I sincerely hope you are yanking my chain. I love this show as it is an amusing CSI. Hodges almost has me convinced he is a scientist although I would like to know what idiot equipped their lab. It has the cheapest POS eppendorf pipettors and crappiest microscopes I have ever seen. No self respecting competant investigator would use that crap.
They spent all the lab's money on multistory vaulted ceilings and lots and lots of glass.
Of course that hits my same pet peeve that the glass walled offices and conference room of super secret organizations like in 24. Has no one in Hollywood had the dreariness of sitting all day in a concrete block vault where you have to call to someone on the outside to have them describe the “sun” to you, which seems to be a giant fluorescent bulb in the sky.
