This show is geting harder and harder to watch every week. It was never that good but it's approaching CSI:NY level of bad.

Though Horatio hiding in the shadows of the locker room at the end made me laugh, surprised he didn't have his sunglasses on.

Hmm, I think NY is about 100 times better than Miami.

"Looks like a mob hit."

This should be called CSI: Wisconsin with all the cheese in it. I still watch every week, stupid ABC/NBC not having ANYTHING on to challenge this.

Same here.

There was a little 'chicken or the egg' problem... which came first the movie poster of the guy swinging on the bridge or the notes of the murder on the last page of the script.

From what it sounds like, they got the advice for the murder scene from Cuzz and then had the poster commisioned and completed and hung really quick and then killed the guy and then turned in the first 40-pages with the notes of the scene?

... oh well.

And when did they start pronouncing Emily's character's name as 'Kelly' (Calleigh)?

Don't you watch Law & Order: Criminal Intent? Or any of the CSI shows, for that matter? Perps NEVER lawyer up. They love to confess.

I can't believe how unconcerned that college student who got off was. He set up a mob boss. Delko was right....he better watch his ass.

Isn't the only reason to watch this show because it is soooo bad and over the top it is funny? Does anybody actually watch this show because they think that it is a good intelligent show? No, they watch it for the same reason that people slow down to see the car wrecks on the side of the road.

I do agree that it does seem to be getting worse.

Yeah, this show was never all that great but it sure is getting even more campy.

Still looks sweet in HD though.

Even me, the biggest fan, felt this show was very lacking last night.

At least we still have valera.

Adn wolff is an idiot for not getting his eye checked out sooner.

The last three episodes have been way below par even for this show.

As somebody stated in last week thread's I think is time for CSI Miami to kill off another character or maybe two (Delco and Wolf). I think both just need to go.

Speed died because he all-of-a-sudden became lazy about cleaning his gun. How about Wolf accidently kills himself WHILE cleaning his gun? Then Delco could seek advice from Mike Logan and Andy Sipowicz about partners that keep dying.

ever since last season when the angry homeowner brought down an airplane flying overhead with a fucking laser pointer this show has been an utter joke. Its almost become a complete CSI parody.
