Never watched that in my life.

Hmmm...I'll need to know what show you watch, so that I may reference those shows next time!

What is so fascinating about CSI?
I like law and order, cold case, house and gilmore girls.

[tollbaby]

hardly on topic, but CSI is a lot more technical in the forensics aspect of the cases they cover than Law & Order is. Law & Order is a courtroom/legwork type drama, CSI is more of a forensic pathology type drama.

Well....I'll give you "House," though I could say "What is so fascinating about Gilmore Girls?" but...

For me CSI isn't about the forensics, because 90% of them are either completely fabricated, or wildly dramatized. But the stories and the character development over the years. Vegas is the only CSI I will watch. I tried to watch Miami, but then Horatio was all hot for his adopted daughter and that ended it for me. Never tried to watch NY, even though I love Gary Sinese.

Bigger hint: *cough*Supernatural*cough*

But I haven't yet gotten hold of the second season, so don't reference that.

*cough*I don't think that plays in Canada. *cough* If it does; I haven't seen it. *cough*

*Spiffy gets a glass of water for this nasty cough he's had lately.*

This is just a guess but since Lance is in England according to the spiffy location next to his name I don't think they get CSI, at least it wasn't on international syndication last time I checked then again I could be completely ignorant since I don't watch much TV in the first place.

I used to watch CSI myself (original) until they got too sadistic to try and gain audience and then I dropped it. Plus originally I was hooked on the "science" until I caught them doing some fallacies on stuff I know about and thus lost faith in all their science.

[Lace Neil Singer]

I don't get it, cuz I don't have satelite TV and I don't really know whether it's no there or not. XD

I stand corrected. Funny how the brain does that. Up until you pointed that out I've been reading it as Lance Neil Singer...... Just one of many things that can breed an SC. However, unlike them, I know how to recognize a mistake :P

Just a note - I was watching a "making of..." on one of the CSI Dvds, and they say there that they don't do it exactly as the forensic labs do. Otherwise the common criminal could watch it and figure out ways to commit the perfect crime.
Plus, they get the crimes solved in like, a week. In real life it takes months, years for forensics to get investigated and completed.

I call "Bullshit." Who needs CSI to create a 'perfect' crime?

You've got Forensic Files, Cold Case Files, and a million other really detailed and excellent programs over on CourtTV to help with that.

I despise with a searing passion the spread of misinformation.

^-.-^

There's no such thing as a "perfect" crime. Well, unless you're OJ Simpson But seriously, it's impossible. Evidence (DNA, fibers, hair, etc.) gets left behind usually without the criminal even realizing it. Sooner or later, they will get caught.

BTW, anyone watch Body of Evidence on Court TV?

No worries. Even tho I'm not Aussie.
