White Collar - Diamond Exchange

As the show itself has pointed out, Neal‘s (Matt Bomer) attempt at reform means nothing until the power is put entirely in his hands, his anklet is removed, and the choice to go legitimate or return to his life of crime is put in his hands and his hands alone. Leading into the final commercial break of White Collar‘s Fifth Season’s finale (which if you are counting is one full year longer than Neal’s actual sentence) it appeared for an instant the show was ready to force some hard choices on Neal and Peter (Tim DeKay) as both had achieved everything they could have hoped for through their partnership. And in the last five minutes everything quickly falls apart as the show sets up one of its trademark cliffhangers leading into next season and what I expect, after a couple of episodes tying up loose ends, will be the return of the status quo.

Psych - Somebody's Got a Woody

When a murder suspect (Peter Stormare) breaks into the police station and takes Woody (Kurt Fuller) hostage, Trout (Anthony Michael Hall) organizes the troops for a siege and to prepare to take the morgue by force. Believing his abductor might actually be innocent, Woody convinces Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dulé Hill) to take the case and solve the murder of a recently-released con. And Juliet (Maggie Lawson), not willing to let Trout risk Woody’s life needlessly, puts her own life in danger by pretending to be the coroner’s daughter.

Sherlock - The Sign of Three

Much like the best man’s speech Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) gives at Watson‘s (Martin Freeman) wedding reception, “The Sign of Three” is messy and meandering while still delivering a terrific mystery and a slew of the series’ most humorous scenes. The episode could certainly be tightened up, but Holmes’ recitation of his recent cases with Watson to a captive (and often uncomfortable) audience certainly ranks as one of the show’s most memorable and largely entertaining episodes.

Bones - The Master in the Slop

While Bones (Emily Deschanel) pouts that Cam (Tamara Taylor) earns a prestigious Women in Science award that usually goes to her and is forced to work with Canadian Forensic Podiatrist Douglas Filmore (Scott Lowell) rather than one of her usual lab assistants, the Jeffersonian helps the FBI investigate the murder of a champion chess master whose remains were found in pig slop.
