I'm glad I saw your post because I was going to skip over it. Is he in most of the episodes?

I’m on ep. 4.
He’s listed on the IMDb site.

and great character dialogs amongst
the cast. Will watch again .

(2,384 posts)This deserves to be a series about Detective Cupp....Shonda can do it!
I just don't have enough superlatives to describe it. It is pure joy that makes you want more and more!

(26,354 posts)I’m on my second viewing because my husband didn’t watch it the first time. I caught stuff the second time around I didn’t the first time. 😀

(25,081 posts)It reminded me a little of an Agatha Christie mystery where all the suspects gather at the end and the detective finally reveals the perpetrator. I thought it was a bit long though.
