Favorite series?

Normal CSI here. CSI: NY dosen't look that good...

CSI: Miami is trash. Its full of lame characters and David Curuso is clearly just strong arming the series into another boring cop drama where he gets to play the one role he can-the hardass cop. Plus he drives a Hummer.

Original CSI is awesome.

CSI: NY looks pretty bleak and dark even compared to the others. The jury is still out this one for me. Gary Sinese is a good actor, it might work. I guess we'll see.

I think they all suck. Each episode

'(Person) got killed in (someplace). Lets check it out'
'Hmm no clues, I'm stumped'
'Wait...what is this? It's a piece of (something), take it down to the lab and see what you can find out'
'Stupid subplot to make people belive each episode is different'
'The (something) comes up with posititve results It's showing high traces of (Scientific ho-hah)'
'hmmmm'
'He did it!'
'What? That's such a twist, I didn't expect it..oh wait I did'
'End'

Same thing with E.R. I hate that show too.

Some kid gets a tire jammed in his face because he was trying some dumb stunt (It usually changes between a black/white/cripple/asian/hispanic kid), the kid usually lives....meanwhile there is some lame subplot, usually one of the guys likes some nurse, or a character meets some family member. Then there is always the 'other' hospital patience. Like some guy that 'almost doesnt make it' because of the 'new guys' error or something. Most of the kids live, most of the babies die....It's boring. I almost cried when I heard them try and sound smart on E.R....one guy said something like "He needs 'someamount' of 'somecrap' before his right aorta shuts down"...did he just say...wow, just think about that one...

Agreed ^

I didn't vote 'cause I don't watch.

But anything with gary sinise in it has to be good. You can't go wrong with Lt. Dan!

Well except for that Mars movie, that was dumb.

I only ever watch CSI: Miami

Ok, CSI is lame, but ER just owns you.

New one doesn't look too good, CSI:Miami... Horatio annoys me. Original all the way.

How many CSI's does it take to change the channel?

Original CSI rules. CSI Miami just doesn't do anything for me. CSI NY looks lame.

....and on a related tangent, Cold Case sucks donkey balls.

CSI? Pfft, give me Law & Order.

Seconded; law and order hasn't gotten new and fancy, and has stuck to the old chace.

i just finished watching CSI orginal, i COULD be watching NY, but meh

Diagnosis Murder + Monk > *

Monk is godlike.

Monk is DOMINATING.
DOUBLE KILL
MULTIKILL
ULTRAKILL
M-M-M-MONSTER KILL

I think you understand.

I almost started crying with that statement. But ya i only watch CSI. CSI Miami and New York suck. Maybe the next one will be CSI Chicago! Im getting sick of them making a new one every year tho.

I'm always at work on Tuedays, so I only get to see CSI: Miami on Wednesdays, which is really good. Would probably love normal CSI if I ever got to see an episode of it.

ER is about the characters, SAJN. The patients come and go each week and are entirely forgettable, it's the doctors and nurses who are brilliantly written and keep us watching.

As far as good TV drama goes: Everything else - Band of Brothers = The Sopranos

If I'm ever bedridden, give me a TV, a DVD player, Band of Brothers, Sopranos season 1-5, and I'll be a happy man.

Nip/Tuck is perhaps my favorite TV Drama of all time. It's just...amazing. Unless you count Farscape as a TV drama :p

Damn straight!

I'm not really a fan of CSI:M because the main character knows EVERYTHING. I mean it. He measures the road, and says a guy is lying based off of the width of a tire. GAH.

You forgot the cliche scenes where they're doing very normal stuff in a dark lab, looking down microscopes and writing down things, while some big techno beat is playing. :p

CSI: Canada


"woh, looks leik this guy tooka beevar to the head eh?"
"Yeah, let's take 'im to the lab! *picks up body and drags it into a warehouse*"

I like the original CSI. CSI:M didn't somehow interest me at all. Dunno if they ever show the NY here in Finland, but I doubt I would watch it either. I think the original has pretty good and balanced characters. The repetition of plot elements hasn't bothered me so far.

Yeah. That show does blow. I mean, a lot of the stuff they 'get them' on in CSI is kind of a stretch and probably wouldn't hold up in court...I mean, lets face is, most juries are just going to be like "That guy looks like he did it." and then go "I don't get it" to a lot of the in science behind the prosecution. And don't think the defense isn't going to have its own group of paid 'experts' to say its all a load of crap.

New Drama idea:
Dark Forces III: Jedi Knight II: CSI: flawed legal system: The rich killers always get away with it.

But Cold Case is even worse. Its like "Your finger print was found on a 100 year old toliet seat next door to the crime scene 50 years ago. And the drunk bar tender thinks that he saw you that day even though it was 50 years ago and witness testimony is virtually useless in court to begin with. We nailed you!"
