Possibly the best TV show ever, The use of music was incredible. Bruckheimer is known for his action films, but he tweaked emotions in this series, Epic!
@LeastLikedCritic75 We ask ourselves that in a lot of situations, how can we live with ourselves knowing/doing/wishing...blank. Humans adapt to do one thing and that's to survive. So it's surprising what people could live with doing. That and having Alzheimer's helps since he can't remember doing it, just has random flashes. So he doesn't have to live with the guilt as unfair as that is.
@ilargitxo2 do the crime, do the time. it doesn't make a difference how old. there's no statute of limitations on murder. sad part is that he deprived his own son of a mother to which he has every right.
@Mattraction513 that sort of thing wasn't done in the 1930s. Cold Case not only indicts the offenders but the times in context to when the crime took place.
and i know the one they used in the episode is not frank sinatra because i remember the website listing a different name but itunes didn't have that recording otherwise i wouldn't have this issue
The only thing wrong with this scene is that Tuc Watkins looks to be several inches taller than Ralph Waite and the height difference between the younger and older versions when shown back to back is obvious. Otherwise, loved it since that I have always been a fan fo that song.
Men can gradually lose an inch between the ages of 30 to 70, and women can lose about two inches. After the age of 80, it's possible for both men and women to lose another inch
I have a real problem: I always get all my old "crooners" voices mixed up! I thought this was Crosby, not Sinatra. If not them, I also get Dean Martin mixed up. How do I keep it straight whether I'm hearing Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, or Dean Martin???
i know this is "always" written by irving berlin. but who is the singer?? cbs' website for this episode used to list it but i can't find it and i dont remember what it once said...
@Mattraction513 aside from the profanities, I agree, but people use the times in which they lived as an excuse for a lotta misbehavior. havin' lived as long as I have, I've seen how people use the times in which they live as rationalization. if you get past your colorful metaphors, you can see how the ethics of the times show the context of the crimes.
So, honestly... would they really be able to do anything to this guy? He's pushing 100, can't remember committing the murder or much of anything for that matter, and his son's basically begging them to let him die in peace. Awful lot of effort for the Philly PD to cross a few t's and dot a few i's I have to say.
They had to arrest him for what he did, regardless of anything. Now, if he'll serve time in jail or not, it's another thing. He still coldly killed his own wife and lied for years before actually getting alzheimer, so it would be kinda fair if they still wanted to arrest him. What is serving some years while old compared to being strangled while in your 20~30?
I could have done without this episode 2! Couldn't stand the husband! This was one of those episodes where you knew who the killer was early in the beginning. Also, whenever they test an elderly person's memory on this show...no one has 2 ever stop & think. They tend 2 know all the details right off the bat down 2 the dates & times.🤔
odd0odium she came back. She was about to stay to her husband and son. She went there to have the last dance with this guy and probably was the only chance to say thank you, i love you too, and good bye. ... Some people don't want to lose their chance. ... But then it was a hoax... So, yeah... Murder happened.
