“It’s just not a good idea to watch “CSI:Miami” with your husband.”
For one, they will probably not understand that you have to watch this show even though David Caruso has redefined ridiculous (Cause, come on! It’s CSI! Besides, where else can you find such delightfully inadvertent comedy?) and you will most likely be subjected to copious amounts of bitching, moaning, and general screaming-in-agony.
For another, I suspect that the aforementioned tantruming may stem from feeling emasculated by the intimidating lead character.
Think about it. They have to watch the amazingly humble Horatio Cane (aka “Head of the most expensively designed CSI lab in the universe that tirelessly and simultaneously fills the roles of the FBI, CIA, IRA, ATF, DCF,SWAT,Miami PD, the Mafia, Sharpshooter, Knight in Shining Armor, and Chinese Shar Pei“)!!!
Who can possibly compete with that? I mean, it isn’t every man who can wear Johnny Cash’s wardrobe in the heat and humidity of Florida week after week. I guess all that head-tilting he does is the sheer magnitude of his self-perceived awesomeness weighing it down.
How are “Ordinary Men” supposed to cope? It’s bad enough that most of them are still cowed from MacGyver’s ability to construct a nuclear warhead out of a chewing gum wrapper, paper clip and PEZ dispenser (Not to mention his killer mullet).
So, just turn the channel, ladies. If not for you, for your sweetie.
I love all the CSI’s & sadly even if my hubby wasn’t as addicted as I am we would still watch them. There’s Horatio with the sunglasses who for some reason I fancy even though I’ve never ever liked another red head ever or in Vegas there’s Grissom with his incapability to empathise or understand anyone’s feelings unless they are dead, not to mention his relationship with Sara.
I watch every episode the one other programme I watch is the delectable House but that is an entirely different naughty dream
Hugh Laurie is just dead sexy. He does a totally awesome American accent, but I love it when he’s in he native Brit even more. Sigh…
I can’t believe that I do, but I keep watching CSI:Miami. I loved Caruso in NYPD Blue, but I just cannot believe that he takes himself seriously in this role.
He is no Grissom, that is for certain!
Hey I still watch it but its more to see what the lates cheesy one liner he says after finding a body and then he puts on those rediculaus sunglasses. I would like to bust those things into a million pieces.
He has those things on so much that if you weren’t formiluar with the show you would be woundering where the hell his seeing I dog is and what is he doing in a police station.
I am so glad that David Hasselhoff has returned to TV. What was a girl supposed to do with herself since Knight Rider and Baywatch were canceled? :-)
Ugh.
And we actually have tons of relatives in Utah. It’s just we ditched the trip we had planned in June to save money for Mexico. Priorities, you know. Believe me, when we make it back there, you’ll be the third to know!
I love the original CSI, but never really got into the Miami one. (Okay, I never really gave it a chance because I feel that my life is scheduled by TV too much anyway!) But my spouse enjoys CSI too, so it’s all good!
I suspect he can also make a mean strawberry rhubarb pie.
I love when he put his hands on his hips and looks out at the horizon. So funny!
That shar pei looks like he was ironed.
Jail Bate-YAY! You found me! How on earth did you do that where you are???? I think he would be much more appropriate with a seeing-eye gerbil, don’t you?
Amber-Ah, Good Ole’ Knight Rider! I loved that show. Hmmm…we should have MacGyver and Knight Rider face off for a battle of the permed mullets.
I.Must.Meet.you!
Jill-There is no better one than Vegas. I liked Miami until they killed off Speedle and now it is just like a trainwreck that you can’t look away from.
I watch way too much TV, but almost all of it is in the middle of the night when I can’t sleep.
Karen-You.Freaking.Slay.Me. I’m glad he has something to fall back on should the “Super hero” thing not work out.
Glitters-Me, too! Seriously, the finale of this last season when he is up on a skyscraper roof for NO REASON except to just stand there with his hands on his hips while a helicopter swirls around him???
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
He is this decades answer to Captain James T. Kirk.
My hubby likes CSI – we watch Vegas and Miami. Never got into NY (is it even on still?). Problem is we haven’t even finished last season (it’s all on the DVR) because we’re too busy.
I fought Miami at first but David Caruso’s lines crack me up every. single. time.
CSI:NY is one I’m just getting into. It isn’t bad, but it isn’t as good as Vegas nor as “Super Special” as Miami. I’m kinda “Eh” about it.
Oh, those one liners KILL ME. Especially when they involve kids, “You see, I promised a young boy that I would keep a promise and lock up his mother’s murderer/rapist/burgler/pimp/crack dealer and blah,blah,blah,blah”
I’m sure Jen from “I’ll take two of those in pink” will agree as well, since she sparked the idea for this post in the first place.
You seem to have this self hosted thing together way better than I do. I’m glad we have each other to cry and cling to.
Damn that Kerflop and her tall promises of greatness. I just couldn’t resist her self hosted charm.
hey, you, uh, forgot to mention the giant hummer he drives.
yeah right.
paul always makes fun of horatio…talks in his voice n stuff. it reduces me to giggles.
Oh, my gosh. I LOVE that show and HATE it simultaneously. It’s freakin’ ridiculous. And yet I am compelled to watch it. If I have to listen to one more completely retarded cliche come out of David Caruso’s mouth, I will cut my ears off. But I’ll still have my eyes in tact so I can tune in every week.
