Anya's sharing her appart with Sasha who is trying to become a actress like Anya. Christine cant be younger than Anya cause she has children.
 
I think i'll second that, Veggie. & 'member Sasha was saying that guy sounded soooo old & she goes "he was like 35". I thought that was hilarious! I think Anya would be about 22?! I always imagined it like Anya was the 'oops baby' & that Nat & Christine would be closer to each others age. du-really-no!
 
Well, I just have no idea to be truthful. And yeah the, "He was like 35" was probably one of the best lines of that episode
 
Flail_Master, thanks for the pictures, she looks great :)

About her sisters, I don't know either, but I am almost sure that Anya is the youngest. As for the other sister, I don't know. I don't remember her being mentioned :confused:

But "Darkroom" is such a good episode. I loved it! Her face when she saw the photos :rolleyes: Well, and about the whole storyline, I have a question, maybe you can help me. I saw a video with Eva, she was telling the same story that happened in this episode, but I felt that it was for real, it seemed news, not a summary of the episode. I think it was about Eva personally. Like if her sister was in the same kind of thing Anya was, and that Eva recognized her or something in the pictures they showed. Does anyone know for sure? Sorry if this sounds stupid.
 
thanx for the pics Flail_Master! she's gorgeous.

i saw that too and i thought it was an actual interview and that really happened to her and thats where they got the storyline from. idk, its been a while since i watched it. i thought that was really interesting and must have made that episode really personal for her.
 
i never saw the interviews but i do know for sure that the epi was inspired by Eva & her sister Nika's real life experience w/ the serial killer, it was in the 80's when it happened but i can't remember the guys name. No one was hurt or kidnapped, i think it was just that Nika's pictures got in his hands & this was a man who was killing women (like in the epi). They had a big thing (on him)on 48 Hours & Eva was interviewed. I'm sure you could search it & find the true story. BTW, lovely pics!! Love the dress. Love the casualness (sunnies on her head)! She must have the best bra ever! love her!
 
I wonder if she called her sister more often after that. It would be tempting to call your sister more often just to make sure she was ok. Anybody can be killed at any time. We don't know how long anyone has to live. We should appreciate our families now.

Ok, so as you see I am new in this thread, but despite the fact that I always liked her, I am really starting to like her more and more every episode that passes, and the same goes to Eva's acting :) So I figured I should really pass by.
Welcome to the thread, CSI_Dani! It's always great to see another Eva/Natalia fan. :D

edited because i just saw the emmy nomination and eva's not there i'm pised off!!! she's good enough for the day time but not for the primetime its ridiculous.
Again, it all comes down to the writing. (Well... usually.) You could give the best actress in the world a really crappy script and no matter how talented she may be, it just doesn't make up for the writing.

I just typed up this huge paragraph where I tried explaining all of this, but it didn't make any sense to me. I'm hoping this might help: There's a really great Eva/Maria moment titled "Maria's Meltdown" on a site-that-must-not-be-named. ;) If you ever happen to come across it, you'll see just how brilliant Eva is and why she was nominated for a Daytime Emmy. Look at how much the writers gave her to work with and how well she did it all. And now think about how much the writers have given her (or any of the other actors) on CSI: Miami. Nothing in these last two seasons can compare to that Eva/Maria moment.

So I don't think that she's not good for Primetime. It's some of the poor choices made by the writers that aren't good for Primetime.

i have this theory that even without a gun, natalia would be able to protect herself. (not to say i don't want to see her with a gun b/c i do, and i think you all know this :D) she was abused so she probably took self defense classes. thats just a hunch on my part but it seems logical.
I agree. It'd make sense that she took a few self defense classes after Nick. Do you remember when Michael Lipton jumped up and grabbed her arm in interrogation that one time? I noticed she took a really defensive stance--taking a step back, grabbing onto his wrist, maintaining eye contact... Maybe the group that she's part of teaches self defense to the women?

Natalia is definitely a great addition to the cast, and I like her street-smart approach to things, instead of the book-smart you would expect.
I agree. She's such a fresh breath of air. She ruffled some feathers last year, but the team finally accepted her and she's settled in nicely. I like what she has to bring to the job and her approach on some things is refreshing.

& again, near the finale the 'abuse' being brought up again. Just really makes me think her injuries will be involved somehow. Either that or something will happen to her to make her arm worse or god only knows how they'll play it out.
They brought up the abuse again? Wow... When? And where the heck was I?

I think you're right. I'm willing to bet that Anya is the youngest. Nothing was ever mentioned about the other sister, except that her name was Christine. I'm going to assume that Christine is older than Anya because she has at least two kids...

Unless Natalia has a brother. :eek:

...But let's not get into that.
 
umm.. ok (looks up at post). Anyhoo. to answer BOA FISTA FAN, I probably should of been more specific about the 'abuse' thing. I just meant that in the epi when Michael Lipton grabbed her. It seemed 'thrown in' & then Eric asking if she was ok, in my eyes it was the writers way of bringing up the abuse again, just very lightly. i guess it depends on how you view the show; I always keep in mind the epi titles 'cuz alot of times it'll bounce off all stories in the show & little things that are said or done that seem 'unfinished' gets thrown into a story later. to me it just seemed 'off' that they threw in this situation w/ Michael Lipton that really had nothing to do w/ the actual epi. i dunno, it's just how i view things. heres an example: in S4 we found out she was abused in "collision", then it was totally dropped w/out even a mention for the rest of that season. Then comes S5, the 1st epi, Nick was brought up (during argument w/ Ryan); epi 2, her & eric interrogating Angela (Nat talks about being scared, ect.) & Nick is mentioned again about the gangs. & then boom he resurfaces in like epi 4. anyway, thats all i was getting at. I suppose i could be reading to much into it but ..well.. i kinda like my version so i'll go w' it til next season ( smiles big & cheezy) :D. WELCOME NEWBIES!! Don't forget your complimentary Midori cocktail on the way out!! :p
 
heres my thoughts on the "random info popping up" bit. which i totally agree with btw. sometimes things don't make a lot of sense until you read into them. anyway, i think the writers have tried to put so much on each character that when they have an episode that deals with that one person and what they are going through they try to keep continuity (not always successful) in the show by throwing in references to the others. did i just make any sense? anyway, thats just my opinion. i could be wrong, its happened before. :p
