I've mainly only seen CSI Miami. It's good though. I like how they use all the technology and it's got good action. At first I thought some of the acting was bad. But then I realized that was just the characters. And the more I see it the more I like the actors. I've only seen like one regular CSI. I liked it though from what I saw. The main character guy is pretty cool.

I said I liked the Miami and NY but I am not so sure anymore. I am more into CSI: Las Vegas cause it is not boring at all. The others , I just can't get into anymore. Plus I love Grissom... he is my fav....

Yes, but he's a nice man. He cares about the victims. Go on, give him a chance.

I haven't watched the New York spin-off. What's the main guy like in that?

I don't like him, either.

The guy from NY is pretty cool. Even IRL,

I've watched the show, so he's already had his chance. Nice doesn't make a good character,

I watched the original CSI for a little while but after a while the episodes, though entertaining, just seemed to be the same after a while and tended to sometimes be on the cheesy side.

I disagree, it depends on how you look at it. I rather prefer CSI Las Vegas than the other ones because the other ones , I just can't get interested in at all. I hate Horiatio.... Ugly man and boring....

Cant stand Miami, haven't seen enough of NY to judge and I've seen every single episode of CSI (LV) except for Poppin Tags. But currently I'm taking a break from the show. I've stopped watching it cold turkey, haven't read any fanfiction for weeks and haven't stepped into a CSI forum in a month. Which is saying alot because I am a moderater on one of the forums and frequent them multiple times a day. After that last scene I felt betrayed by CSI and it was like C/7 all over again.

Not sure if I will be watching it next year.

Oh Don't give up on it. One disappointment doesn't mean quit watching it. I am a little upset over the Grissom/Sara ordeal.. it is not the age thing cause age don't matter. Sara has family issues and all she is looking for in Grissom is a daddy figure. Now they can leave that out. No soap opera in CSI please lolz Little romance and flirtation but don' get like a soap opera.

But, I will continue to watch CSI. I am a Snickers Fan anyway .. .Sara/Nick lol...

- It effected me bad. I think I've given up on the show. I'm kind of sick of all the drama it's caused. The spoilers shoved in our faces and then when the episode came out, it was nothing but a dud. Like that huge secret about Catherine's family, they showcased it in several issues of TV Guide. Even made it a cover story on one of them.

The crappy way the showcased GSR. I'm not a fan of GSR but I would have excepted it - more readily if it had been done better. It does have more basis than C/7 ever did, but the way GSR got together or I should say that they had been together for years didn't make any sense. Not with the way Sara had been acting around Grissom all these years. And also problems I've had at a particular forum, it took me seven days to figure out how to get into the forum I should have taken that as a sign.

I really haven't had much contact with the CSI world except the one forum that I am a moderater at they've all been nice and accepted me into their community. I won't abandon them though.

Funny thing is even though I knew that GSR was going to happen, I still had such a hard time with this. Oh well...

I didn't find it at all surprising, and although I don't think it's a good plot twist, it could make for some interesting episodes. However, I doubt that either of those characters has the capacity to carry on a relationship for more than a few weeks.

I agree with you IntredpidIsMe...

Plus, I know Sara has family issues and she is looking for Grissom only for a daddy figure, so it is not about being in love with him really. I think I already said that... Oh yeah I did. I forgot duh on me..... Grissom never showed any romantic feelings that he wanted her in the first through what fifth season. Now at the end of sixth season, she was in a bedroom with him... ummm writers is messing up big time. Plus who wants a CSI soap opera? Not me...

Besides, I wouldn't mind seeing more interesting storylines for Nick .... Hardly got a storyline in the sixth season... Always Grissom and other others... Some Nick they did, I think. I heard that Catherine and Warrick are suppose to be getting together. I don't know if it is true or not.

- Not surprising at all. I knew that it was going to happen, and it made me even more assure of myself when I heard about the orignal plot of Gum Drops which only didn't complete due to Billy's Nephew dieing. In fact that's what kind of got me in trouble at my other forum.

How come (for me at least) is every couple you want together not get together? Sometimes it feels like a big slap in the face. I knew this was going to happen. But I only saw C/7 coming from rumors at a huge Voyager site.

- You know what really pissed me off. Was in Time of Your Death, when that guy tells Grissom that he has fantasies. Then later when their all talking about the case, someone I think Sara asks the question why didn't this victim (I think) confess his love for this girl or something like that. And Grissom says something along the lines of "He was afraid of rejection."

Which of course is one of those 'double' meaning lines. Which pissed me off to no end because I was like - All these years the reason Grissom isn't with Sara is because he's afraid of Rejection!?

It was like the person who wrote this was some random GS shipper who hadn't seen season's 1-4. I'm like if their giving that as an excuse for Grissom than that's *beep*. She asks him out in Butterflied. She's always the one to make some coment about their nonexistant romantic relationship.

Well I do know that CSI won't last much longer. 7 and possibly season 8. Most of the staff that drove the show to success have left, the great writers , I think some of the producers and Billy want's out. I don't think the show could really go on w/o him. Well it could, but it just wouldn't be the same. The show is a procedural, but also the cast have some great dynamics. They all seem to play off of each other so well. And Grissom is really the center of the show. Besides the cases that is.

- I heard a rumor about that. Warrick and Catherine get together I would believe it. I mean GSR happened. Why not them too?

Leo are you on the CSI Las Vegas Forum?

Which one mine or the csi-fansite.org? I am on both mine and cyberkate's forum as Nicky.


I believe there will be season 8. Petersen maybe the reason the show maybe big but not neccessarily. Cause if you look at George Eads is real popular with the ladies. Most girls I talk to watch because of George and not William Petersen. Las Vegas is more popular than Miami that is for sure.

They possibly could get an actor that is well known to saved the show. I don't think the show will end after season 7. It will be hard to adjust without William Petersen. I don't even like the GSR not because my wife doesn't like the idea. I prefer more action and more storylines than I do romance on the show. Deb have a point, the ladies are into George Eads.. I often get jealous of George myself cause Deb so ga ga over him.

- CSI is a procedural crime drama first and for most - it can survive w/o the cast. But I personally don't think it will do as well w/o Petersen. Because him and his character are so involved in the show. Before the second half of season 6 he was in practically ever episode - besides the cases the show centered around him. And also he is an exec.

And also you have to remember that there are tons of fans out there that aren't even online - and I do believe that most of the fans of the show watch the show for the cases not for the characters/actors. Most people tend to watch Procedural Crime Drama's for the cases, and also because they tend not to focus on the characters personal lives like Soap dramas tend to do.

- I've heard the opposite but I don't believe it. It was from an actor on Miami that said it though. I can't stand Caruso.
