I agree with the above poster. I dont think its going to be anything overly dramatic. Nothing was ever stated it had to be emotional or dramatic. PL never said it would affect the team, only it would change the lineup. And IMO Sinclair is part of the NY family, he has been appearing off and on since season 3. His death would also change the lineup, because you would assume that A) they would bring in someone to take his place, or B) Gillian would take over his job (And No we dont have to see her for that to occur) and they would bring in a new deputy inspector. We have had Gerrard and Gillian in the past two seasons, so I would assume they would cast another actor to take on that role. Hence changing the lineup. IMO anyone that plays a specific role on the show would be considered part of the lineup and part of the family. Also seeing the press release for episode 21, I notice that Sinclair is on it, why bring him back now? He hasnt appeared since episode 5. Also, Sinclair is a cop. And is tied to the flashdrive storyline.
Possible, but only if they're way, way, way exaggerating. But not out of the realm of possibility--after all, Miami hyped a big death at the end of Season Four, and it ended up being Officer Jessop.
Really, from what I have seen-- reading spolers--in this weeks episode there is a scene relating to the death of PINO's wife that greatly affects Danny. I just cant see TPTB putting Danny through the same thing, only 6 episodes later, it makes no sense.
It makes all the sense in the world, actually. First we've got Mac talking to Danny about losing Claire and having regrets, causing Danny to drag Lindsay to the courthouse to get married. Then we've got him reacting badly to the death of the wife of someone he knows? Sounds like it could be foreshadowing.
And yes there was a comment given about how D and L would balance, work and their jobs. I dont think Pam Veasey was talking about one episode, because AB also made comments that basically said the same thing. As did Peter Lenkov in his interview here.
They didn't say for how long, though. As for Anna's interview, they don't always tell actors in advance when they're letting them go.
Also IMO killing off either Danny or Lindsay is way predictable, because now they are happy you would assume that something like that could occur. And honestly I dont think TPTB are going to go the predictable route. Also to me, killing Lindsay would be turning Danny into a clone of Mac, another reason, why I dont think it will happen. JMHO.
Danny will never be a clone of Mac. :lol: The two characters couldn't be more different in personality. :lol: I think they've always had a special bond, though, and that Mac looks at Danny as a surrogate son and Danny at Mac like a surrogate father.
As for predictable, everyone seems so convinced Danny and Lindsay are going to live happily ever after.
I think a fair number of people would be shocked by her death.
I agree on all points Melanie, like I said before, they're not going to tell us that the death isn't going to be overly emotional or dramatic. So far we don't have anything very solid to tell us it will be. CSI: NY is a procedural show with a lot of recurring and supporting actors. Any one of those could be considered a memeber of the "family". Hell, maybe they'll finally officially kill Louie off. :lol: Or even Sam!
Sure, it could be. Right now, we don't know anything--all speculation. And speculation is fun! But Louie or Sam dying wouldn't make the killer a cop killer.
Lastly, Danny needs a friggin break from the drama. :lol: I think he's had more big dramatic storylines than any of the other members of the team since season one. They need to spread it around a little more. That's another reason I don't see it being Lindsay. Talk about overkill.
Danny's only drama this season has been happiness with Lindsay. And let's face it--Danny is an angst magnet. He's at his most interesting when he's unhappy and stressed and in distress. I don't think the writers have lost sight of that.
I say it's Eddie's turn. They had so many more places they could go with the Sam storyline but they seem to have traded them out (just this season hopefully) for his romance with FAILtective Angell. So seeing her die (especially within the first 10 minutes!! :devil
would make my day. They could give Eddie a nice little arc and I never have to see her again.
It's great that seeing Angell die would make your day, but the writers aren't penning the show for you. Or for any of us. I'd love to see Lindsay go, but I think it's equally likely that it will be Hawkes, who I'd hate to see die. It doesn't matter who we
want to go--it's about who's most likely to go.
And what's a "FAILtective"?
It doesn't even rhyme. It's certainly not funny.
But I don't know if I'm that lucky so I think Sinclair or Gillian are the most likely candidates. Especially since Julia Ormond was only signed up for a few episodes to begin with.
Right, episodes that have already aired. Kind of hard to kill her off if she's not around to be killed off.
It'd make sense for her death to be their exit strategy. That also leaves Mac the opportunity to be promoted thus changing the lineup.
I mean didn't PV or AZ say that the last few episodes would focus on Man and Stella? If Mac gets a promotion Stella would too. It'd be interesting to see them deal with their change in position.
I'm still trying to find out how seeing them promoted would serve a show called <i>CSI</i>: New York. Mac can't be a CSI if he's not in the field processing evidence, can he? I wouldn't hold your breath on him getting a promotion.
