CSI: Miami

CSI, CSI-New York have two teams and solve two crimes per episode. Then there's Miami... David Caruso and company take so long to deliver cliché's that they can only manage to solve one crime per week. Cally, Wolf and Eric are cool...Alex is too empathetic to each one of her stiffs to process no more than one per show. And to have Horatio have to tell her to get the fingernail scrapings to DNA testing is utterly ridiculous.. duh....thank you Horatio we thought she just might not do that. Uh...nothing worse than an ugly red head unless he's an ugly redhead named David Caruso who uh...thinks he's uh...sexy...and ...uh...cool. First time I saw him was in RAMBO. Never imagined him to be able to carry out leading man status. Now when CBS combines Miami and New York and mention HERO's. UH! I tried to count his lines last night when I got so tired of watching him tilt is head stare at the stiff or suspect and make his usual uh PROFOUND observation that I gave up. SLOW SLOW and did I mention SLOW. I was so hoping Horatio would get nailed and sorry folks...die. Happy to see Wolf walked out of the hospital. Now that is heroic. As for the supporting cast....stop with the back story of Eric having a pot problem. Girl problem yes...pot no...if he smokes it Cally would smell it on him immediately. That won't work....Get Cally a love interest. female or male I don't care. She just needs someone at home to be nurturing to. Get her two cats. Show us some humanity. One Crime a Week. Speed up the dialog ( I tried to spell it dialogue but this site told me I spelled it incorrectly..my sincere apologies) ....cram in another murder hire another actor to flesh out the teams and make this a decent show...or..cancel it and put the money towards the other CSI shows getting Hummers to ride around in. David Caruso is the most uh...uh...uh...unappealing character on TV. Jason Lee's EARL has more appeal. ...Two crimes a week...that what those of us with ADD need. Not just one thing to focus on. Did I ever actually mention that my wife and I hate...hate David Caruso? Well we do. He's no HERO!

We had the first episode of Series 8 here in UK last night: "Out of time". Out of time indeed! Flashback to 1997 (looked more like 1967) when Forensics were still in the Stone Age.

David Caruso's make-up resembled (and possibly was) Polyfilla; and they must have paid nearly $6 for that ginger rug he was wearing! Something weird done to Delko's hair as well - the result looked like a jumbo-sized Brillo pad (is that what Latinos were sporting in '97?)

The Miami team is noted more for striking poses than for its thespian and investigative skills, but this was like a parody of a parody. Aka a travesty. Really only the New York series still has any 'edge'; Vegas and Miami are running out of steam and maybe need to join Dallas and Dynasty in the TV graveyard.

plus the stupidly hammy Alex's Mommy complex re her corpses...

all the comments above sum up my own disgust with Caruso... does he own the show, or what?... i can't believe someone that awful can continue to be paid for nauseating the viewers, unless he does... or maybe has some really juicy blackmail material to hold over the heads of the producers...

and what's with the trailer showing the best of all the cast members, Kally (sp?) getting killed off, when we're all pulling for Caruso to get the ax?... or did she get as sick of Caruso's idiotic posturing as we are and opt out?...

I liked all the detectives on that show. They sharp, confident and had a passion to get the criminal. The criminals were great too. Good directing is what kept it going for so long and a good run. Why another of Jerry Bruckheimer's classics was cancelled I just don't get it.

As a longtime CSI LV fan it is so upsetting to see how the terrible acting of David Caruso makes CSI Miami unbearable to watch. The overacting in each episode is painful including the repetitive head tilt, glasses on and glasses off and hands on hips. Every show I have tried to watch it is always the same. Hummers only for the CSI team (not for the police), Kaine shooting guns with glasses on all while wearing dark clothes in Miami heat. All are totally ridiculous. The most irritating of all of Caruso's acting quirks is the fact then when people are talking to him he never looks them in the eye and each scene his is in usually ends with a rhetorical question. It makes a serious show comical and campy. There are other cast members that can carry part of the show but Caruso really needs to have fewer lines and less airtime!
