    Jacquie, I do get it now :guffaw:

    When my dad thought I driving too fast, he'd say I was driving like either Speedy Gonzalez or Parnelli Jones....:lol:

    Guess I missed the shiny suit. :lol: I do agree it's not his best look. Take it off, George, take it off!!!! Jeez, now I sound like I'm sitting in the front row with a handful of twenties. :p

    @Jackie, heard about kitty when I went to the Ward to check out the shiny suit pic. Glad to hear everything's working out!

    That's pretty funny Speedy! [​IMG]

    Guess I'll watch what I confess to the Ward :shifty: [​IMG]

    Waiting4summer, do you need any help with those twenties, because that suit definitely needs to come off, ha ha ha.

    Boy, did Nick look good in last night's repeat. Especially when they all first got to the house and were walking inside - nice t-shirt and jeans. Nice butt shot when they went into the house.

    As for the episode, I wish the mention of Nick's stalker wasn't so casual.

    I'm just glad they mentioned it at all! :lol: When all of that was going on I thought, "If they don't say something about it then they are crazy!!"

    But...I think one of the points of Nick's kind of brushing it off was to show how much his character has grown and changed. I like it. I think it's one of the most realistic and believable character growth arcs on the show.

    I totally agree with you on the believable arc comment. I've been doing a re-watch of the series for the last littlle while and I started at the beginning. Nick has changed so much but it was such a natural progression at each stage... If they had a "character growth" section on Wikipedia, the character of Nick Stokes could be used as a prime example. :) And George has done a brilliant job of making it all believable.

    Explain to me again why he has never gotten an Emmy? :p

    cause the people that do the voting are idiots :D

    Seriously it's probably cause he's in an ensemble cast. There are not many actors that get an Emmy when they are in the type of show like CSI. George is not an in your face actor and he's kept his private life private. No getting in trouble. Look at Keifer Sutherland. Send time in jail for DUI and get an Emmy :rolleyes: no justice at all.

    Ensemble cast or not, he should have been nominated for Grave Danger.

    It more has to with the fact that CSI is a 'procedural' drama. Those types of shows usually do not get nominated for Emmys.

    I think the Emmy committee just overlooks them; though 'Grave Danger' was nominated for best director. Didn't win though. :rolleyes:

    Yes, Nick has changed much over the years. He started of as young, naive, just off the ranch Texan, and is not this older, wiser, take no prisoners, Texan/Las Vegas resident. ;)

    Blast from the past...TV commercial for "Grave Danger". Interesting to me since I wasn't watching the show back then. :) Just don't make the mistake I did and click on the related fan videos. :( :( Too sad!!

    No problem! :) I think it's interesting how it plays up the Nick and Grissom relationship. I didn't realize it had been spun that way.

    There is different one on this page.

    Thanks for posting those links Smokey!! :bolian:

    I especially liked the first one, it was quite powerful. I wouldn't have remembered it back then either, but it's really making me want to watch Grave Danger again right now ;)

    Now we just need to find it in high definition :p

    Maybe I am biased, but that is the best CSI season finale.
    Nick may have been in the box, but you didn't feel like it was a Nick centered episde because you had everyone working together to find him.
    I wish Quentin would write/direct another episode.
