Grissom & Sara #11 - WE know what to do about "This"

Re: Hello thar.

I was thinking about something, mainly because I was re-reading HP6, and it was about Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks. Lupin keeps saying that Tonks deserves someone who's younger and has more energy (or something... I don't have the book in front of me).

And Grissom should never complain about the age difference. Cleopatra and Caesar were 19 and 52 when they got together. That's 33 years difference. Sara and Grissom are only 15 years apart. And Cleopatra had a kid.
 
Hello everyone! I've been reading this particular thread for quite a bit, and finally decided to jump in! I've brought bright green duct tape (for a Christmasy feel).

I'm the only one in my group of friends who is really into GSR (though one of them has admitted that it exists), so this will be a nice place to rant when no one else will know what the heck I'm talking about!

I just watched your video, grisslybear ! Very sweet!

As to what Grissom and Sara have been up to this season, I think that when they have worked cases in between the episodes, they probably had about the level of comfortness we saw in ABRTI 2. I have strong vibes that *this* is the season where something big (in a positive manner) will happen for them, at least by the finale.

I agree, beautifulview , you tell yourself that spoilers are evil and that you'll enjoy the episode so much more if you don't read them, but then the link to them just gets so tempting :)

BTW: I've been wondering for a while . . . what does TPTB stand for? Sorry, I've just tried to make possibilities and they all don't seem to work . . .
 
Hey Welcome! :D

And I think it stands for "The Power To Be" which is basically the producers and writters ect. Im not sure though, thats just what someone told me.
 
thats what someone told me too. and welcome to isisathena to our little gutter/family! page 19, are we going to pick a new name soon?

9dots i like your *intertextuality* as my english prof. calls it. i always did think that tonks and lupin would be a good match, and he's well more than 15 years older than her!
 
Thank you so much for the "translation" of TPTB :) That has been bugging me for the longest time . . . I've been able to decipher all the others (ie. YTDAW and episode abbriviations), but not this! Thanks again!

As for the RemusTonks thing, I never thought of it as being a connection to GSR, but it does make sense . . . ::digs out book:: Yup, their dialogue they have at the end of book six does seem to imply that it is similar. Remus is afraid to love Tonks because of it being dangerous (since he is a werewolf), which would be like Grissom being afraid to love Sara becaus he is afraid about it interfering with work.

If we were to follow through with the similarities, that would mean they get together at the end of sixth book/sixth season. That is perhaps wishful thinking for the CSI part, though :)
 
hey hey hey. 6th book.... 6th season? eh eh? giggle. its very late...

ok back to GSR-ing. Snakes was on tonight... i dont care much for the ep, but i love that one scene... "why do you think i moved to vegas?"

sigh... i miss the good old days. i bet TPTB have this one writer who'd pro-GSR tied to a chair, duct-taped... oh well.

after all, he's the reason she moved to vegas
 
A warm GSR Gutter welcome to IsisAthena *showers our new shipper with cookies and duct tape*

A warm welcome also to Syoban *showers her with more cookies and duct tape* - please do come back and hang with us some time - I love your site, btw - its really terrific.

I'm really sorry someone has been hotlinking to your site. Guys, just to remind you all that hotlinking is NOT allowed here - it's very costly to the site you're hotlinking from and its really unfair to them. It's not called "Bandwidth Theft" for nothing - it is actually stealing, and I won't tolerate it if I catch anyone doing it - you have been warned.

*removes mean mod hat and puts on santa hat*

ahem, okay, now that that is out of the way, more Christmas cheer (i'm trying to stay Christmassy, despite the fact that my retail job that I'm still at part-time is beating the christmas spirit out of me - shoppers are CRAZY!!!) I was fooling around on paint last night and made a couple new Christmassy avis - but boy oh boy do I really need photoshop or paintshop, cuz these aren't that great...

BTW, has anyone made their GSR Christmas tree yet? I keep forgetting (shame on me) but I'll try and get it done in the next few days.

I'm loving the GSR/HP analogy. I loved the fact that Tonks and Lupin got together at the end of book 6, but I'd never drawn the comparison between them and our very own GSR until now - but I totally see it. When Lupin says "She deserves someone young and whole", I can totally imagine Grissom saying it.

We should start thinking of a new thread title, so that we can put up the poll at the top of page 20. Any suggestions? Should we resurrect some of the old titles that didn't win the polls in the past or does anyone have any new ideas?
 
Aw, thanks for the warm welcome! forensicsgirl , very spiffy avis . . . if you can do that with paint, it would be very neat to see what you can do with more advanced software!

About the GSR Christmas tree, maybe I'll be able to get my creative juices pumping to put something together by next weekend . . . :)

What were some of the old thread name ideas? I don't want to suggest anything until I'm sure it's not been used before.
 
I think it's time to use the "Come on, I'll Take You Home"... it's been plugged enough.

As for Lupin/Tonks - I absolutely loved that scene in the book. I didn't see it coming, but you're right - it very much mirrors the two of them. Especially with Tonks's downhill slide right before they got together.

I'm holding out hope - they did way too much GSR promotion at the beginning of this season to just drop it because one scene couldn't air. If L.H. really does show up, I don't think it can be construed as a bad thing. In what looks like the Year of Grissom, to have a former love interest pop out of the blue... I can't see the episode simply being, "Gee, I'm very uncomfortable about LH - I'll give this to Warrick and Nick while I work on an unrelated case". They will interact, and the question is... will he be into her anymore?
 
interesting thought sarahvma!! i do agree with you but now i need to express my frustration about gsr: i mean from the beginning of the season, tptb said that we were going to have huge gsr this season etc..... ok it was supposed to aired on "gum drops" but it didnt happen (i dont wanna be pessimistic but i dont think that the scene between sara and grissom would aired like it was writing :rolleyes:)and except that small scene on "bite me" and the one on ABRTI part 2, nothing , nothin, nothing!!!!! im just getting bored of that, it drive me crazy!!!!!! we are on the middle of the season and we are waiting for more interaction (not necessarily romance but a conversation will be appreciated)....im tired you know, very tired and my frustration is getting higher.... what do you all think about that?
 
And after Lupin says that Tonks deserves 'someone young and whole', Mr. Weasly says (one of my favorite lines) "And after all, Remus, young and whole men do not necessarily remain so."

I saw some "Merry Grissmas" icons by wallflowered at the houseicons lj community... pretty cool ones. One with WP in a Santa hat and the one I have :)
 
Sissi I understand your frustration. What TPTB don't understand is that viewers do get frustrated and leave the ship if they drag things along for too long. But seriously, if you look at the clues, you'll see that there is obviously something going on this season. I'll give you some rationales:

1. Jorja was asked TWICE about GSR, and one was on the official CBS website. There are two romances acknowledged on this show. One is GSR, the other is Cath-Warrick.

2. Jorja said Sara's "hot air balloon" is going to sail this season. I don't see Sara being ecstatic without it having anything to do with Grissom. It just doesn't fit the character IMO.

3. Gum Drops was written, meaning that in the 5th episode of the season, we would see a scene where there is heavy breathing in a dark room, Sara in nothing but a towel in the morning, and Grissom treating this whole situation like it is the most normal thing in the world. They may have cut some of the parts of the scene, but Mendelsohn said CSI's will "sleep together" and TVGuide called this the "CSI sex scene". No way it wouldn't air.

What I think is the problem is, TPTB are not aware how awkward and strange things are now, without Gum Drops. It looks like they just replaced that episode, and didn't compensate for it. But I am sure they are going to do it soon. So no worries! :D

As for the thread title, I like "I'll take you home" for a line from the show. For an outside line, if we'll do a poll, I suggest Forensicsgirl's "Grissom and Sara: Secretly Doing it Since 2005" :D

EDIT:Beautifulview and IsisAthena, thanks a lot for your nice words about my video :)
 
good to see that you understand me :D i dont feel alone now :lol: as for the relationship, i just hope they give us something soon..... im still waiting :rolleyes:
 
Hey
Welcome Isisathena.
About the thread title i am all for "Come on.I´ll take you home".
On the relationship thing..I think that it is sort of weird because of the missing scene and they could at least compensate, because i am like really confused, because if that scene had aired, I wouldn´t have any doubt about a realtionship, but now.....
Oh and the Harry potter comparison-well spotted, I am a total Harry Potter fanatic and I agree that their are similarities(hehe Book 6-season 6-that´s gotta be a sign!!)
