Wow! What can I say? Two for two, guys! :thumbsup:
Just two things: Why would Horatio carry his shades in his fingers while in the SWAT gear? :lol:
Yup was thinking the same damn thing and even shouted that out. Honestly he cannot go anywhere without those.
I wondered the same, that man goes everywhere with those shades! Even into a freakin' hostage situation! :shifty:
Well, at least the bad guys now know who or what to target if they ever need Horatio to do something.....just kidnap his damn shades....he'll probably whimper and sputter like a baby and do whatever they want!:guffaw:
I do like the new character Jesse, but he’s being ruined by stupid things, such as taking off his shirt which was quickly replaced with a t-shirt. If they were that quick with the t-shirt then why did he need to take his shirt off in the first place? Oh yes, of course, just to give the viewers something to drool over. Someone should tell the PTBs that not everyone is going to like what they see, so while it might be a nice distraction for some, for others, like myself (if indeed there are any others like me – chuckle), who are only interested in the characters, it’s a complete turn-off.
Also, Jesse was not that good during the hostage situation. His continual telling of Ted to calm down was making the situation far worse, and in all honesty, I would say he was partly responsible for the woman getting shot as well. He should have recognised the fact that his talking was agitating Ted and not soothing, the fact that he didn’t recognise what his talking was doing, that put a dent in his capabilities for me. Sooooo, I was far from impressed with Jesse during the hostage situation.
I honestly don't see what the big deal is about Jesse taking his shirt off, even IF the network did it for eye-candy purposes, at least it wasn't some blatant show-off, this was handled in the best way it can be handled and they didn't make some big OMG moment out of it, there was no close-up focus on his body. I mean, they focused instead on his face/head in the close-ups, which is a smart move on their part. It was a quick scene and then the storyline moved along. That moment was done alot better than what I've seen on other shows.
I too enjoy watching shows for the characters, but I really don't think that whole shirtless scene was really any wrong, it worked in the logical sense, and besides, it was a rather nice body to look at anyways....so I can't complain....
And as for Jesse speaking, he didn't do anything that the other CSI characters haven't done. And really the HT was hearing yakking from both sides of the conversation, he's got Horatio talking in one ear and Jesse speaking in the other, heck, if I was the HT, I'd probably go crazy and shoot someone too.
That's not to say that Jesse doesn't need improvement on his hostage-crisis skills, but singling him out for that one moment is a bit hypocritical since other members of the CSI team have done the same thing in the past where they can't stop talking/trying to calm down the suspect that in turn caused the suspect to be more confrontational.
And anyways, Jesse being not skilled at hostage crisis at least makes him more human, shows that at least he's got flaws and isn't some big perfect character who will lord over everyone. That's one of the reasons why I took to having Jesse on the team. He's not perfect, he's not superman, instead he's a team player, he's just a decent, good, kind-hearted cop trying to do his job.:thumbsup:
I'm just so glad I don't have to sit around and watch an arrogant newbie, Jesse with all his flaws is much better!
