Cold Case

Daniel Holtz was a college baseball player who was secretly gay He was found beaten to death behind a gay bar in 1964. The suspects are a wide range of gay bashers. From his friends, to police, to the bullies who lived nearby.



Eh, maybe it's just because the secret underworld of gay people back in the '60s doesn't interest me much, but this episode was just relatively unentertaining to me. It's all about what Daniel did to try to keep his secret a secret. I think it's sad though to see the way gay people were treated back than, but then again things haven't changed that much.



This episode really let you get know the victim though so I was quite sad when it showed him getting killed in the end.

I liked the whole black and white flashback to the 1960 scenes. I find Cold Case educational as well as entertaining. It's nice to see how people were in the olden days. I like to see the difference between todays society and the society back then. Brandon Routh made a cameo appearance in the episode which was nice. I loved watching this episode. It was funny when Jeffries and Vera were asking people about a crossdresser because they both got so nervous. Cold Case seems to be getter better and better as the episodes go by. Keep up the good work.

Another fan said that one of Cold Case's attractions is that it shows how society's views have evolved over many issues. In this episode, we see how gay people were treated in the 1960s and the present day. Danny, the victim, was a good-looking law student. He had a girlfriend, and he was part of his school's baseball team. But he's gay His parents initially refused to acknowledge this, much less to consider this as a factor in his murder. But as decades passed without his killer/s getting caught, his mother finally approached the Cold Case team to dig up Danny's case.



The scene I liked best was when Hank (Danny's lover) visited Danny's mom in the hospital. She realized that Hank really did love Danny, and said "I"m glad."



Watch out for Brandon Routh's (Superman Returns) small role as the young Hank!

What can i say: so politically and socially right, that

i had to love the episode. again corny, but full of beautiful

gay people, only wanting to have their share of life

and the ugly "normal" ones, hating everything different. what i really liked, was the scene when the retired policeman, showed to Lilly the photo of his gay son and his friend. And when a respected citizen was outed as the former friend of the victim. as if we didnt know it before: gays are just as normal as the rest of the world. the abnormal ones are the homophobic one.
