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.

Psych - Remake A.K.A. Cloudy... With a Chance of Improvement

While cracking several jokes about unnecessary remakes (and making quips about things we know will come to pass over the show’s eight-year run), Psych turns its attention to unnecessarily remake one of the show’s First Season episodes “Cloudy With a Chance of Murder.” Bringing back some, but not all, of the episode’s original guest-stars (including Michael Weston as the defense attorney in far over his head) while adding in Ralph Macchio, Ray Wise, and Ed Lover, Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dulé Hill) head into the courtroom as legal consultants intent on saving a preschool teacher (Lindsay Sloane) who is charged with the murder of a local weather man (Dana Ashbrook).
