Well for all the debate about Kyle working in the morgue at 17, I know for certain that 17 year olds (or specifically seniors in high school) are allowed to have cleaning jobs at the morgues in Massachusetts. I asked my friend about working there and she said it was part of a high school internship thing.
But really, if Horatio can drive a car from the center of the city to a beach in four minutes then walk away right as it blows up...I'm not going to worry to much about a 17 year old being in the morgue. :lol:
I have to agree that I wouldn't want to see Kyle as a regular. I adore Kyle and I adore H and Kyle together, but it wouldn't work for the show to have a non CSI related character as a regular. The show is about forensics and those who work with forensics.
Still, I think the writers are smart in what they're doing. Having him have a job in the morgue is an easy way to have him show up every once in a while. It's sort of like Tara. We don't really see her that much, but we definitely see her.
