CSI *Season Finale*- "Way to Go" - 5/18

"Way to Go"
Spoiler:
The life of a team member hangs in the balance; the team investigates a dead man's lifestyle, which included routinely wearing corsets to alter his appearance.

I can't believe they friggin went ahead with the Sidle/Grissom thing. Dammit. Between that and the goofy "here's your fan club" line, the cheese factor was high.

Plus a Lindsay mention. Is she gonna be back next season, or was this just to compare and contrast with Ellie?

Man, talk about a dissappointing episode. I'm glad they didnt kill Brass, but just a very average episode. Felt like they suddenly remembered that they were filming a season finale and threw on the Sara crap on the end.

I guess it was too much to expect anything near the level of last years finale.

Yeah. They aren't ever going to top that. I still went in thinking they would though.

I can't really complain though. The case was fun, and I have been waiting for Grissom and Sara for no less than SIX YEARS of my life, so they did right by me. This really makes up for a lot of heart ache and pain on other shows of mine. Grissom and Sara, and I was totally unspoiled for it. Awesome.

Comment relating to the entire CSI universe:

Spoiler:
both Las Vegas and NY ended with their non-CSI detectives in a hospital bed recovering from serious on-the-job injuries. Look-out Frank Tripp!!!

I can't believe Grissom doesn't find Sara as annoying as I do.

Maybe, but I bet you they play with some bugs too.
I enjoyed the episode and was happy with the touch at the end. They had always hinted at an attraction between the two and this was subtle payoff. It reminded of the end scenes from Hill Street Blues with Joyce and Frank.
Not everyone season ender has to be as nail biting as last years.

Were all of the clues on the Diner sight revealed in this episode? I still can not figure out why Nick had blood on his neck and why the building(casino?) disappeared.

Personally, I'd much rather see Gil hook up with Catherine or Sophia. Catherine and Sophia are 10 times sexier than Sara. All those GSR fans are probably jumping for joy right now.

Nah, it would already be a dead topic.

I think Grissom-Sidle is what we're supposed to be talking about.

I think the guy that shot Brass also shot JFK. His magic bullet entered near Brass's right shoulder, and then lodged near Brass's heart. Or maybe Brass was born with all his organs reversed.

Yeah, I wish there was an explanation for the clues. The only changing-item clue that fit the episode was the sign turning to "Dead." But that was redundant, since the dead guy had a cop's badge. Though, he didn't actually die. So... uhh.... yeah, WTF did the clues mean!?

I came late to the table on this show - was this the first reference to cunnilingus on network tv?

Or it might have been on Ally McBeal as a play on words.

I loved the sara / grissom ending, mrs bdb hated it, she thinks that sara is unattractive to the nth degree, and can't stand when she is on screen.

Not only is she unattractive, but that wierd-ass speaking voice makes me want to shove pencils in my ears!
