Re: CSI: NY Season 6 Spoiler Discussion - Solving Crime in the Empire
In the episode, "Redemptio," a death row inmate's (guest star Harold Perrineau, "Lost") final request brings Dr. Hawkes (series regular Hill Harper) to a Pennsylvania prison and face-to-face with a tragic incident that he has kept secret for many years, just as a prison riot erupts and traps Hawkes inside. The story was written by executive producer Peter M. Lenkov, with the teleplay by Lenkov and Bill Haynes.
"We were looking for something high energy and irreverent to sell the madness of a prison riot," said executive producer and episode writer Peter M. Lenkov. "We immediately responded to the new Osbourne tune. The song exceeded our expectations and brought exactly the right tone to the episode."
"When I heard they were going to use 'Let Me Hear You Scream' for a prison riot scene, I thought, 'Well, now that's something I know about,'" says Ozzy, who spent time in prison in the U.K. for burglary before his 18th birthday.
Very much looking forward to this one. It will be great to see Hawkes featured so strongly in an episode. Hill will no doubt make the most of his time (and I love that he's always unrelentingly positive in his related twits).
We'll see if "high energy and irreverent" actually translate as a vibe. The rest of the hour will probably take itself rather seriously, given all it's to encompass and also set up. Even a quote using "high energy and irreverent" somehow stirs a wee nugget of hope despite of my better judgement. Dammit. Dammit dammit.
. Having an Ozzy song called "let me hear you scream" referred to as a tune, a light-hearted ditty per say, feeds the amusement too
. Irreverent if only cos it's hard to take Ozzy srsly too :lol:.
from The Big Tease:
‘CSI: NY’ star Melina Kanakaredes ....said the circumstances surrounding the serial slayer’s unexpected encore are, well, “interesting.” She added, “I don’t want to give away too much, but they tie it into a story point that’s been on the show all season long. It melds in really perfectly.”
The. uh, serial ...slayer. Slayer? Slayer. Interesting. Is even the mere label of Serial Killer now too mundane to bother with? Or is there a visceral and deliberate reason he's being referred to this way? :lol:. Slayer, Osbourne, Riots (potentially Quiet ones?), and Rob Zombie's CSI ep to boot, there's a metal theme emerging here :lol:.
I will play. "A Story Point that's been on the show all along." Well, logically, one might infer Danny's injury, etc. (well, that's one of the few things I can recall from earlier this season that's had periodic references made). That, and he, along with LL are apparently to figure prominently to close the season. But I'm hardly in a frame of mind to enjoy being terribly reasonable.
So. What. I'll just toss out a few w.a.g.s here what's gonna happen. The security cameras installed by/for Gravedigger were never removed and Shane Casey's been remotely spying on Adam and Stella in the lab supply closet for months. When he wasn't spying on Adam and Sheldon. Was easy, he just tapped into Mac's feed. The Compass Killer, the Phantom Killer (aka. Swabbie Cotton), Casey, and Gravedigger will be participating in a hip hop dance crew show down. Doktor Ray Ray and Teh Mighty H are gonna join in the interstate manhunt when the scavenger hunt sends Mac and Stella across state lines to art galleries across the country trafficking stolen tomato soup. Sid, on a speaking tour in Vegas, will join them. They will then all team up with Danny and Flack to defend the pride of kilted PD everywhere in a tag-team midget bingo lingerie wrestling league semi-final. At some point there will be a kerfuffle. Lucy will be kidnapped by a vampiric leprechaun who stows her in a booby trapped tricked out rent-controlled brownstone and makes his getaway on a formula one snowblower; he then acts as Shane Casey's get away driver. The escape is easy as Shane is never guarded by more than one red shirt at a time; (those Shirts remaining go on strike, being as none of them get paid enuff to deal with that shit). Sinclair gets fed up and retires. He and Jack Bauer go bowling. Gillian transfers to New Jersey where she meets a woman named Quinn. They launch an internal review investigating rampant rumours that Montana is actually from Idaho. Meanwhile Haylen's curvature of lettuce has turned up on EBay along with several NY police badges, and the FBI swoops in to claim jurisdiction. (Also available to bid on are a selection of reclaimed organic heroin distillations from Pino and CO, buzzard bean brew fine coffees, and undisclosed liver pates by Driscoll & Canary Associates. Available locally at Phil's Diner. Plz to take a number). Lucy by this point is nine years old. Tune in next season where she wakes up on a mysteriously and recently vacated island as an alternative to finding out the whole mess was nothing but a dream.
Or not.
. Dunno. Hard to care. Just getting very ...fidgety. Meh. Holiday weekend will be very nice. F*ck OT. Crispy and done. Not worth the jellybeans.
As for who's phoning what in, and who's got a hard on for what. Sometimes it seems as though the writers themselves are phoning it in, on behalf of someone else's over-running agenda. I'm sensing an internal percolation that speaks to another Dear Writers letter slowly coalescing. Seems to happen with a handful of eps left, having been frustrated and befuddled by the preceding.

Thanks for that
. So Stella's in recurrent peril on multiple occasions within one episode even. She's got a burr up about something for sure by the sounds of it. Guess they hafta cram as much in as possible this late in the season. Still. Stella hasn't had overmuch to do this year. How apparently going off on her own again after coming across so supervisory in the last couple of episodes could be an interesting angle.
Looking forward to it. Looking forward to new episodes in general, and concrete promos to chew on again

ETA: ^ thanks @
perlnoir for the link. CSINY does Prison Break? Nothing like a break-in/out sanctioned by the head of the NYPD Labs. Mind you, he blew those up when it suited too. Looks like a mix of older clips and a few tidbits from the upcoming Hawkes ep. Fun to see even a glimpse though
