Bobby: I am thrilled to be here with my castmates from "Third Watch". You know I'm saying it cause you're here. You know our first guest as the strapping firefighter Jimmy Doherty, [applause from the audience and Eddie must have thanked Bobby cause Bobby smiles and mouths "you're welcome] please say "Hello" to Eddie Cibrian. [more applause and some hooting from Kim, Coby and Jason] Our next guest plays my partner, paramedic, Kim Zambrano, a girl who doesn't know a good thing when she sees it [Kim laughs], help me welcome the beautiful, the sexy, Kim Raver. Our next guest plays the cocky, but lovable cop Maurice Bosco Boscorelli for the 55th precinct. Put your hands together for Jason Wiles [applause]. Finally you know our last guest as rookie cop, Ty Davis, also from the 55th, give it up for the former Big Foot model [Coby laughs], Coby Bell. [applause] And before we get going let's take a look at some of the best albums of the 90's. 

[a montage is played, of different album covers and random people talking about their picks]

Bobby: Okay, it's time to get to our guest's choices. Eddie, let's start with you. What's your second choice?

Eddie: Well, Bobby. [he says it pointedly and Kim laughs, so does the audience] I think, ah, to have this category Best Album of the 90's and not include a rap album, especially...

Bobby: A crime.

Eddie: Yeah, it would be a crime. 

Bobby: That's right.

Eddie: So, I'm gonna say "Life After Death", the Notorious BIG. [applause, Notorious plays] Baby, baby, baby.

Bobby: That's a good album. It's a good album. I think it's the best hip-hop album of the 90's for sure. It's got everything, jazz... Everything. Everything.

Eddie: Everything. Yeah. It's a shame that he got, you know, actually got murdered right before...

Bobby: The album came out two weeks before he died.

Eddie: Yeah, yeah, so...

Bobby: Good album, though. Okay, Kim Raver, your second choice.

Kim: My second, I'm going with someone who's timeless, who combines the 70's with the 90's. I'm going with "Supernatural" Santana. [applause, "Smooth" plays].

Bobby: I think it's a great album. The only thing I, the only thing I question is it really isn't, it's not quintessential like Santana, he's been recording for 30 years.

Kim: Yeah, but that's cause of that reason. And he's combining people like Lauren Hill, Dave Matthews.

Coby: And we're talking about album, you know what I mean, not just Santana, so it's an album with a bunch of different artists on it...

Kim: Who are 90's.

Coby: So, it's a tied album.

Bobby: [to Coby] You can leave, anytime, all right? [Coby gets up as if to leave, Kim laughs, the audience laughs] All right. Jason Wiles, what's your second choice?

Jason: Ah, well, I like rock and I like southern rock and I like attitude and this band has a lot of attitude and my second choice is "Shake Your Moneymaker" by the Black Crowes.

Kim&Bobby: Yeah! [the audience applauds]

Bobby: That's a good choice. That's a good choice. [Jason and Kim 'zizipp' someone together, but I can't see whom] Why exactly do you like this album?

Jason: Why?

Bobby: Yeah, I mean of all the other albums.

Jason: I just think it reminds me of the 90's. For me it was the personal, you know, the personal ten years of [laughs] Black Crows. [Bobby makes a comment and laughs] What? 

Bobby: Nothing, nothing.

Jason: You wanna go?

Bobby: No! [Kim laughs out loud, they all start talking playfully, but it's all too vague, sorry] 

Eddie: Every song on that album is great. Every song on that album is great. 

Jason: I love every song on it, it's not a kind of fast forward album.

Coby: Jay, on a scale of not gorgeous to gorgeous where would you, where would you put that album?

Jason: He's pretty gorgeous. ['Yeah' from the audience]

Coby: It's gorgeous. So there you go. [Bobby makes a funny concerned face]

Jason: Not 'gorgeous' gorgeous!

Coby: Not like gorgeous people, it's a gorgeous album!

Bobby: Wow. Right. [laughs] I could just, I could just keep this going, we don't have to go to the next part, men.

Coby: What do you mean by gorgeous...

Bobby: Coby Bell, what's your second choice?

Coby: All right, this was extremely difficult for me to choose. I sat and I made a list of like, you know, ten of my favorite albums from the 90's. So what I had to do was say, okay, which of these albums can I listen to from beginning to end and look at it as a piece of art from the beginning.. the entire album, not have to fast forward to any song, and dig each song as much as the next song. And I found that to be the case with an album called "The Miseducation of Lauren Hill". [applause]

Kim: Yeah! That's why I combined it. That's why I combined it with Santana, cause I have that same one, you know?

Bobby: Great album. It's a great album, yeah.

Coby: I mean, she, she didn't skimp on it, on this one, you know, she did the writing, it's so well produced, 

Bobby: It's poetic.

Kim: Lyrical.

Coby: Yeah, I mean her voice is just so beautiful, and then her skill as an MC, you know, she's right up there with the best of them, so I had to give her respect.

Bobby: Yep. Great, great album. [more applause] Okay. Now it's a time to  hear from a member of our studio audience, [he laughs]. Wow, this is treapy. We've got Marcy from Coconut Creek, Florida and I, Marcy, Marcy,  it was just...

Coby: Sort of set up.

Bobby: Not sort of set up at all, this is a surprise to me. Marcy was my first girlfriend in high school, in Florida, in Coconut Creek. [audience laughs and applauds, Bobby laughs] And she's here!

Kim: This is not real. Unreal!

Bobby: Wow. All right. Hi, Marcy, how are you?

Marcy: Hi, how are you, Bobby. I'd like you to meet my husband. [laughs]

Bobby: Yeah! [more laughs] What do you wanna put on The List?

Marcy: Okay, well, I like a wide variety of music, but I can't help but think of the 90's with something without Garth Brooks. Garth Brooks' "Double Live" is my choice. [applauds] Yeah. And the reason is because it's a compilation of all of his CDs, and, he, you know when he toured the country, and 

Bobby: He's great live. It's a great country, yeah.

Marcy: It's live, right, so, and like he said, like Coby said, it's one song to the next that is great.

Bobby: Excellent. Thank you.

Marcy: Thank you.

Eddie: You're glad she didn't mention anything that went back, you know what I mean?

Bobby: I wrote a song about her.

Eddie: Oh-oh.

Kim: Oh,  let's hear it! Let's hear it!

Bobby: I performed the song. 

Kim: Let's hear it!

Bobby:  I won the first place in the talent show. I'm so mad at you still.

Kim: Come on! Let's hear it!

Bobby: We have to take a short... it was grammatically incorrect, the entire song. We have to take a short break, but when we come back we'll get our guest's number one choices plus more picks from our viewers. Stay with us.
 

Kim: Yeah!

Bobby: Thank you. Our topic today... the cast of Third Watch!!! [everyone bursts out applauding] All right! Our topic today [laughs] is the Best Album of the 90's. We've already heard the second choices from our panelists and the studio audience, now it's time to get to the number one picks. Okay, Eduardo, what's your number one pick?

Eddie: My number one pick, it's actually funny, cause it's kinda like the music I kind of grew up with and then I saw this documentary of this guy who went to Cuba and brought these musicians together and it was just phenomenal to me. And now it's in my CD and I just can't turn it off. And it's the Buena Vista Social Club. [applause]

Kim: Yeah! 

Eddie: Thank you. My favourite album of the 90's. It's an unbelievable album. 

Bobby: It's a great album.

Eddie: And then the whole story behind it, too.

Bobby: Yeah, yeah, yeah. And the order of the songs is perfect and it's just it's a dynamite album and they're great old song that I never thought, you know, grew up the same way, listening to my grandmother sing them and it's a great album, great musicians.

Eddie: Yeah.

Coby: And it's great that these artists are getting recognition that they deserve, you know, world wide.

Bobby: Okay, Kim, what's your first choice?

Kim: My first choice I think really represents the 90's and also where the music is going. It's an incredible combination of hip-hop and... I just I think that one of hard things to do in an art form is do something new, and I think he really accomplishes that, and it's my favourite thing to do and it's "Play" and it's Moby.

Bobby: Moby. [applause]

Kim: Yeah!

Eddie: It's a fun album, isn't it? It's a fun album. I can't wake up in the morning and put it on, though, you know what I'm sayin'?

Bobby: Why, why not?

Eddie: I don't know. I don't know. I have to like sort of be in the mood. But it's a great album.

Kim: But he has combined such an amazing sorts of different things, delta blues with hip-hop with everything, I mean, it's incredible. And gospel, really, I just think it's an amazing combination of things.

Coby: Yeah.

Bobby: Cool. Won't be there at the end, but...

Eddie: Woh-oh-oh! 

Bobby: Jason Wiles.

Kim: Wow! Every day, ladies and gentlemen, every day!

Bobby: I'm kidding! Jason. What's your first choice?

Jason: Yeah, like Moby this guy is definitely bring something new, original, but unlike Moby he plays an unbelievable guitar and he surrounds himself with an unbelievable drummer and violinist. And this guy I started listening to in a bar in Clorado, in Boulder, he came on a scene and became a big hit there and I've caught some of his black market discs before he came out. I really love this guy, I think he is, I think he is the epithamy of the 90's and... Dave Matthews. [loud applause] And I didn't know... I wasn't sure, I wasn't sure which album because there are so many albums so I just tend to go right to the first album when it grabbed me. "Remember Two Things", Dave Matthews Band. And Band. The whole...

Coby: Isn't this the 19-year-old prodigy kid, is that the one?

Jason: Yeah.

Coby: His base player is awfully good.

Jason: Yeah. [pointing to Bobby, who was looking at his watch] He doesn't care.

Bobby: I'm sorry, what did you say?

Jason: You don't care.

Bobby: You know, that's... they're fine. [everyone laughs] Coby Bell, what's your first choice?

Coby: All right, like I said this was extremely difficult. I wanna give a little honorable mention to a band called "The Slackers". Many people may or may not have heard of them. It's a, I'm really into... like you guys know, I'm really into like rock steady music, reggae music, scott music and they're just the band that I really like. The band that I chose...

Eddie: Hey, hey, hey...

Coby: I gotta, I gotta give'em, cause it was in between those two, I couldn't, I couldn't choose.

Bobby: And you chose the one we've heard of even less. [everyone laughs]

Coby: Okay, okay. It's true, but you gotta go with me. This is not the most popular album of the 90's, this is the best album of the 90's, what I feel to be the best album of the 90's. And this album when I put it from beginning to end, I love it. It just makes me happy. It's a band called Hepcat and the album is called "Scientific". [applause] 

Eddie: [pointing to the screen with the clip] Here's they are, right there, that's them!

Coby: Seriously, I mean, it's... You may not have heard of them, but now you have. And everybody should go check them out, their titles.

Eddie: Now that guy kinda looks familiar. 

Bobby: That guy is an actor, right? 

Kim: Yeah.

Coby: Yeah, the dude from, the dude from...

Bobby: "Becker"!

Coby: Becker, yes.

Kim: Becker.

Bobby: "Becker", yes. Of course, ah, you'll be watching Third Watch on Monday nights, not "Becker", but... [everyone laughs]. Once again it's time to give voice ot our viewers. We have Robert from San Diego. What would you like to add?

Robert: I say "Siamese Dreams," by...

Bobby: Excellent. Smashing Pumpkins.

Robert: ... Smashing Pumpkins. 

Bobby: Good album.

Robert: They have... [applause, he stops]

Bobby: Why do you, why do you like this album so much?

Robert: They have some songs on the album that are common collective, but also loud and very expressive, so...

Bobby: Cool. It's true. It's very true. Good album, man, good choice.

Kim: Yeah, good choice.

Bobby: Good choice. ALl right. We've also been hearing from you at home who've logged in on to vh1.com and we've selected one e-mail choice to be added to The List. Jen from Chicago writes: "I understand there are nude pictures of Jason Wiles on the Internet..." What is this? [everyone laughs and applauds] I'm just kidding. Jen... 

Coby: I am going to have their laptops checked.

Bobby: Jen. "There's a great album, "Ten" by Pearl Jam. It's not only the best album of the 90's. It is close to being the perfect album. Every track rocks, and Eddie sings from the soul. Of all the grunge music that came out of the Seattle scene Pearl Jam sound is the real thing." Really great album. And you know what's weird about this album, "Ten"? There's ten songs on it.

Jason: What?

Kim: Wow.

Bobby: Weird, I know. Okay. We've got a great list, but it's elimination time and we need take four off the list, so let's look up there [on the screen]. Eddie, let's start with you.

Eddie: Hmm, let's see. What do you think?

Coby: Eddie!

Eddie: Oh, come on, it's just, and no disrespect from me, [Coby is making all kinds of pleading sounds and grunts] but, you know... [more sounds] I don't see... [more sounds] I really, it's just seems to me that we have to encompass, you know, little more main stream, I mean, for more... to put it on The List, so I think the Hepcat is, ah, going.

Bobby: Honestly, we have to know them, we have to know what they're...

Coby: It's okay, it's okay, but but but buy the album! Buy the album! Check it out.

Eddie: Maybe this is what's gonna give them the big boost that they need, to popularity, you know what I mean, cause...

Coby: Oh, yeah, yeah, you're right, I understand.

Bobby: Okay, all right. Kim.

Kim: Oh, let me see, ah... The audience is gonna wanna kill me, but I think... [to Bobby] What was that?

Bobby: No, no, I'm just... No nothing, I was just...

Kim: Are you whispering? [laughs] Which were your choices?

Bobby: I don't want you to take off one of your own, cause... What do you think?

Kim: I think Garth Brooks. 

Bobby: I can't let you do that!

Kim: I know! 

Eddie: The Double Live? The Double Live one?

Kim: I know the audience will be upset about that, but I mean, we're talking about Lauren Hill...

Bobby: [to Marcy] You know what? You broke up with me! So...! [everyone laughs] 

Kim: Exactly, you see, I was just backing you up, man!

Bobby: Jason.

Jason: Ugh. Kim...

Kim: Oh, no! Zizzip! This next episode, man! You know, we've got a scene together, this episode, man.

Jason: It's just something about it.

Kim: This episode, man!

Jason: I just, so many great musicians up there. 

Bobby: To include a guy who spins records, right?

Jason: Moby's gotta go. "Play".

Bobby: It's a great album, but...

Kim: The future, man. Fine, go ahead.

Jason: Future. 

Bobby: All right. Coby Bell.

Coby: See, I'm the last one that has to pick, this is tough. Cause those are all tied. 

Bobby: Let's see, "Shake Your Moneymaker"?

Coby: Buena Vista Social Club can't do it. Can't do it.

Bobby: "Siamese Dreams", "Supernatural"...

Coby: Can't do it. All right. Jay-Dubs.

Bobby: I think Jay gets his.

Coby: Jay-Dubba-Dubba, Jay-Dubba-Dubba, I'm sorry, man. Only because, only because of my ignorance, I haven't heard this album enough to... only when I was at your house I heard it , I haven't; heard it enough to really analyze it and check it out so I'm gonna have to... 

Kim: See, he's taking the fall himself.

Coby: The Black Crowes I'm gonna have to take it off.

Eddie: Oh, that's a good album, though. It's a good album. I'm with you, though, Jay. I'm with you.

Bobby: I wanna add one to The List. Can I add one? I wanna add one to The List. I wanna add...

Eddie: Why don't you take one off?

Bobby: Well, what? I don't wanna take one off. Cause I'm the host, that's why.

Eddie: Oh, right.

Bobby: So, I'm gonna add the album that I listen to from beginning to end including all the like, all the dialogue stuff that's in between, it's Wycleeff's "The Carnival".

Coby: Very nice. Very nice.

Bobby: It's a great album and it's got hip-hop and rap and it's got "Gone through November", a great song, Bob Dylan's in the video, so you gotta go with them.

Coby: Oh yeah, oh yeah.

Kim: That's what's on "Supernatural", it's got Lauren Hill, it's got Wycleef, it's got them all on there.

Bobby: I didn't didn't kick off "Supernatural", did I?

Kim: I know, I'm just sort of like laying it out.

Bobby: During the commercial break our studio audience, that's them, will cast their votes and when we come back we'll reveal the top three best albums of the 90's, so stay with us, don't move.
 

Eddie: Break it off, break it off! 

Bobby: Do they...? Okay. Number three! [he gestures for ppl to stop drumming - or 'cut it!'] Number three! Damn! 

Kim: He doesn't like to be upstaged.

Bobby: Number three is The Dave Matthews Band, "Remember Two Things". [applause] There you go. Number two... Santana, "Supernatural"! [Kim starts doing a little victory dance, applause] And the number one choice...

Coby: I think we're gonna need the drum roll.

Kim: Yeah.

Bobby: Drums please! [loud drumming] And the number one choice for the best album of the 90's is "The Miseducation of Lauren Hill" by Lauren Hill. [loud applause, Coby does a victory dance ;-)] I wanna thank... I wanna thank my fellow castmates from "Third Watch" [applause]. Don't forget, it's Monday nights, ten o'clock on NBC. I'd also like to thank our studio audience for being here. And of course you at home. I'm Bobby Cannavale, this is VH1, we see you next time on The List. take care.

The cast gets up from their seats and starts goofing, dancing around. Bobby hugs everyone. Fade to credits.

As a personal comment I would like to add to all of you who missed the show that it's been one of the best shows with a cast members of one of my favourite TV series that I had such a great time watching. Bobby is an excellent host, he nailed it right there. The audience and the cast almost constantly laughed. You could see that the cast gets along VERY well - especially Coby with Jason and Bobby with Kim. They have just the best rappaport.

And one finally comment -- too bad Bobby Caffey doesn't have many reasons to smile so broadly - what a wonderful smile Bobby Cannavale has!
