Synopsis:



This is the last new CSI of 2008. It will return January 15th. William Petersen will make his final appearance on that episode.

Regarding Fishburne's character Dr. Raymond Langston:

It was alright, but NY and Miami were better.

I thought this was an excellent episode. When CSI does these multi-episode murder mystery story arcs, they're always top notch IMO.

The teleconference reminded me of the movie Copycat.

CPA-ESQ.

I liked this episode a lot.. but can't remember - did they catch the killer who killed that couple (Justine and ?)? how do they tie into this new serial killer guy?

Overall - much better that the let down with the miniature killer revisit last episode.

I concur - great episode last night. The introduction of Fishburne was well-handled.

Probably the best episode of CSI that I've seen in quite a while. Although I can't say I've been into it as much since the miniature killer storyline concluded.

I've missed most of the season but tuned in for this and enjoyed it quite a bit.

Really enjoyed how they introduced Larry

Michael Corvin

Excellent way to introduce Fishburne. Excellent episode, although it was confusing as hell.

I liked all the little character moments when Grissom addressed each CSI personally, especially Wendy and David. Very touching. The others; Doc, Brass, Catherine & Hodges were pretty solid. Could have been better if they didn't try and squeeze them all into one episode. I guess Nick & Greg will get a moment with him in part II.

they never caught the killer of the "S&M Couple". They didn't have any evidence to lead them anywhere, except a shoeprint.

But they found that the shoeprint that was left in the blood of the "plastic bag guy" matched the shoeprint they had found before. They also then remarked how the S&M guy had 9 post-mortem stab wounds. At the time, they thought they were S&M related, but in this episode, they realized they were the next in the DJK killer's (or his accomplice or a copycat) line of victims.


now i have a question - The dead body at the end - with the bike. Was that one of the students in the lecture hall? The lighting wasn't great. I thought it was the guy that asked the other girl out for a drink, but couldn't confirm.

Also wanted to comment on the use of the extreme zoom to see the logos on the concert-goers hats.

They took the video off of a website! And could have that level of detail? That's the one thing about the show that just continues to annoy me. I can deal with fingerprint matches being found in seconds rather than the actual days it probably takes to find a match... But that visual stuff is so unbelievable. And the worst part is, it's that stuff that typically ends up being a big turning point in the case (like the time they zoomed in on footage from a security camera and enhanced the image enough to read a bar code off of a plane ticket in the guy's hand).

ok, annoyance rant over.

I thought the same thing. You'd be unlikely to get that kind of resolution from uncompressed HD camcorder footage, especially in that sort of light, let alone something from a low-res camera that is compressed to Youtube-type standards.
