Actually, I watch the show mainly because of Caruso...
I don't watch CSI: New York on Wednesday nights...I don't dislike Gary Sinise. On the other hand, I don't find him too exciting in that show.
My mom says the same thing. I think she's got a major crush on Mr. C and his amazing shades.
Different strokes and all that.
I have to admit it was the women that attracted me to CSI: Miami. Especially as compared to the original . As another poster pointed out, Catherine has her potty mouth and attitude, and Fox's character, who I suspect is supposed to be attractive, with her
self. Just doesn' do it for me. Though Grissom screwed up big time not datin' the dominatrix, who was extremely good looking. So she likes whips and chains; I'm telling you, I could adjust = P
Anyway, I liked CSI (didn't love it), so when Miami came on, figured what the heck. And the women grabbed me. The caliente latina detective from the first few seasons, Khandi Alexander, who I thought was hilarious in News Radio, now as a quirky but cute M.E., and the Drop Dead Gorgeous Emily Proctor, accent and all.
Whew.
Could never latch on to the NY version, primarily because of the washed out color scheme they used in the first season (or what I saw thereof). Yeah, I know it's a quirky thing to latch onto, but I'm a graphic designer, and when I see something like that, it'll just drive me nuts if the story or characters can't keep me hooked long enough to get past it, and NY's cast just didn't do it for me (with the exception of Sinise).
