C.S.I. **Season Finale** - "For Gedda" -- May 15, 2008
Surprised no there were no threads on this yet. Loved the season finale.

Pretty good. The entire episode did seem rushed, though I understand why...
But in this shorten season of CSI, probably the best episode and a great finale. |
I guess there's NO chance of Warrick ever come back :lol:
|
As the undersheriff kept talking at Warrick's window I figured he must be the rat, but I have to say I wasn't expecting what followed.
Good episode, it was nice to Jay Karnes on the show. I hope he gets more work. |
When they mentioned the rat earlier, I suspected the undersheriff.
Thing is, plotwise, he kills Warrick because Warrick won't give up finding the mole. Um... by killing Warrick won't his friends work hard at finding the rat now? So he kills one person only to have 4 others hunt him down? Well, at least they'll have a season-long story next year that could be interesting. |

One thing bugged me about the ep: why did Warrick park in that empty alley? I know WHY in the story's arc, but didn't the diner have a parking lot? Why would a guy who's just been cleared of killing a high-level mobster park in such a secluded area? That didn't make much sense. But a good episode, nonetheless. |
Agree on it feeling rushed. Agree that I thought it was obvious that it was the undersheriff But, it could make for some interesting stuff next year.

They've got some casting to do, though. Read in TV Guide that they almost cast Katee Sackhoff but Bruckheimer overruled them because he wasn't impressed with the audition tape. So, you've got the replacement for Warrick, Sara and for a few (6, I believe) episodes Grissom. |
"The L Word" actress Lauren Lee Smith has been cast in the role Sackhoff was up for. They apparently gave up on a Warrick replacement for the time being.
The producers made it clear that Warrick would make appearances here and there, and while he was shot twice, there's still a chance he'll make it long enough to be in at least the season 9 premiere. So he's not dead....yet. |

Spoiler:
I have to say that this way they (producers) have of handling cast changes has really become a cliche, especially on the CSI shows. Wouldn't it be more realistic (regardless of the series) if a character just moved on... like people do in real life.. without getting killed, raped, suffering some sort of mental collapse, etc., when they leave a job or relationship? Bruckheimer needs some new writers. |

I know, but it does prove Jon2's point about never having someone leave the show for a positive reason like 'trying other things' or retiring, or anything that isn't overly dramatic.
When Grissom left to take that temporary teaching position, he was feeling burned out - a dramatic reason. However, it would be easy to have him just say, 'I'm leaving Vegas to teach this course for a time. I realize how much I miss it and I don't want to lose this opportunity' |

Wasn't her last name Baudit?
Shouldn't the title read, "For Gedda Baudit?" |

This is definitely shaping up for a pretty good season next year.
I actually like Warrick. Sad to see him go. But it was PAINFULLY obvious something was going to happen when everyone was so happy and lovey-dovey in the diner. I was expecting him to be shot as soon as he left the building. But what a twist with the undersherriff (who has always had something kind of sneaky about his personality). So does this move DNA girl up into the field? |
