Season Seven Wish Lists

[lillyrush1977]

A two parter like Mindhunters then The Woods. That was really well done!

That's funny

1)I want Eddie back, I think that they were so cute together and quite frankly, he's hot...and so is she.
2)A good relationship with her father, Lilly being taken care of for a change
3)I'm with you guys on the undercover cases, that'd be cool
4)Frankie to get lost...or really go psycotic...or maybe she ends up as the doer on one of the cases. Maybe She killed Elisa J/K
5)Older cases, but some recent ones will be ok
Can't think of anymore right now
Oh and Kat & ADA Bell (soooo sweet )

[eduardodelroice]

The show Cupid was cancelled so maybe Bobby Canavale could come back to Cold Case

[The Reverend Bizarre]

But what about the immortals that still inhabit earth? Maybe have a Ghost Whisperer and Cold Case crossover. I'd be a happy gal and I think so would TRB! George Marks haunts Lilly Rush at the precinct headquarters!

CBS presents; a two hour crossover event between Cold Case and Ghost Whisperer "JUMPING THE SHARK"

(in which Lilly Rush discovers that the reason she sees dead people is because she's a ghost whisperer.)

*coughs* On the topic.

- More odd, psychotic based cases
- More one artist episodes (btw, we've had Nirvana and just recently Pearl Jam as two single episode artists in the grunge genre. Anyone want to take bets on who the next single artist 'grunge, alt rock' group will be? )
- More mind screwing episodes.

Ahahaha that would be sweet! ;D

Oh! I forgot! I'd also like to see more humour. This year was wickedawesome with the tie cutting,the friendly banter, whatnot. I'd love to see more of that.

[zoé]

My wishes in no particular order:

- no time wasted on outside relationships. Except when it's done in the background and it produces more scenes between the detectives (like Kat's blind date). And most of all, no follow up on the lame threat by Frankie, please!
As for ADA Bell, I am really torn because I already like his character and it could be funny to watch I-don't-do-dates-Kat in action, but I am very wary of how it's going to be handled.

- keep up the great team friendship moments

- follow up with the Stillman/Pat altercation and as a result, a bit of pressure on Stillman and the cold case team... that would allow Stillman to have an interesting storyline and also to reveal everyone's attachment to the cold cases.

- no more Lilly drama. As much as I love her character, I think this season finale gave her the closure she deserves. If they could only drop something about Christina and why Cooper never mentioned her...

- moving cases! I don't care about the era of the flashbacks, I just want more emotions. And when it is not that moving, I always enjoy a good twist in the whodunit.

- take more liberty with the formula (like the build-up of Officer Down and the 2 part finale), more diversity (a few premeditated murders, antipathic victims, another serial killer, doers who get away with it - there were rare to none in season 6) and more continuity between episodes

- single artist episodes: I know it's tough with the budget cuts, but I'd like a Pink Floyd, Led Zep or Yes 70s episode.

- I do prefer too when the detectives see the victims in the end. It shows their investment in the case and I always thought that the victims shows up to witness the closure of their close ones AND to thank the detective(s) for solving a case that everyone had forgotten about.

- if this is the show's final season, prepare a nice closure for each character.

Totally agree with those two requests. I used to wish for more and more personal storylines, but I have been so disappointed with all of them, that I got tired. After they killed Lilly's mom I started not to care so much about her personal life.

Unlike most people I don't want to see Lilly in a happy relationship. I think it would make her incredibly boring. What I always liked about Lilly was the fact that she was sad and had unresolved past issues. I like the idea that some things in life just can't be fixed, and I don't want her to make peace with all her personal problems.

About the cases, I'd like more cases in which the victims are children. If made correctly those the most touching episodes, in my opinion.

And like others I woul love to see older cases, from the 40's to the 70's.

That'd be great ;D

[jambled]

My requests, no order, just as I think of them...

- Christina back (where did she go? I have when characters just drop off the face of the planet).
- Some Lilly-centric man-drama. I know, everyone else seems to prefer this stays out of the show but I love it. I stopped watching most of S6 because there was just nothing there for Lilly.
- Ray. ray ray ray ray ray. Back. With his Harley. And his leather jacket. And his iresistable blue eye/dark hair combination. And his Lilly secrets. Ah, Ray.
- A good Indie-music episode. Death cab, silversun pickups, subways, modest mouse, etc etc. I would love to see an episode close out with I will Follow You into the Dark. Or Soul Meets Body. Or Title and Registration. And I can definitely feel the angst already if they use Someday You will be Loved. Hell, make it a Death Cab only episode.
- A seriously creepy case a la George. Bring back the killers with the inner motivation, not the external one. I'm talking serial killer stuff. Let's tear a page from the Criminal Minds book and get a crazy slaughterhouse episode. I don't know if that's happened on Criminal Minds... But speaking of Criminal Minds, the guy (La Montague) that married JJ eventually - he should show up for Lilly. They'd be perfect. I crave more of his New Orleans accent. And he does older women - *cough*Courtney Cox Arquette in Dirt*cough*
- A new hair style. On Lilly. And Kat. And let's mix it up - Jeffries may as well try something new too. And Scotty.
- Franny to curl up and die. Can anyone say trailer park?
- Less Kat. I know, again, this won't win me popularity votes but I'm just over her. What happened to Lilly being the sole female detective investigator homicide gun wielding whatever? Hm?
- More mascara
- Another black and white episode
- More humour and one liners

[eduardodelroice]

@jambled: Oh yes! Ray back!

[ali]

I usually don't have many wishes: I like surprises!

But I agree with jambled:

And, then, I'd like to see:
- more older cases
- Eddie (or Ray) back
- what happened to Christina

[lillyfan]

I've loved Cold Case for the different genre's of music they use, but I would like to see a couple episodes with country music in them. And not just by one artist either like the Tim McGraw or Johnny Cash ones. I'd love to see an episode end with "Who You'd Be Today" by Kenny Chesney, I think that'd just be an appropriate song for someone who died young.

[longislanditalian2]

If any love comes back, the writers need to keep whomever is there. I'm tired of this whole Lilly-I'm-Getting-Dumped-all- the -time -bit. Boring..

NO RAY, I'm sick of him ( No offense to anyone who likes him), Lilly out grew him. Plus she's settled he isn't the type to do that anyway..


I do want to see her pull her life together before she finds someone, she's clearly messed up emotionally.



- A black widow murder case, that could be based on a real murder.

[eduardodelroice]

Another one for me:
-less soap opera: That's one of the reasons WaT was cancelled. Too much personal drama. That season finale was all dramatic :/

I agree, that's why I love this show so much. The cases are more important than the personal drama.

[Gina]

1. Scilly
2. Recent cases in the new millenium
3. No deaths
4. Lilly is normal
5. A happy ending.

[longislanditalian2]

I'd like to see more dark, gruesome cases. The only thing I 'd want in Lilly's life is her to have her father and his family there for her. See in that way the show isn't soap operish.

2. Cold Case to move back to it's 9pm slot of during the week


3. A 2 hours cold Case episode


4. Seeing both Stillman and Jefferies retiring, and how it will affect everyone

5. Scotty finally growing up

6. Lilly having some fun outside of work

That's exactly why CC has kept is status -> NO soap opera.
We have as little as it is needed.

Personally, I think that WaT was taken over by Antony LaPaglia and Poppy Montgomerry's chemistry. OK, these two people were incredible on camera. Jack and Sam had love chemistry, it was too obvious. The writers just didn't balance it. They overdid it and the show ended like it ended... (Even Jack and Sam didn't end up together finally...!! )
In CC this never happenned and will never happen. The chemistry has to do with all of the six characters. "They melted together", as KM has stated. As for the "thing" with the two main characters the writers put a stop or a pause. I think that they overdo this "stopping" sometimes (on the contrary to the others) but, anyway, CC remains cold cases... That's the basic!

Another wish for season 7 I forgot! It is mentioned by others too:
NO MORE Frankie!
I wish this threaten "This was a mistake for you" won't have any continuity in next season!!

[The Reverend Bizarre]

Here's my wishlist of things I DON'T want to see in Season 7

1. No revolving door. If Lilly has to be killed off, end the show.

2. Better yet, no character deaths.

3. No episodes in which the victim actually had to die lest they created a time parodox. *cough*Devil's Music*cough*

4. Less cryptic Lilly drama. The one thing that's always bothered me about the personal storylines is that we really don't learn much of anything. "Into the Blue" was the exception to this.

Counselor: So tell me aboot your'z problemz, Mizz Rush.

Lilly: *deadpan* no.

Counselor: Yez I zee. Mmm hmm, very interezting.

You get my drift
