    Spoilers must be almost nonexistent if all we can talk about are where the actors are listed in the credits. Yep, I'm just as guilty, but oh boy, do I miss good spoilers! My kingdom for a spoiler!

    I agree, Wojo. The other lab techs are barely in any episodes. When they are, it's for a split second. Not exactly worth putting in the credits. Good actors and all, but geez. The only one I can think of that would be in the credits, (besides Wallace, of course) would be Archie Kao. He's been there all nine years! I know he's after the main credits as a consultant, but I think he deserves more in my opinion.

    Totally agree about Archie. He should definitely be in the opening credits. He's on there enough.

    I could be wrong but Archie is not in all the episodes it so he would not be listed in the opening credits.

    Yeah, but not all the characters are in every single episode. Grissom wasn't in some episodes, and Nick wasn't even in some episodes. And Hodges didn't come in until what, season 3? So Archie may have a chance in being in the credits.

    Archie's been on the show since 2001 (just not in every ep). Hodges started somewhere between 2003 and 2005 I believe. I think they should do like Charmed did with characters like Darryl ... only show them in the opening credits with the main stars when they are in an episode. That way all of the recurring labrat characters and Ecklie as well get a chance to be in the opening credits. :)

    Actually, I believe Archie started in the second season, and not as "Archie." He was in "Chaos Theory" as a video tech.

    :lol: I got confused. I was thinking about David (Superdave). He's been on the show since the first season (2000) and Archie started a year later (well, the actor anyway). The actor who plays Henry was in "Unbearable" as a suspect before starting as recurring character Henry. :) But he and David both have been research assistants on the show since the beginning I think (well I know David has lol). David's brother Josh (I think that's his name) works behind the scenes at CSI, but I can't remember as what. :lol:

    In any case it depends on how they are contracted. If they are a regular or just recurring. Regulars usually are in the credits but with CSI I've noticed they tend to be added to the main credits like a year or two after they really became a regular. Eric was a regular in season 2 but did not appear in credits until Season 3. Hodges took until last year to appear in the credits and he had been a regular a couple years prior I think.

    For informational purpose IMDB has Archie Kao being in 73 eps over 9 seasons, starting in season 2 "Chaos Theory", this includes the next two new eps that will be in January "one to go" & "The Grave Shift".

    But I do caution that we slow down on talking credits especially when they don't pertain to spoilers. I understand that spoilers are few and far between but I am sure there are parts of the next two new eps that haven't been discussed. Spoilers are speculation as everything is subject to change but I am sure that not everything about the future eps have been discussed. ;)

    Hey folks when copy and pasting the press releases, please give the source of them (you don't have to link to it) and two please do not post the whole thing. Such things like the name, ep number, and air date are fine, descript of the ep, is good. But the actors list can be left out, if you want to mention in your own words "Hey Windy/Henry will be in this one" etc that is fine. But all this same info will be put into the ep thread when that time comes. This is all we ask. ;) *okay everyone breath now* :lol:

    Sorry Destiny. I edited mine to add the source. I thought I had put it in there. I also took out the regular cast list.
