Gil Grissom

I LIKED it!

Grissom had his final moment. I guess there could’ve been a little more hugging, a couple more speeches. Not a lot of tears were shed, hell, they didn’t even buy the guy a DRINK! It was a pretty good serial killer case though, in a very CSI way.

Yes, I know the science sucked. I read a really cool article about how badly the science sucked in this particular ep here. The computers they use are also a joke which, as I am married to a programmer, results in a whole lot of eye roling and gesticulation.

Who ever typed ‘blablashoes’ into a search engine and was then blissfully led to the correct site? Without having to browse through thousands of pages flogging Viagra?
Still, what got my yay-side going was the terrific camera work. I don’t know what they did or how much it cost, but this episode looked so GOOD!

Also I like Laurence Fishburne as a replacement for Grissom.

I do share the reservations other bloggers have voiced about the exit rate at CSI. I for one was very happy when Jorja Fox left, because whenever she opens her mouth she makes me cringe and the loss of Warrick I can easily handle. Still, it seems we’re left with a bit of a bench team: if Marg Helgenberger has any more work done on her lips she’ll set some sort of record! George Eads has sadly let himself go and is looking more and more like Hyacint Bucket every day. Greg lost his biggest asset, his hair, and now just looks like a skinny college nerd. Luckily, there’s always my knight in shining armor: Jim Brass, aka Paul Guilfoyle. He still looks exactly the same, nay, even better than when the show started.

Add Laurence Fishburne to that and I’d say we’re good to go. And, sappy as it was, I was kinda happy for those two weirdo’s with their bugs in Costa Rica, even though my navigation cannot even find me a gas station, let alone my long lost love, off in the jungle somewhere!
