Rizzoli & Isles (TV series)/YMMV


 * Complete Monster Charles Hoyt.
 * Crosses the Line Twice: In the second episode, an old lady insults the aged detective who comes by to ask about her son, due to their history together. Then she calls Rizzoli a "greaseball dyke cop". Then she uses a sardonic tone when addressing the black Frost as one of those "Affirmative-Action cops. Which island did you come from? Do you speak English?" This all happens in the space of about two minutes. Oh, and she's clearly Irish.
 * Fan Preferred Couple: Based on the amount of Fan Fiction that has quickly accumulated, we have the femslash couple Rizzles.
 * Genius Bonus: Whenever the Boston skyline is depicted, the weather beacon on top of the Old Hancock Building will match whatever weather might be shown in the following scenes. (It'll blink or shine steadily in either red or blue; the color patterns and their meanings are well known to Boston residents.)
 * Hey Its That Guy: Anyone watching the show who grew up on 90's Disney Channel will probably do a double-take upon realizing Jett Jackson is one of the cops.
 * Just Here for Godzilla: Some fans of Rizzoli & Isles may be attracted to the show because they are fans of Angie Harmon and Sasha Alexander from their old shows. Based on the ratings, it may now be a case of Come for The X Stay For The Y (in this case, come for Harmon and Alexander, stay for the quality of the show).
 * Les Yay: The series has its own Ho Yay page.
 * Narm: The ending to the season 2 finale. The use of Soundtrack Dissonance is reminiscent of a certain Me Me.
 * Nightmare Fuel: Everything involving Charles Hoyt. The way he randomly targets his victims them grusomely murders them is horrific. Most of his murders are never shown on screen, but they leave a lot to the imagination.
 * X Meets Y: Word of God says its The Rockford Files meets Sex and The City; most fans, however, say its Cagney and Lacey mixed with your Police Procedural du jour, Bones and Castle being the most common.
