CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

Expect more of the CSI signature storytelling. Two murder mystery stories. I tended to focus more on the vampire story because of the nature of incident. It was presented with more gusto than the casino heist.



Yet both stories are berethed of real action. The excitment is only generated by the breadcrumbs of clues that take us to discover the vampires killer is someone who we could never suspect! Frankly, this sort of device has become tiring. Yet one can argue with the quality of the writing. I just wish the crime plots werent cheapened in this way.



A decent episode if frustrating!

Brilliant! At the start when they turn the body over and it's a CPR dummy and then Grissom gives the great line "This is a crime scene" at the robbery before the opening credits, you never expect what's gonna happen throughout the episode.



This episode made me laugh quite a lot especially the bit when Nick fingerprinted the samurai sword and part of the paint work came off. When they do a non-murder crime scene I'm not normally in to it as much of a murder, but this one was very clever, and you're left wondering what else could possibly happen.



The vampire murder was clever as well, even if it was a little bit creepy, especially the guy at the clinic with the fangs. It was good that they brought the idea of the stereotypical hollywood vampire to it but also the reality element, once again giving you an insight in to a side of life that you had never before imagined.



A very good episode.

If you think this episode Suckers had a lot of plot twists you should see The town of Titipu, better known as the Mikado. Written and produced by Gillbert and Sillivan and originally produced in England. The plot is as twisted as the leather laces of my Uncle’s Harley Davidson Vest on a windy day. It is also kind of morbid. The plot revolves around a men going to his execution that becomes the executioner that can't execute anybody and three girls that are only two girls and well you get the idea. I think the CSI writers were trying to show this in the episode but it lost something in the translation. I will have to agree to disagree that Yeri is strictly a female name. There is more than one dichotomy in the Mikado an oriental Opera written by an Englishman with a pension for procrastination. The episode was cool with the vampires and with a name Lazarus Cain in the blood bar how could you lose. I knew nothing about absinthe but after this episode, lets just say a friend of a friend of an acquaintance who may or may not be associated with the FBI said it is very to come-by but like most things a paper bag full-o-cash is usually the ticket. Was this episode a little over the top? Could be. Was it a good idea? I think so.

I love CSI... But this episode *hurt*. They did VERY little, if any, research on Japan or Japanese history.

For a start, the collection belonged to a "Yuri Yamamoto" who showed up as a male. Yuri is a VERY female name. Not even close to unisex. The suit of armor would have been basically outdated by the time the "modern" military came along. That style of "samurai" armor is completely in line with a 17th century theme. Grissom finding the odd one out, when there really wasn`t an odd one out, just made the episode feel contrived and shallow.

As a CSI fan in Japan, it SUCKED.

This ep was kind of... odd. It was pretty well-written, but with the Japanese antiquities case, it had a bit too many twists and turns for me. I liked the whole "vampire" and blood thing, but it was a little creepy. This ep also should have had a GSR moment, but it really didn't. Overall well-plotted and not too bad!

Modern vampires live among us! This was an awesome episode! Once again the writers have out done themselves with a complex "robbery" and vampires in Las Vegas. In the first case, it's a genius robbery where things are defiantly not what they seem- anywhere. A "dead" CPR dummy is the ultimate distraction luring the CSIs away from a thief that stole a "seemingly priceless" sword and duck-tapped a security guard. After a lucky slip up from Nick, they expose the collector for the fraud that he is... after he skips town.. along with the fake appraiser, the security guard and millions of dollars in cash. All of this, of course, a complex plan the "merry band of actors" and their ring leader.

Now, for the vampires. Muhahahaha! Catherine and Warrick respond to a "vampire" who had her blood sucked out by "Dracula" or rather, a girl with a tattoo on her ankle and fangs has her jugular punctured by a a set of teeth. After a trip to a blood bar (I envy them) they track down her blood, in a personal fridge, where they arrest a mortal with a serious blood fetish.

This was an awesome episode, one of my favorites! The only thing that could have made it better would be a big GSR moment.. but of course, I haven't watched the episode for a while, and since they are on the same case... I probably missed it... "Three little maids from school are we..."

CSI : This episode was creepy it was an attempt at shownig the dark side of the human race.Do vampires really exist in todays society i\'m not sure one way or the other about real vampires, but this episode is a good shot in the dark.ha,ha.CSI is an amazing series that just gets better.
