I was so let down words can not express it! I have not been that depressed in years. The entire show was slow, boreing and an over all let down. I am a very big fan of Gary Sinise's but this is not the role for him. I do not plan on watching the show a second time. I made a point to watch this show to see if I would enjoy it as much as CSI.

I'm a fan of CSI, the original series. I don't like the Miami version and unfortunately, it seems the NY version isn't going to interest me either. And I had such high hopes thanks to Gary Sinise playing lead. I fell asleep 10 minutes into CSI NY. Glad to know I didn't miss much. Now, the original CSI, because I know the characters and like them, I keep watching. The crime solving gets tired but the characters are why I still watch. Grissom is the best by far, I think anyway. Quirks are entertaining. By the way, Globe & Mail is my fav paper so I'll have to search the archives to see your write-up. Congratulations!!! :-) Found my way here due to Wayne at Blog Business World.

It was darker and had an edge to it. You could feel the tension the characters had. I think they managed to stay true enough to the formula, working the crime scenes and gathering evidence. I felt like I had the closure from the case though. Unlike CSI, this show has more in common with Miami because they are cops too. They can always take a suspect into a room and get a confession, which seemed like exactly what happened. I can't imagine the toture these characters go through on any of these shows. The things they have to deal with. CSI sort of plays it a little on the lighter side most of the time. CSI: Miami hits home now and then with episodes like the premiere. But CSI: NY really banged out a great episode giving us a peak and the very emotional side of what they have to do. I'm sure it won't always be like this. I'm guessing next week we'll get the 2 case formula that has become standard for crime dramas and I look forward to seeing how they handle it. I hope they keep the emotional stuff but use is where it has impact. If they are always wearing them on their sleeves we won't take it very seriously. At least I won't. But all in all, I have to watch all 3 shows now. Argh! I *really* need to get a Tivo. Probably this weekend. I really liked the emotional aspect of the show too. It was darker and had an edge to it.

CSI: (I'm watching it now) is great for drama but short on the intimacy with the characters. I liked the old New York Undercover - you know, the one before the last one - because you knew the characters intimately. Their lives became your life. I get the feeling it will be that way with CSI:NY. The main guy is struggling hard to recover from his wife's death on 9-11. The main girl is struggling to recover from a relationship with one of the other casgt members. Come on! Classic Soap Opera material! :) An aspect I left out in my review was the character development. CSI: (I’m watching it now) is great for drama but short on the intimacy with the characters.
