C.S.I. 11/1

Anyone else watch this show on a weekly basis? I don't read much talk about it here in the TV Forum. Tonight's episode was great! I really enjoyed the ending...really put things into perspective for Gill Grillsom.

Spoiler:

I was kind of zoned out, doing homework, was there some really big signifigance to him getting blood on himself from the suicide guy?

I think it was sort of symbolism to show Gil literally with blood on his hands since he felt sort of responsible for the guys situation. He now feels like the guys blood is on his hands.

Great show I try not to miss any episodes (although I miss Just Shoot Me, but I haven't watched that show in a couple of years anyway).

Gil is the man, although I do get kinda annoyed that he's always right (tonight's episode excluded )

Tonight's episode was defintiely the best of the season. Wow, what an ending! Terrific, as you said, it was nice to see Gil not 100% right, and to see the ripple effect from their assumptions go so astray.

I love this show. I think it sits atop my favorite shows list.

Typical Bruckheimer subtlety. "He feels like he has this kid's blood on his hands... so... let's put... BLOOD ON HIS HANDS! YEAH" Just kidding, I like Bruckheimer (most days) and C.S.I.

Wow, another atheist main character. I could see that one coming a mile away. How cliche. At least the priest wasn't involved in the murders... from the previews, I thought that was how it was going to be.

I love Jorja Fox ("Sara Sidle") on this show... when I gave this show a chance the first time, I didn't realize she was on there, and it was a pleasant surprise to see her.

Fire bad!

I don;t think he's an atheist... he said "I believe in God, not religion"

Or something like that.

Yeah, Grissom sees through all the organized religious clap-trap. The priest didn't have the snappiest of comebacks either.

BTW, didn't anyone notice fetchin' Gretchen (Sasha Alexander) from Dawson's Creek playing the prosecuting lawyer on CSI last night? I dig her, though didn't dig the dark brown hair.

I stand corrected. Mea culpa. Snappy comebacks don't make someone right or wrong, though. It's not clap-trap to everyone. Anyways, [/offtopic].

Yeah, Sasha Alexander, looking about five years older from her Dawson's Creek days (when she was a thirty-year-old played a college student)! That was neat. Let's see more of her.

And yeah, Jorja's front teeth aren't perfectly straight, but come on. She's gorgeous. Gorgeous Jorja.

Fire bad!

It's not the straightness of Jorja's front teeth, it's the sheer size of them!

It was good to see Sasha on the small screen again. Looks like her vacation from Capeside did her well.

This one really was a good one! The ending was really a cool part that showed some nice characterization.

Actually I was impressed with the priests early comeback to grisham, who annoys the hell out of me with his self righteous crapola.

The episode was okay, not one of my favourites. there are some things I could not understand, is it okay for CSI to just process someone standing right there?

I would have though at that point he would be in the police car, or off to lockup.

Grisham needs to be taken down a peg or 2 and the only person to do it would be Catherine.

Enjoyable show though, in my top 5.

I enjoyed the episode, but it was SO predictable.

Had ANY of the characters stopped to ask, "If he's innocent, who would he be willing to take the rap for?" the episode would have been much shorter. I told my father "He's probably burying bodies his brother or father killed" during the opening credits. Took Grisham over another half-hour to even ASK the frickin' question and run a background check on the guy and his family.
