Season 11 "Spoiler Lab" Discussion Part 2

[vegaslights]

Eric Stonestreet, who played Ronnie, is now on Modern Family. He's phenomenal. Not sure why he stopped recurring every now and then, but he definitely scored a big whopper of a role on MF.

Official cast list and new title for episode one, courtesy of CBS:

CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION is a fast-paced drama about a team of forensic investigators trained to solve crimes by examining the evidence. They are on the case 24/7, scouring the scene, collecting the irrefutable evidence and finding the missing pieces that will solve the mystery. Catherine Willows, a hard-working single parent with a checkered past and a teenage daughter she's raising on her own, heads the team of investigators at the Crime Lab in Las Vegas, following previous leader Gil Grissom's departure. The team's other members include Dr. Raymond Langston, a former pathologist who joined the Las Vegas Crime Lab after consulting on a serial killer case; Nick Stokes, a true-blue stand-up guy who empathizes with victims via his own experiences; and Greg Sanders, the off-beat tech analyst turned field investigator. The CSI team members also work closely with Capt. Jim Brass, the former chief, now assigned to Homicide; Dr. Albert Robbins, the ever-professional medical examiner and his assistant, David Phillips; and David Hodges, a lab technician with specialties in trace and foreign-substance analysis.

Wow, Marg is first in the credits! They finally realized to do it. I hope the same with the opening credits every episode next season.

It seems the fans are not the only ones who have had jaw-dropped with the previous title. But I prefer 'Blow' than the new title. :devil: :lol:

It may appear that way in writing but I wouldn't count on seeing that in the opening credits. Fishburn is still their golden boy whether we like it or not. Sad but true.

Maybe, just for a change of pace, they should do the opening credits in the style of the brady bunch.

"I think fans will be satisfied. She will be able to say goodbye to Hodges, and Hodges will take his anger and heartbreak out on a fellow tech."

Hmm, so is it the new girl or poor Henry again he takes it out on? Henry would be funnier. :lol:

I was thinking it would be Henry. :lol:

:guffaw: That would be hilarious!

:guffaw: I'm all for that :guffaw:

I've always thought that when the did the lab rat episodes, the opening credits should be the lab rats instead of the regular cast. Now that would have shocked of everybody. :lol:

I've always thought that when the did the lab rat episodes, the opening credits should be the lab rats instead of the regular cast. Now that would have shocked of everybody. :lol:

:guffaw: That would rock!

The order of some of the others is changed too - Paul above Eric, etc. So if that's the actual order of the credits, it's a lot of switching around.

That's what they said in the Lab Rats commentary on the DVD - Liz Vassey (I think) said that the opening credits should have just been all of them, doing really boring things like looking at test tubes.

 

[blackflag]

Don't really think that's going to be the order in the opening credits. Being last is like being first. Why would they change where Paul is.


I dont' know if we had a date for it before or not but Sqweegel is episode 11x03 and at the moment is set to be aired on October 14th. (according to the site we can't link to )

Anthony Zuiker is happy to announce that black Sqweegel from Level 26: Dark Origins is going to appear on CSI on October 14, 2010. The episode is entitled "Sqweegel". Stay tuned to be scared to death.

while it would be nice to see Marg having the opening bill, I'm just assuming that this is a general list with the unwritten "ladies first" gesture.

 

[frickangel]

I highly doubt they'll put Paul above Eric in the opening credits, not because I'm a Greg fan but because the last spot on the credits is as big as being the first, so this may just be--as someone mentioned--a 'ladies first' gesture.

As for being the only female in the main cast, I think a lot of shows have done it. 'X-Files' is one show that popped in my head. In fact, since they've dropped Liz Vassey, I much prefer Marg being the only female lead as opposed to them rushing to cast another female just to make this more balanced.

That would be funny..

Catherine would appear on the screen with someone singing, "Here's the story of a lovely lady who was in charge of of team made up of men.."

 

[Geeno]

I didn't know what 'Brady Bunch' is. Thanks to Youtube for some videos! :lol: That would be hilarious for a CSI opening theme! :guffaw:
