And Dallas vs. New Orleans was the Sunday night football game. Love them or hate them, Dallas is a huge ratings draw.

Thursday night football in the Fall will be the CBS regular programming. That means when football season ends in December, their Thursday night show lineup will start. Then in March they will have basketball. So yes, I can see at least a few shows having a 13 episode season.

While I agree that they've been setting up Crawford to take over for Brass all season (dude who plays him seems to be a Don McGill favorite), I don't see him bringing in the fans either. As I recall, the ratings tend to go up when Brass is in the episode. If they really wanted to save some...

I'm glad he gets to move on and hopefully, do other things now. I'm also glad I will no longer have to watch this show after this season. I wish Paul could have left on his own terms and I hope they give him a proper send off but I'm not optimistic. They haven't known what to do with...

According to an interview Paul did for this site back in 2012: "I’m taking episodes off because it’s a way to save some money on the show, for financial reasons." He then said it works out for him because he and his family live in NYC but he does allude to the business side of it.

Plus, they dramatically cut Paul Guilfoyle's episodes. He used to be in almost every one. Now he misses three or more episodes a season.

Hi Ren! I'm a Brass addict too. There aren't many of us around on this board so it's very great to have you here!

They completely ignored everything they've written about Brass' past for the first 9 seasons (I don't count 10 -13 because they were an an abomination for Brass as well as a few others). I about choked when Nancy accused him of being a bad husband. She was the one who was "open 24/7" and he's...

No Paul either? So the two main cast members who've been there from day 1 weren't in attendance. Whatever.

You mean like when they completely turned everything we know about Brass on its ear when they made him hide evidence to support Ray? That's pretty much the poster child for "making a character behave in some absurd way for the sake of making something fit into a dramatic plot point". Yup...

I wouldn't mind if it were Brass because I'd love to quit watching this show if they killed him off. However, Brass is a main character and despite the last few seasons, was a big part of the team. I'd hate to think they'd brush his death off like any other recurring character death. He...

Hairs in the showgirl headdress and cholesterol in the piranhas from "Table Stakes". Ellie's spit on Brass' badge in "Ellie"

But isn't that what he and the rest of the CSIs did for the first what, 9 seasons? And they made that interesting. Seems to me that it's only been in the few seasons - as the original writers left - that CSIs have been more and more like cops. If it's all about Nick being a cop so he can have...

I'm sure leaving out Sara and making it known in the previous episode that she wouldn't be around didn't help matters. Kind of shot themselves in the foot with that one.

This. Everything you said is exactly my feeling too. They have a perfect opportunity to bring back the Brass and Grissom bromance of seasons past only now with DB but the writers still don't know what to do with Brass (or any other detective for that matter) and now he's been reduced to...

Why not Brass? He's a cop so their paths could have crossed any number of ways. Since it's already been shown that he has a soft spot for girls about Ellie's age who are in trouble, maybe he helped her out in the past like he tried to help the prostitute in "Strip Maul". And that "we're...

Hey, at least that would give Brass some screentime. He's been pushed so far into the background, he's going to need a crowbar to get him back into the picture. It would be nice if he had more than 3 to 5 minutes an episode - if he's even in the episode.

I think every character on this show would have been fired at some point. Warrick should have never made it out of the Pilot, probably Grissom as well. I get irritated when people try to rationalize this show against reality (In a Dark, Dark House for example). It hasn't been based in reality...

I see that CBS is continuing their last season tradition of misspelling Guilfoyle. You'd think after 13 years they could get it right.

Paul Guilfoyle has said several times that he doesn't watch CSI, or more specifically, himself in the episodes, either.
