geezlouieez, I always miss teh opening of a new thread :lol:.
Thanks
Fay and
perl for all the info and pics
Major lols at the immediate vehement visceral reaction to Peyton :lol:
I'm not looking for Peyton to come back, hope that's not to be, but I still think the case surrounding her return and how she's mixed up into it could make for a good episode. It also does look like she and Mac might confront the crappy writing of how it ended between them
. Her mere presence does actually make for an interesting conflict for Gary to play. I'm not talking about the triangle aspect here, but her reappearance on the flip side of a case (at least initially for the reveal). A change up for Mac could be interesting, and really quite welcome, compared to the role he's usually asked to fill in an ep. I think that's actually what I'm looking forward to seeing.
I also don't think Peyton needs "vindication" as a character :lol:, not all characters hafta be likeable all the time. For the most part I did though, or, at least I appreciated what having her there was able to do for Mac's character in S3, along with Reed. Apart from Adam and Sid, I don't think there have been any characters whom I've not wanted to earflick or headslap on one occasion or another :lol:. Works for the show and a foibled realm. She's been brought back by the show this time to deliberately stir shit up, and so far so good by the looks of things :lol: (and by viewer responses :lol:
. ...Yep, I'm betting PV's a happy little camper here with the whole run up to the finale
)
I'm not having nearly as intense a reaction to Peyton as others seem to be
. I guess I'm at the point where anything a bit different from CSI:TehUsual is welcome, or at least the attempt. That includes having one of our fearless and indefatigable team send their red cape to the dry cleaners and wow but have a nod to non-spontaneous healing (Flack and your ribs, Stella and your little friend Perpetual Peril, & Mister Ten Percent, I'm looking at yous
). We'll see how well the show manages the various circumstances they've created. I really can't help but treat this as a one-off blast from the past wot minorly complicates the present but will likely have no substantial impact on the future, and enjoy the ep.
(yes, I remember the PV spoilers and twilit triangle nonsense etc. Call me skeptical of what sort of soul-searching choice will actually be required of anyone, how long term any relationship was/is intended to be, at least in terms of literal depiction vs. inference, and what will actually be required in terms of follow up in S7 to bookend it).
Actually, you'll see Lucy Messer as 'CSI: NY' ends its season.
~ Someone asked what's coming up for Danny and Lindsay in this video. Here's a transcription of the answer:
Whatever it is, executive producer Pam Veasey is being super coy about it. Veasey would only say that Danny and Lindsay figure into the season finale big event and that it would cause more than a few gasps. Since serial killer Shane Casey is in the mix, we can't imagine that being a good thing.
...and so. Lucy makes her second appearance in the series. So she'll be four or five by now?? :lol:. Kidding. Still deeply ambivalent about the finale/doomhanger, especially with Lucy about. Guess we'll see if the wee'un will actually have any part to play in the "o my go0dness" aspect of the cliffhanger.
A question about Hawkes from MegaBuzz - he might
actually get a girlfriend next season. I'll believe that when I see it.
Will Hawkes ever have a love interest on CSI: NY? — Clarisse
MegaBuzz: No one wants that more than Hill Harper. "Hawkes definitely needs some lovin'. Folks have been tweeting to me, saying, 'Mac's in a love triangle and Hawkes can't even get one?'" Harper says with a laugh. The good news: Harper says executive producer Pam Veasey thinks she's found the perfect woman for Hawkes
next season. "She didn't give me the woman's name, but she said she's out of New York and I believe she's a model and an actress. So, we'll see what happens."
Yay Sheldon
. Well, we'll see if it happens. Mebbe casting is part of the reason it didn't pan out this season. Hope it works out for the next, and that they're taking the time to have her inclusion integrated into a good story, and to have it well done.
As for the pics
.
:lol: oh
man but Mac looks a right f*cking crankyboots in the pic where he's holding the papers :lol:. (Mebbe it's having to try and use chopsticks lefthanded, poor starving bastard...
)
And yes, I'm looking forward also to seeing Adam poking about Mac's place, with Mac all but anchored and glaring and/or pinching his brow from his chair. And certainly I don't mind if Stella's cleavage makes an appearance :lol:
.
Nice balcony btw.
Thanks, Perl! Really loving Mac's apartment. Looks like he has a serious splint on his wrist. Wonder how they will explain that!
It is a nice interior set. Looks very good. As for his injuries. Splint and a rather conspicuous foot up, no less
. I'm wondering a few things meself, especially with the switching of episode airings...
Eg. I'm wondering if Mac gets hurt in during Undercard, gets tended to by Aubrey no less shortly before the fade to black; the eps transition, the next one starts, after he's been essentially shunted home to recuperate, with Stella checking in to ensure he hasn't escaped back to work again, seeing as she's the only one who has the chutzpah and comparable seniority to kick him out of the labs and his office; once he's locked down and Adam's been installed as baby-sitter/beer fetcher/poker abouter of Big Mac's framed items and personal stuff, the whole Hitchcockian reappearance of Peyton kicks in... (the personal items and the past relationship also possibly being what Adam "interrogates" Mac about)
.
My other working theory is that Danny finally told Mac about the badge. Mac put his fist thru assorted expensive lab equipment and generally trashed the lab, ensuring Adam gainful employment while Stella requisitions new gear and Sheldon does his best to repair the leftovers in the meantime. Mac was careful not to use his left hand, ensuring he'll be able to continue playing in bar bands when he finally tosses his own badge off somebody's forehead. Sinclair considers volunteering his. The one pic above was Danny looking upon the tazmanianesque whirlwind of destruction in frozen dread but also fascination while still eyeballing the best moment to make a break for the door, and thereafter Long Island, where he thinks he'll be safe for a couple of days until things blow over. Little does he know of course. Interim, Gillian sends Mac home to write up his incident report, simply thankful he didn't blow anything up or return the favor of a few seasons ago by setting Messer on fire. Later, Adam, surreptitiously awaits his chance to be the first to sign Mac's cast, but he's afraid to get close enough to do so.
As for the two brunette docs
. Some similarities as a type, sure, but not twinned by any means. I was worried the show might try to play off that for dramatic purposes, ie. have one mistaken for the other on a darker level of case related bruha, but I don't think they'll actually have much to do with each other. Which is likely to be a good thing in my books.
Welcome home. V! Peyton!!!!!!!!
