    Very talented. hide show

    I have to say that this actor Wallace langham is a very good actor. He has played in a lot is seems however the only role I know him as is Hodges in CSI. In the show CSI he is perfect. The corky yet intelligent obsessive character is just perfect there would be nobody else that could pull that part off. Apparently the producers see that because they gave him an episode centered around him. So that has to mean something. And, if my memory serves me correct wasn't there a box that shows up on Grissom's desk in the last show. Does this mean Hodges will solve that too? But, I would not want him as an investigator doesn't think that would work out too well.
