electriclandWatching CSI: Miami last night I turned to Jen and said "Is it me, or is this show making even less sense than usual?"
Even for something you watch because there's nothing else on, it's failing to impress. It's like the writers and editors and people get bored with the episode halfway through and start throwing random crap in to liven it up. They're certainly not aiming for either logic or subtlety. What was with those inset close-ups? Wasn't that woman awfully fortunate to just luck into a (faked, but still) armed robbery at the same party where she planned to shoot her husband's Death Pool longshot? Was the Very Special Message really supposed to be "Gambling: It Will Ruin Your Life! Counterfeiting is bad! Oh, and women can also be bad!"? I've almost given up objecting to the long slow-motion walks on the beach and the musical montages of random lab techniques and the lighting.
Do you think Horatio Caine is going to get skin cancer any time soon?
It's probably unfair to watch it right after The Closer, a show which makes actual sense. But still.
In other TV news, why did CBC rerun the premiere of Little Mosque on the Prairie?
