Ignore my random jumping in...it's just been a while. And I want my avatar back.
I agree with pretty much everything. But for character centric epppies, I thought Ellie (going back to season one) was pretty good. Not all characters took a backseat, but I really like the focus on Warrick and the old Sara. But that doesn't count, does it?"
I'm not even going to add to the GSR and Catherine thing. All I'll say is that during the latter half of season seven, they should have temporarily changed the name to GSC: With Hodges, too, instead of CSI.
I loved Hodges since his first appearance. But really, when he gets more screen time in one episode (you know the one) than Greg gets in the first three seasons, something is seriously wrong.
But, I'm holding out for September 20th. It almost seems like they have no choice but to focus on the rest of the CSIs, namely Nick and Greg.
