    Ryan being fired, why continue watching? hide show

    Why do shows nowadays turn good characters bad or kill them off to get rid of them. Ryan may have made mistakes but he was always there for all. I enjoyed his character and what seemed like his growing friendship with Calleigh, great pair, now it's Delko and Calleigh no way Yuck As for story lines do they think that if you change the place and names we are not going to notice the repeating. That's it they have lost me I only stayed with there superfical story lines because of Calleigh and Ryan.

    Is this show CSI Miami or the Horatio Show? Nearly every episode revolves around him, At least I won't be there to see when he once more saves everyone.

    Why? hide show

    Why did Ryan get fired. I really do not understand. It's just silly and wrong, i wonder how they will rehire him. They can't just fire him like that without no more explanation. It really makes me wonder. Just like the time in CSI NY where they fired Claudia because she tried to frame a rapist by messing with the evidence. I know that it's wrong but still I feel so for them. They just tried to make the world a better place for all of us. The explosion was awesome too, the way the man got knocked back. Enjoyable in a weird way.

    Fast paced with a twist at the end... hide show

    I agree with all magdalena82 says about Ryan's bad luck. I actually like him in the team and hope he gets his job back. What I didn't get about this was that Horatio didn't go out of his way to find out what Ryan's problem was and to help him keep his job - when you consider how he has stuck his neck out for other team members in the past, it was out of character for H to let him go so easily.
    I wouldn't like a relationship to develop between Eric and Calleigh - they've been too much like brother and sister in the past for that to change now.
    And Yelena returns - in an ideal world she and Horatio will finally get together after Eric goes to H and tells him he should move on like Marisol would have wanted and H maybe opens up to him a bit about his feelings,and his past...then the writers could draw a line under all the angst and the team could get back to crime busting! In reality though, we are probably in for more "will they, won't they?" in future episodes.

    Absolutley brilliant epi after a poor start hide show

    This is one of the best episodes of the season hands down the season started off quiteslowly but this epi has turned it all around for me .
    the main focus for me was the developing relationship betweeen eric and calleigh when she got that peice of glass in her hand and he came over to help her take it out slowly they so looked like they were gonna kiss but tptb like to keep us all in suspence .
    OOh and i guess i should mention that ryan got fired which i saw coming mainly due to the spoilers i read and too right he was with a known criminal in the middle of a investigation i would say good riddence but hes coming back i know it hes like a bad smell :(
