CSI: NY

THE BEGINNING:

This proves to be a very great episode from the beginning. We have TWO count them TWO Supermen. We have the one football player, and the second who actually thinks he is Superman. And we see the empty clothes in phone booth. And glasses. Greaaaaat. I love their expressions when they see it. I love how this series inserts humor into everything.



THE CASES:

There was the first superman, who saved the one guy's life. Actually, as it turns out, he has saved a lot of people's lives. Awww. He is such a sweetie. And it's touching to see how he had an affect on everyone's lives. I loved how as Mac pointed out, it seems he wasn't fit to take care of himself, hence being in the special needs home, but when he put his everything to it, he could take care of others. It was a very sweet comment (I love Mac!)

This case was increasingly interesting (both cases were actually). I loved the bit with the Kryptonite. My response immediately was "What? Noo waaaay. It can't be." I didn't like how Mac calls him a vigilante, I loved how Stella stood up for him. I also loved Stella's reaction the kryptonite, "that explains everything." The writers on this series are geniuses at times. I swear. I loved his name Clark Kranen. Really, so much like Clark Kent. Then we find out why he "is how he is" as Mac puts it. Clark fell out of a building when trying to be like Superman.

Sup's getting his money from his brother. The krypton was from the fluorescent lighting he broke. Then we meet Clark's older brother and we really feel for him. I loved how Mac talked to him and how he says he believes Clark saved the money because he knew his brother would need it some day. So sweet. At first I thought the brother was a jerk but then I fell for him. The poor guy was just down on his luck. The other mental ward patients looking at them and watching them was great. They have super hero names too. They were friends with Clark and said how Clark knew there was something up in the hospital and Justice would be served. Then we have the jerk of an orderly who actually killed him. Ugh that made me so angry. I hate it when people make fun of others after "playing nice."



Then there was the case with the football superman. I loved the bits with Danny and Lindsay, they did great on this case. There were also twists here. Lindsay was right, Victor did not bleed out: air was forced into the blood stream. The number on his chest was a bit creepy. I understood the chick did it cause she thought oooo sexy. No. That's creepy. Stalker creepy. Weirdo.

This one was great if only for the DL scenes. Hahah no. it was so sad to see the father in the very end. I loved how Danny didn't yell at him. He just said, I'm sorry for your daughter. Very sweet. It's sweet that while he knows yeah he killed a man, I mean well the football star did basically kill his girl and just left her there. And then he didn't even get punished, just some community service because they didn't want to ruin his chances. Too bad they didn't know about his knee. GOD. That upset me.



FAVORITE SCENES:

First definitely had to be the bit with Danny and Lindsay where Lindsay is reciting facts of the dead football hero and Danny is shocked she likes football. Then he tells her it's dangerous since he might ask her to marry him. So cute!!



Then there was the ending with the super men. Mac gets the call after talking to the brother, Flack is in an awesome chase scene (I love his expressions in those!), Lindsay is working with ballistics and shooting guns to get test shots, Hawkes is working with some cool X-RAY thing. MWAHAH he is awesome. Danny is giving footballs from the superman football player to kids, (AWW!) And then end with Stella and Mac on another case... and they are ducking under crime scene tape… (That sent shivers down my spine! I love them!!)



DL FAN CRAZINESS:

What is up with Danny constantly asking Lindsay for food? An obvious sign of affection. He constantly wants to go have lunch with her. AND WHY does she always say NO?!



OVERALL:

This was a great episode. Both cases were great additions to the series. Both cases displayed a vital fact of society. I loved both cases because they let you feel for the people. There was some great acting in this episode as well. Both by the brother and the father. And of course, our super men (and women).

Again another play on words in the title of our episode. But we have one true "superman" in Clark who makes every attempt within his power to see that justice is done. Just like Mac & Stella when it comes to finding his killer. Then we have a football "star" with an overinflated ego who from the looks of it has never been held responsible for any of his actions other than on the football field. Well, Elaine's father, in a fit of rage that Elaine's memory was forgotten and brushed aside, took matters into his own hands. Terrell Mann is dead but that didn't bring Elaine back and now her faither is on his way to jail. The one thing I did appreciate was Danny's voice of sympathy to Elaine's father at the loss of his daughter. It shows the need to get the job done but having compassion at the same time.

So there's this guy named Clark, who changes in a phone booth and goes around saving people while wearing a cape... No, you're not watching the wrong series. This episode is one of my favorites. Stella and Mac investigate the death of a quasi-vigilante turned out to be psychiatric patient who believes he is Superman, and was convinced that there were enemies within the institution. Unfortunately, he was right. It was a cleverly plotted storyline, and the tone of it was done nicely.

As for the other dead guy (hehe), I felt sorry for the girl's father. He tried doing a good thing, but he just wasn't able to hold himself back when provoked.

I liked this episode alot. There was great banter between Stella and Mac when Stella asks Mac if he ever pretended to be a super hero. I thought it was cute.:).



Stella and Mac work a case about a man who believes he's superman. The man goes around attempting to save people, but this time it ends fatally. I didn't expect it to be the orderly that took care of him.



Lindsay and Danny work on a case of a murdered sports professional. The killer was unexpected as well. For some reason I liked how the food cart tied into it all, by how it made a crese in the rug to soak up more blood.



I also loved how it showed the whole team working with the superman music playing in the background at the end.

So in this episode, we have a case where a young teenager was found dead in a Superman suit. In another seperate case, a rising basketball player who was also known as "Superman" was found dead in his suite. Now we all know why this episode is called Supermen.



The victim of the first case could be made into a good example. Although he was slightly abnormal due to head trauma when he was young, he still tries to catch the bad guys. He stood up to Carter who was selling drugs. But Carter gave him a karate blow and this has cause the victim to die.



Ahhh, Lindsay and Danny worked on the second case together!(Did i mention i am a D/L shipper?) They really worked well as a team, and i loved the part where Danny said he might asked Lindsay to marry him.



Good episode overall!

Although not a Superman fan, I enjoyed all the Superman references in the episode. It was also funny how Adam reacted when the glass found on the victim tested positve for krypton.

The Danny and Lindsay moment was cute, I love seeing those two together.

The new medical examiner - Marty Pino, was it? - is really cool. I'll be adding him to my list of favourite characters.

I especially loved the last part of the episode. Shows that even normal people like you and me can be a super hero, helping those in need, whether dead or alive.

I thought that this was a really great episode, i especially liked the comment between Danny and Lindsay, when she showed that she knew something about football and Danny said that she had better be careful as he may want to marry her, I liked their little moment, (there should be more of these moments). I liked the plot line of this episode it was certainly very interesting. I also thought that the end little sequence was quite good too. All in all i thought that this was a very good episode, It had a little lighter content than some of the other episodes, and i am looking forward to the next episode.

A man pretending to be Superman is found dead inside

Of what else...a phone booth. Usually Clark Kent has to

Change in a phone booth in order to play Superman. As

One team is investigating who killed this "Superman" the other team is investigating an potential NFL star found murdered.

It proves to also show you how Clark ain't such a bad guy

That people were portraying him to be!

I liked this episode because it kept viewers interested in both cases. This episode also gave the chance for people to understand why Clark idolized Superman and show that he could do good deeds just like Superman.



This episode also shows just how far athletes will go to see in the game. The sports manager made me angry in this episode because he didn't seem to care about the health and well being of his client.



The last part of this episode was also my favorite because Mack Taylor tries to get Steve Clark's brother to understand that he didn't do anything wrong.

This concept has been done by other shows. Showing the chararters as super heros was a little cheesy. This was not a good episode overall. I'm tired of that guy calling the new girl Montana. I can't remember anyone's name except Mac and Stella. I do like the new autopsy doctor.

The two stories woven into this episode were both very good.



As usual, both murders were a puzzler - and a great mystery.



The hero plot line was really good. You did not know who the super hero was at first and the way it was shot, you had a feeling he was not a real super hero but that he was doing the best job a person could do.



The origin of the hero did not come as a total surprise. It was good they made it plausible.



The best part about the whole episode was the finale. They turned it into a great homage to the CSY: NY team. The background music and the accompanying clips from the series made it really impressive.
