    George being a nice guy isn't exactly breaking news. Anybody who has followed his career knows what a great and funny guy he is.

    What I don't get is how, based on a quick scene, can Justin's acting be judged? He might be good, he might be bad, but we don't know yet. Another thing I would like to remind everybody is that he's not a professional actor. He hasn't had the training that most have had so I hesitate comparing his acting to the pros.

    It seems that Justin B was only on set for one day. So, there couldn't have been much time for a rookie actor to develop any character (or even learn his lines).
    There is a quote from Carol Mendelsohn that I read somewhere (I have been searching for the source) where she says that they were lucky to be able to get a day out of his busy schedule.
    Justin himself tweeted,"BIG day today . . . excited doing something new." Later, he revealed that he had spent the day on the "CSI" set, where he shot his scenes for the hit CBS crime drama. "CSI premieres on Thursday, Sept 23rd on CBS ... and I told you I was a BAD MAN!!" From VH1, Justin Bieber Tweets About Appearance On 'CSI' Premiere

    I agree with this analysis of them. What's so great about Dr Langston, is how he came in and immediatley bonded with all the team members, besides Nick who they clicked and connected right off the bat. They are all in awe and admiration of him and visa versa. Also how he's never pulled rank, but acts as an equal. He listens to them, and gets their input and brings his expertise to the table. And a "newbie":confused: hardly, he's been on since the middle of S/9, and were going into S/11. and thanks for the video Princess:bolian: is George Eads not one of the nicest people on the earth? Everyone should have his optimism and enthusiasm. He always praises anyone he works with. He's a rock star of CSI. But Bieber baby is 16, and acts 8, my take on watching him. Not sure of him till I see the whole episode. But George sure was a sweetheart when describing him;)

    The line: "We're guessing he's fine, so let's move on to bigger news..." CRACKED me up! Let's just blow by the regular cast ya know. I should be used to this by now.

    Ok, I can't remember if this was mentioned, but Andy Dick is guest starring in the vampire/werewolf episode of CSI.

    Here's what he said(tweeted):

    I love how a lot of the big name stars always have something nice to say about George. :D

    I couldn't care less about what happens to Ray, but even I found that humorously offensive :lol:

    Really? Who actually thinks that Beiber is more important than, say, Cath or Greg? You know, those guys who have been there since the beginning? I'm starting to doubt whether Greg will even be in the premier, considering we've had NO news about him :rolleyes::(

    Well, I think we all know that casting someone like Justin Bieber isn't for the established fans who are still following the series. It's to try to attract new fans, which is something CBS has to do because network viewership is down across the board (not just for scripted dramas like "CSI"). Even though I don't like it, I understand why they have to do it. It's economics, and without new blood (especially in that "18 to 49" demographic, for which they can charge the highest advertising rates), "CSI" won't be around in any shape or form. Now, some might say that's a good thing, but again, in terms of economics, that's not something CBS can afford to do ... not if if they can help it.
