05.30 Law And Order
06.30 Friends
Law And Order. Season 20, Episode 3. "Great Satan" Informant & Terrorists.
Superb. The usual twists and turns lead from a guy (Ben Youcef) staging fake kidnappings to two terrorist cells operating in the city. Ben Youcef gives a terrific performance as his character dives in and tries to help the police nab the terrorists. Some times he goes too far, and materials supplied by Lupo and co. end up being used in a real explosion.
The story weaves over and back, and seems more exciting and urgent than usual, and Ben Youcef stays central the whole way through. Amazing performer. The ending will bring a tear to the eye. A+
Friends. Episode 18. "The One Where the Monkey Gets Away"
The first episode of Friends to end on a proper cliffhanger, thus establishing the show as equal parts soap and comedy.
Before that happens, we get Ross summing up the courage to tell Rachel his feelings before arriving home to find that she has allowed his pet monkey to escape!!
The gang works together to get it back and Jennifer Aniston wears the sexiest outfit she ever wore on the show.
Highlight? Law And Order (Ben Youcef)
