Recap/Review 2x06 - Covering the Bases



"Rebel" was an episode just chalked full of yummy goodness. So, instead of our normal habit of posting reviews and recaps individually, we decided on posting with a bunch of links for this one, and we may continue this trend for next week's episode. Trust us on this one. You want to go check out everything we're posting here. You'll be laughing, giggling, and nodding your head in the affirmative. Would we steer you wrong?



theofficegossiptheory tumblr scored a hit as the gave us a check list rundown of 2x06. Some highlights are:Jane smiling about Maura’s coffee specifics
  • Maura nerding out and fangirling over a guy and Jane trying to distract her with coffee
  • Jane making fun of Maura’s trigonometry
  • Jane not wanting her wife to get into a tree because she looks “rediculous”

Go check out the rest of it here.

The Examiner.com has a review up:



Maura: “I always wondered what it would be like to have a mother who cut the crusts off my sandwiches.”

Jane: “Annoying.”

Brief but they have some nice pic from the episode. Go check it out here.

Fempop.com has their review (with lovely screen caps) up:



It’s Boston so it was kind of inevitable that we’d get a Revolutionary War reenactment at some point. I’m just sad Rizzoli and Isles aren’t dressed up as redcoats. Also one of the reenactors died. Ooops.

Elsewhere Rizzoli is watching sports why her girlfriend and her mom make croissants. Does…does Rizzoli live there now? Isles is freaking out in her Isles way because her mother is coming to town. Her mother has never seen her place and is staying in her guest house. Which means Rizzoli’s mom is moving in with Rizzoli for the foreseeable future. She’s thrilled.


Go check out the rest of it here. Subtexty!

NiceGirlsTV.com's review/recap:



When did historical reenactments become so hip? Last week Warehouse 13 had a plot involving Civil War reenactors, this week Rizzoli & Isles has a plot involving Revolutionary War reenactors. Yay history!

Butch In Progress has a great subtexty review/recap up:



[B+K] Girls, I’m sorry, but I refuse to write a subtext recap this week.

You need a reason motive? Well, because there was no subtext. None!

There was some maintext, some plain text, and a whole lotta gay text. (Which might explain, why this has so far been my favorite episode in Season 2. It’s either the gay, or the funny, or both.) So let’s just go with that ‘gay text recap’ from now on, ok? We’re not kiddin’ anyone anyway…

Great screen caps, fun review. Check the rest out here.

TVFanatic.com has her review up:

What did a sniper who can't aim, a sick parakeet and a dreaded visit from Mom have in common? They were all featured in the latest episode of Rizzoli & Isles, of course.

"Rebel Without a Pause" gave us all of the above and more in one of the most entertaining episodes of the season.

Check the rest here.

DeamonTV.com's review is up:



Mothers in general seemed to be an overall theme tonight. First there’s Jane and her mom – Jane trying to pretend she’s nothing like the woman and complaining about how clingy she is when we all know that she’s totally like Angela and would hate it if she didn’t hover all the time. Then there’s Maura and her mother – who are also quite alike but without all the clinginess. Jane and Maura each say that they wish they had the other’s mother but I like how in the end, Maura’s mother tried to get closer to her daughter and even joined them all at a bar.



Don't miss the rundown of their 'fav bits'. Check the rest here.

On a side note about the title of this episode- "Rebel Without a Pause"...



We thought is sounded vaguely familiar so, despite Dr. Isle's protest should she find out we did this, we hit up wikipedia. This is what we found:



Rebel Without a Pause is a single by hip hop group Public Enemy from their groundbreaking 1988 album, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back. The title is a spoof of Rebel Without a Cause, a 1955 drama movie.
Very interesting article. Go check it out.
