Eric/Greg: Leggo Our Greggo thread #15

Hi everyone!

Okay so I've been a huge fan of CSI since season 3 (cut me some slack, I started watching when I was like 10... (I'm 18 now)). Anyway, I first fell in love with Greg one time when my dad was watching the show so I started watching it myself and fell in love with the show itself. I was even a frequenter here at the boards at one point (lost my info though so I had to make this screenname).

Well... since then, the show has changed and I've kind of... well, been a little turned off by it lately. So, when it came down to watching it for Greg, I've just been getting really angry these past couple of seasons anytime I watched it because he's only ever in like... 5 minutes of an episode.

Because I'm not fond of anger, I only watch it here and there. I gave it another try last night for the premier because I miss it and while they, of course, didn't have much Greg, I've decided to give this season a shot.

My question is, for the past two seasons, have there been any really good Greg episodes?

Thanks!

 

Hi Are you the same causeAscene from SGA fandom?

I stopped watching the show as well for a while but got back into it heavily in season 10. As for Gregisodes... season 9, probably 'No Way Out' (if you are who I think you are you'll like the opening scene ), season 10; 'Appendicitement', 'Lovers Lane' and 'Take My Life, Please!'.

 

Yes ma'am! That would be me CSI came before SGA but SGA kept me entertained through the full run. RIP

Anyway, thank you! I'll be looking into those for sure!!

 

Yep, not a lot of scenes but at least he wasn't in the A/V room. However, that end scene when Greg and Vartann walking into the tent had me going, "uh oh..." since I knew the place was gonna go boom from the spoilers I've been reading. Seeing Greg save Vartann's life and looking *that* good after that made the S11 premiere good for me. =)

Well, with all the explosions and Nick getting follow up, hopefully someone on the writing team remembers that Greg went through all that before.

 

It could be a new direction for the show, Nick getting follow up in this ep seemed appropriate after the finale, hopefully Greg's time will come at some point.

 

Greg was actually the first one to get follow up, it happened after he got his fanny smacked.

 

I agree, I think Greg is growing/will grow into a great leader. I don't think he's there yet, he hasn't got the years of experience to have authority over other CSI's, but he will get there. I also agree about Nick, I remember when the news came out about Marg leaving and a lot of people were saying it would be natural for Nick to take over, but something doesn't sit right with me about Nick being in charge :S

 

It's because Greg can also talk with his eyes.

Better or not, i am with you about he can be a good leader. And again agree that he reminds me of Grissom in some points. After all the things happened to Greg over the years and after all the things in this one episode the guy could stay calm and kept working. One of the reasons i like Greg in the first place even it means less screentime :lol: I don't even know why the hell i'm laughing...

About his scenes... He found the plane.Good.
He saved Vartan and himself.Good. He almost got blown up again, i liked Cat and Vartan's reaction.

 

I also thought maybe it was his tone of voice, some tones are easier to hear than others.

 

Could be the pitch too - lower than Cath's female voice. I do think Nick was just pretending not to hear Cath tell him to go to the hospital though..

I still think of Greg as the goofy lab guy - I know he's grown up a lot since then, but it's still hard for me to picture him in charge.

Glad to see him get recognition and thanks for saving Vartann from the explosion. Good quick reaction to Cath's warning.
