CatStarESP4's take on tonight episode and related matters!

Tonight was the third full episode without Speed. I still miss him a lot and it's just not the same without him. Who is Delko going to exchange verbal wits with? I can take comfort that the new guy was there for a few minutes and didn't say much. Still he made me feel uncomfortable (eerie).

A&E started airing the first season of CSI: Miami this past Sunday. I had a moment of silence for Speed in the first commercial break and ate some cake while watching the show.

This past Friday on Spike, they showed the episode of CSI Las Vegas/Original that also served as the pilot for CSI: Miami. It was a treat since the debates were driving me bananas.

Can anyone re-cap the last half-hour of last night (10-11)'s show? I fell asleep and missed it!

Thanks!

Jess_Pom, I have seen the episode from start to finish. However, I don't know where to start with explaining the second half of it. I will give you a link to the entire synopsis and analysis of the episode. I hope this helps! CSI: Miami Episode!

I missed the October 18's episode because I was in DC with my cousin. However, I did see October 25's episode. I still can't stand the new guy and despite what he said about not replacing Speed, I still miss him (Speed, that is). It still isn't the same without him.

I have to honestly say that I've stopped watching the show. I only watched it sporadically in seasons one and two (although I bought season 1 on DVD and have now watched it all), but the show just doesn't seem the same without Speed there.

I'm still mad at them (the writers) for killing him off. I get that the actor wanted out of his 6 year contract but why kill him? They could have easily just written him off and then if for some reason the actor decided to come back, oh look he can. Ugh writers sometimes.

are you serious?!?! I know it sucks that he's gone-but no reason to not show our support. It seems like they've been much more creative with the storylines recently-who would've thunk about the face print on glass and how many inches a knife went in a mom's body to determine it was the daughter. You may have missed the most recent epi-but it's been really good recently imo...

Yeah I am serious.

I was NEVER a big CSI-Miami fan in the first place. I didn't recently get into the show until now.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but I don't feel it's anyone's say to tell me that I'm supposed to continue watching a show that I was really never into in the first place.

Plus, some characters just sometimes make a show and there is a chemistry. When someone leaves the chemistry gets out of whack. Sometimes the producers can hire someone who can get that chemistry back, IMPO most of the time they can't. From the groups I belong too I haven't heard much great stuff about the new character they added to replace Speed.

They had just shown the Lost Son episode again, the one that we lost our poor Speed. I didn't want to see it again at first, but I did. I am still upset that they killed him off. I miss him terribly!

Yeah I can't believe that they were already running reruns from this season.

I just saw the latest Post-Speed episode. I lost track on how many Speed-less episodes, but I still miss him a lot and it's not the same without him. I still find the (not-so) new guy annoying and he can never replace Speed.

The episode itself was interesting and complex. It was a 90 minutes long, it was that intense.

I can't stand that IAB guy Stetler. He is a major jerk! I wouldn't be surprised if he actually hit Yelena. However, I liked how Horatio dealt with Stetler.

If you guys hear when they are running re runs, please let me know. I'm dying to see this ep, but I don't have a TV, and most people here aren't into CSI Miami. I'm really not either, I just want to see that ep. I'm hoping for re runs during Christmas Break!

Last night, I saw the latest Speed-less episode. I still miss him terribly and it's not the same without him. I didn't see the first 5 minutes of the show because I fell asleep in the middle of Two and a Half Men. I woke up and it was 5 minutes after the hour. The episode was interesting, but it had a gross moment or two.

I have a link to an interview Jonathon Togo (Ryan Wolfe) gave. I still don't like his character, but it did open my eyes slightly and I kinda warmed up to him (not much though, I still miss Rory Cochrane's presence on the show).
Here is the interview to check out!

Tonight was yet another Speed-less episode. The show is still not the same without him. I still miss him terribly.

The episode overall was good and somewhat intense.

This past Friday, CBS aired an episode of CSI: Miami from the second season (Speed was there). I taped it so I could watch it whenever I wanted.

Monday was yet another Speed-less episode. Yes, I still miss him a lot and the show isn't the same without him.

It seems Delko has taken over Speed's spot as the somewhat older and wiser CSI now with Wolfe as the young naive one. Horatio was accused of police brutality which was not true. That jerk Stetler ordered Horatio to seek counseling to help him (Horatio) deal with Speed's death. Stetler should seek counseling himself after he hit Yelena. Speaking of Horatio, it seems he is suffering from survivor's guilt over that day we lost our poor Speed. Also, Horatio could potentially be involved in a romance.

My mom and I saw CSI: Las Vegas this past Thursday with that moron Ecklie (sp?). Days later, we see Stetler in CSI: Miami. My appalled mother said to me, "What another stupid idiot!".

The guy who accused him of police brutality is a good friend of mine.
