Overall the article is good, though I have a couple concerns:

Shouldn't the full names be listed first in the plot section, or do they only go by the last names.
- In other Homicide articles, it's been just the last names. Generally, I've found in television episode articles, usually only one name is used in the plot summaries; it's usually the first names, but in this case most characters refers to each other by last name in Homicide so I use last names instead. I can add the full names if you really feel strongly about it, but it may push the plot summary past the length requirements in WP:TVPLOT. These Homicide episodes have so many subplots and ensamble characters that it's a challenge to keep them succinct. :) — Hun ter Ka hn 01:52, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"Barry Levinson, executive producer of Homicide: Life on the Street, hand-picked Taylor to direct the episode after watching Taylor's 1988 half-hour film, That Burning Question, which Taylor made as a thesis for a seminar taught by film director Martin Scorsese." A cite would be helpful for this.
- This was meant to be covered by the cite at the end of this paragraph, but I added an additional one to make it clear. — Hun ter Ka hn 01:52, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'll put the article on hold, and once those couple issues are fixed I'll pass the article. Wizardman _{Operation Big Bear} 03:34, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
