CSI Crossover Fail

Last night, we watched the three CSI episodes from this week, from Miami to New York to Las Vegas. We watch the Vegas show regularly and don't watch any of the others. This seemed like a good idea - a theme that ran across all three shows, mingling the cast, etc.

Wow, what a fail.

First, CSI Miami is not just sort of bad, it's truly awful - and it's barely David Caruso's fault. Just horrible writing, acting and the tone is super cheesy and fake. There's also a pony-tailed guy with a super computer and screens that don't really exist - for no good reason.

CSI NY is better, but largely by comparison. And even the Vegas show was tenuous and exposed the preposterous parts of that show that are generally left alone.

Total fail. Also, what happened to Emily Procter's face? I miss Ainsley Hayes.
