    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Solving Crime in the Empire City

    Re: CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Solving Crime in the Empire I doubt that Stella will sleep with Mac at this point. If the lady's Stella, I think they are just setting up a situation where the feelings are acknowledged but they can't or won't act on them right now. Re: the power...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Solving Crime in the Empire City

    Re: CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Solving Crime in the Empire Wow, the Hawkes prison episode sounds like it could definitely be a good one – the type of scenario that could really bring Sheldon to the forefront and give him an opportunity to shine in a way the other Hawkes-centric...

    Grade 'Sanguine Love'

    Grade = C. Count me as another one who thought the opening sequence was beautifully filmed – it reminded me of certain scenes from the movie, Snow Falling on Cedars, which won awards for its cinematography IIRC. I also liked the visual imagery they used in the opening sequence to depict...

    Grade 'Criminal Justice'

    Thanks. :) I'll have to pay closer attention when watching some of the earlier episodes -- I just don't remember specific instances. And I may have been influenced by some of the press releases, which seem to refer to only Mac, Stella, and Flack as detectives. But I'm not sure who's...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    I wouldn't mind seeing something along the lines of "Snow Day," -- a major crisis situation with everyone (or almost everyone) being involved and having a chance to shine. Makes me wonder whether the use of the term "bang" in the previous article has any special meaning as in an explosion or...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    Oops, sorry, I'm sure you're right about the location....I was going off of memory and didn't recall the background. I don't think Lindsay's location really matters, though. The critical point is that she told Danny to come back and "we" will figure something out. What's to figure out? IIRC...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    Normally, I'd agree, but Lindsay actually contributed to the situation (at least initially) by telling Danny to come home so they could figure something out instead of telling him to immediately report it. And since they're married now with a child, what happens re: Danny's job affects their...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    Of all the potential love interests Mac's had, I actually thought Gillian was the most similar in terms of status, personality, and temperament. But imo they had minimal spark/chemistry onscreen. I think they probably need someone with a different type of personality (more outgoing and...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    Hmm...three years? I thought Mac had a love interest almost every season (Jordan? Gillian?), who IIRC also were touted in similar news releases. :rolleyes: I was expecting that this might be Stella's year to get a love interest and maybe even end up in a whirlwind engagement/marriage -- all...

    Grade 'Flag on the Play'

    Yikes! It's been awhile since I was that bored by a CSI NY episode. I don't think there was anything really wrong with it. The case just wasn't that interesting (despite the "Ew" factor of injecting industrial grade silicone), and the actors/characters seemed a bit flat at times. I do...

    Grade 'Criminal Justice'

    I thought this was a solid, above average episode but still with its share of flaws. It’s great that Stella was the most prominent, driving force in this episode, and it was a nice vehicle for showing various facets of her personality and character. Despite all the screen time that MK/Stella...

    Grade "Hammer Down"

    It depends on how one defines a “signature, defining” character. I consider those types of characters to be the ones who by virtue of their personalities, relationships, roles, etc. contribute in a significant way to the style, tone, and identity of the series. Being in the credits isn’t...

    Grade 'Second Chances'

    Grade = B This episode was similar to the previous one (“Death House”) for me. It had some flaws but overall kept me interested and entertained. Since I don’t watch “The Closer” the plot wasn’t familiar, so I actually found the case premise interesting and despite having read some...

    Grade 'Death House'

    I’m two or three episodes behind on reviews but decided to go ahead with this one while it’s fresh. (Warning: this is a somewhat lengthy review.) Grade = B- This was a tough episode to grade for me. Trying to look at it somewhat objectively, I think it was a slow paced and flawed outing...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    Yes, a few days is probably too many, but I've been assuming it's more than a few hours if Mac feels the need to cover for Flack. It will be sort of weird if the writers try to make it seem that Flack has been consistently messing up at work for some time because that's not what's been coming...

    CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Bright Lights, Big City

    Yeah, we'll have to see how it plays out, but I doubt it's only about Mac's irritation about the loss of manpower on the Compass Killer case. IIRC, isn't Flack supposed to have been missing for a few days and Mac ends up covering for Flack with his CO, who is fed up because Flack...

    just curious

    I think Mac's age was established to be 44 years old in s4 ("The Thing About Heroes," so I guess he'd be approaching 46 now. Like Top41 said, Stella was 34 during "Grounds for Deception," so she should be about 35 years old now. I vaguely recall a reference in the early seasons to how long...

    Are you watching the whole trilogy?

    I only watch CSI: NY on a regular basis. I have watched the Original and Miami in the past, but it's been years since I watched either on a regular basis. Having read certain spoilers about the trilogy, I didn't bother watching the Original or Miami episodes because I didn't expect the...

    Grade "Hammer Down"

    Yes, Flack's been more low key than usual so far this season, but they've still managed to work some snark into a few of the preceding episodes. I did like the getting his "Mac on" and "spidey-senses" banter, though -- one of the few times a bit of humor came through. :) It was definitely a...

    Grade "Hammer Down"

    Grade = C (a generous one) Considering the “special” nature of this episode, I tried to look at it from two perspectives – first, as a regular CSI:NY viewer/fan and second, as someone not very familiar with the series. In both cases, it was a disappointing episode. Even though the...
