Turtlebaby I agree with you about Speed. The show just went down the crapper without him. Or you know, maybe it wasn't because of him but I don't care. I have my opinion and that's what it is.
I just think the writers need to redeem themselves by taking their 'vacation' to do some serious thinking and some serious planning. The entire show seems like such a farce. It's beginning to be stereotypical. A beautiful babe dying, not a mark on her. The man who murdered her was some jelous and arrogant model who wouldn't know his arse from a hole in the ground. And then we get a bunch of confusing dialogue between people who have nothing to do with anything, some useless banter from the cast that looked a little too forced, and then the classic cliché that is David Caruso and his shades.
After every episode, it seems to get quite monotonous. Perhaps they should ween themselves away from these plotlines and try something a little more tangible. How about reality? Have a regular person murdered. What happened to the 'geriatric dudes who dig the weather'? What happened to the old gritty streets? The inventive ways of seeing someone bite the dust. We've already gathered that Miami is a vibrant, cultural, and sexy place to be but come on...They're pushing it a little far. Not every night is Spring Break. Let it go and give us some normalicy for once.
Even if the bright lights make the show seem overly glistening and gleaming, it contrasts the actual darkness of the characters. No matter how many lights we see, it does not make up for or hide the fact that the characters need to lighten up. For pete's sake, it's like watching sleep-deprived robots. It couldn't kill them to crack a smile. Of course nowadays, anything could kill. In the case of CSI:Miami, it's just dull and uninventive.
