Re: CSI: NY Season 5 Spoiler Dicussion - Back in the Big Apple IIRC, Danny's vacation was a "mention" in the show, it wasn't actually stated that the character was going to be gone. It's really hard to tell from such one line spoilers what the intention really is. For that matter, a...

Actually, in our system of justice no one is ever found innocent, they are merely declared "not guilty". It is very possible to be innocent and not be able to prove innocence. Which is why our justice system, you have to be proven guilty. Anytime a person is declared "not guilty" -- for...

I totally agree that there should have been sympathy for what happened to the women but there should be none for what they did. You can sympathize for people who were abused as children but there should be no sympathy when those people go on to molest other children. Rage is not only...

I love RSRD, so if they do Danny angst that way, I will get behind it. :) I didn't like him in OTJ and I hope that they don't make him as, ah, blindly-reactionary as he was in that one. In my opinion, Danny was a stronger character in RSRD than he was in OTJ. I fully admit to my bias of...

I find this discussion even more interesting than the episode -- and I liked the episode. I like that Mac treated the women -- both of the women -- as the murder suspects they were. The suspect/murderer/attempted murderer were all sympathetic and the victims were unsympathetic but that doesn't...

Well, then it would be best for the ep. to be centered around Danny and Lindsey, because nothing seems to bring out the posters more the debating the pros, cons and personal love/hate for those two characters. Personally, I'd rather see a solid team episode rather than something all angsty and...

The most interesting thing about this strike is the thought that the TV viewers will just continue to watch the same channels no matter what is on. If CSI:NY isn't on, I'm not just going to sit and stare at the screen going "I guess I'll have to settle for this". Even in the 1988 strike...

I'm just the opposite... I love the 333 storyline. Anytime Gary has a storyline, I think it's an all around win situation. I like that it's just a touch in each episode, rather than something that eats up a lot of screen time. I love the understatedness of the arc and the fact that Gary can...

You're right althea. Again in one. I obviously need harder quotes... You're up!

Most productions have very strict rules on what forums/boards people involved in the production can view/participate in because they don't want to be accused of "stealing" a story. While I can't think of a case where such a suit was upheld, they are a nuisance. I don't know of any production...

Quick one before I head to work. (And, since I'm new here, I also apologize if I repeat a quote). Wow. People never cease to amaze me.

Flack. In Blood, Sweat and Tears.

The problem with spoilers is that "main plot details" don't always give the real feel of the show. And, depending upon when the spoilers were from (script, word-of-mouth, or actual viewing of the show) they may actually be misleading, even if they are factual. I try not to get cynical over...

Nah, I completely agree. And not only does it come up with cool (or icky or creepy) deaths, but they come up with cool ways of catching the killers. I loved that they tracked the guy using the dog collars. It's always the little things that get you caught. I also like that the motives aren’t...

Making characters younger than the actors who portray them doesn't annoy me as much as having young actors (well, especially actresses) play older characters. 25-year-old actresses playing surgeons or US attorneys really annoy me. At least they are hiring the "older" actors/actresses...

There is no way Mac could ever flirt -- he's just to straight forward for that. Banter, that Mac could do. He could have a conversation about something, but it would have to be an actual conversation. Of course, he had an audience for the flirting. As private as Mac is, I don't think having...

All writers are striking. In order to be a writer in Hollywood, you need to belong to the Writer's Guild of America. Just as all actors in Hollywood need to belong to the Screen Actors Guild. And all directors in Hollywood need to belong to the Directors Guild of America. I don't believe...

Just because I've been surfing for news, this article says that the Teamsters are pushing their union members to honor the strike: If the Teamsters get involved it will have in immediate effect and could shut down some productions right away, rather than having to wait for scripts to run...

Absolutely. The same with news shows, such as 48 Hours and the like, they don't fall under the WGA. From what I've read, the networks have a lot of news and reality shows in the wings. Which means a whole hell of a lot less television viewing in my future. It will be interesting, however it...

The last writer's strike was in 1988, and lasted for 22 weeks, from March 7 through Aug. 7. It cost the industries millions of dollars. It was at the end of the TV season, rather than the beginning, but I know that the final episode of Magnum, PI doesn't have any of the usual Magnum...
