    Until a few weeks ago, I didn't watch TV (excluding sports, of course!). Hrm, and the news. And 60 Minutes. Okay, to reword that, I didn't watch TV shows. Then my girlfriend was over, and we were looking for something to watch, so I popped in a DVD of CSI: Las Vegas that my sister had left at home. That was a mistake.
    Now, I'm racking up episodes of CSI: Miami on my TiVo and I find myself fiending and scouring the intertubes for more episodes. Earlier I had several tabs open for the cheapest way to buy seasons on DVD, and I'm currently downloading an episode of Miami on iTunes to see how the quality turns out and see if that is a decent method of purchase.

    Has anyone else had this problem? What's worse is that I know how cheesy Horatio's lines are... and I still watch! :p

    Caruso's mannerisms and corny macho lines are what keep me coming back.

    It's hard to imagine anyone taking that ginger-haired clown seriously.

    The entire show is a fantasy. Big-breasted babes show up for work in low-cut tops and white pants to collect crime scene evidence. The criminals use weapons unknown even to Hollywood sci-fi (the latest was "fused alloy rounds" bullets that mysteriously fragment upon touching warm flesh yet stay together in the hot gun barrel). Last year it was "The Obliterator", a weapon that simultaneously fired thousands of rounds. They do DNA on everything they touch (and have results by lunchtime). The department budget is obviously huge (everyone drives a Hummer with custom wheels).

    Here is the problem I have with that show:

    1) A room with 200 party guests, and a girl is murdered.
    Whoulda think that in a room of 200 people, the ONLY finger print on a wall belongs to the killer ?

    2) You can watch the show for 59 minutes and 45 seconds (figuratively speaking), and it all comes down to the last 15 seconds when Caine says 'I have your DNA'.

    Why watch a show when 75% of the episodes come down to DNA at some point ?

    David Caruso is type-cast for life, but when you get paid as much as he is, I guess that's OK.
    Dennis Franz is.
