    Really looking forward to this one. Has a feeling of "Recipe for Murder".

    I find the title funny.:guffaw:

    I'll probably be steering clear of deep fried and minty food for a while after this one.

    From what I've seen of the teasers, this eppy has the potential to be quirky, fun and loaded with black humor the way Ending Happy, Rashomama and Fur And Loathing were. I'm very much looking forward to this one.

    Here's a clip from ETOnline. :lol:

    Kinda looks like the pre-theme opening scenes to me.

    Looks like it will be a funny episode, or have its funny/quirky moments (like someone mentioned earlier) and I am looking forward to it. Thanks for the link blackflag.

    Okay, just watching that reminded me again of how much I loved Brass. ROFLMAO. "Personal hygiene in the dishwashing sink. Yum."

    It looks really funny!

    Yeah, this looks really funny and quirky. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. But, this one looks just odd enough to work.

    And my favorite detective is back for this episode as well. Can't wait to hear some good Vartann lines about the fast food place.

    ROFL. That preview was hilairous. And how I missed the black humor. Thanks for the link. :)

    I love the crude humor of CSI. I also love the cool blue color schemes and the whole atmosphere. It makes the comedy all the more appealing! ;)

    Brass was definately funny tonight.

    Not a standout ep but not a terrible one either. Just kind of average for me.

    Greg and Cathrine, cutest partners ever. Too bad their case was like ten minutes long.

    Nicky in charge:beer: yay
    Riely was tolerable this week. Is it me or is ray in like every scene? I''m close to being sick of him.

    Really though I thought it would be funnier:(

    I think that this episode was pretty good. It would have been better with Grissom in it, of course, but I think they did fine without him. I found myself giggling at the smallest things, like Nick and Riley eating fast food. I think Nick's starting to take on the Grissom role. He reminded me of Grissom a lot during the episode, especially when they recreated the crime scene. :lol:

    I will admit the episode started slow, but then I think it picked up once the guy in the barrel was found. By the end of the episode I thought it was pretty good. The two outcomes of the cases I did not see coming.

    It also had some nice, light humor in it. Nothing too heavy but enough to make me chuckle a little. Got to see a lot of our lab techs, which was nice too. This episode actually made good use of the whole cast, which is one thing I really enjoyed about it.

    I love Catherine and Greg working a case together, something sort of rare.
