Re: Episode #506 'Curse Of The Coffin' ***CONTAINS SPOILERS
Then I read the official blog, which says they used a real goat's head. So let me rephrase "impressed" to "disgusted."
Well, you can't please everyone, can you? I mean, they show the crime scenes all the time with violent deaths. Granted, the bodies aren't real but the manner of death is. What if someone whose parents or sister or brother or boyfriend or girlfriend or spouse was killed in that way? If the show(s) had to cater to everyone's whims and fancies, they wouldn't exist. The goat was already dead; animal cruelty isn't a factor here.
Anyways. The "Burn, baby, burn" line had me laughing so hard. I mean, honestly; this is Horatio Caine -- not only is it a slightly ridiculous line, but I just can't take the H-bomb seriously when he says something like that. And, yes, the fact that he got to the beach in under four minutes was tv!magic. Once again, Horatio saved the day. Explosions are getting a little overused on CSI: Miami, and I wish they'd come up with something different.
Ryan was just so genuine throughout this episode -- I loved him to pieces. The scorn at the beginning of the episode, then the gradual doubt and belief in the curse... Oh man. Even I was getting kind of spooked out by the way things went down. The way he and Delko interacted this episode was great. The friendship, while not always on its best terms, was evident. I didn't get the coffin though. Did Danielle remove it from the lab, or is that one more mystery we're left wondering about?
I didn't notice the soap bubble. Good thing I taped the episode for my mom -- she only watched to see Ryan run out of the morgue. XD
