amp up the stakes of each episode –
GROSS | – and create promotable opportunities for our storytelling.

My thoughts: The only firing that I'm truly upset about is the fact that they fired Nicholas Bishop, because I always loved the dynamic between Megan and Peter. A big part of me was definitely hoping that they would become romantically involved at some point. As for John Carrol Lynch and Sonja Sohn being fired from the show, I liked their characters, but not to the point where Lynch and Sohn being fired would upset me. I can definitely live without them being on the show. I'm really glad that they didn't fire Jeri Ryan, because I've been a huge fan of hers' ever since she was on Star Trek: Voyager, and she's another one of my favorite things about Body of Proof.
