Dead On Arrival (CSIM April 27 2009)

(reality show contestent gets offed)

Man, it was great to have such a light-hearted episode after all the drama and angst the last few seasons! The reality show people made me laugh, especially the host. Valera and Natalie had some good air time, Horatio got to be protective of yet another vulnerable young woman (love the guy, but he could really use a few sessions with a good shrink), and the E/C scene was low key and kind of sweet.

Would have been nice to have more pithy Frankisms (there was certainly plenty of fodder for him to get pithy about!), and a Stetler-trying-to-play-nice-with-Horatio scene would have been welcome (no fireworks between them, this episode was too silly for that), but you can't have everything.

Yeah I thought it was a very good episode too!!

My nice long post copy and pasted as usual. (I always wonder when I say that, is pasted a word?)

I liked the episode. I loved how Natalia was going on about the show when her and Eric were in the limo together. He was just sorta like uh huuuh...

I thought for sure it was going to be the host... not one of the contestants. I'm just glad it wasn't the bachelor, I liked him. Hehehe.

Calleigh being distracted by some guy... Aaw that was a cute scene.

LOVED Valera and Ryan's scene (and usually I could care less). I thought it was funny when he told her about old books, the look on her face. xD

Whoa now, Kyle saw Tara popping a pill! I agree with kljmiami, I could totally see him working out the whole thing with her blaming his mom in his head. I wish Kyle was a tattle tale.

I liked the scene in interrogation with Ryan, Horatio and that bald scary guy (no not Frank). The ending was good too, I thought for just a second that Ryan was going to go off and shoot the guy! He just looked like he reaaally wanted to. And, I am a sucker for hero Horatio. NOT Super H, but the H that saves the damsel in distress. It makes me happy, and you can just tell he cares. ^_^ ... Maybe I just love H... period.

We need more Natalia! I never really liked Nat, but I love Eva! So I'm warming up to Natalia a bit more, we just need her more often.

*snorted at Luf's "bald scary guy (no not Frank)"*

Oh, Ryan's never going to get a girl that way! It was nice to see Maxine again though.

THANK GOD, we finally got to see Natalia! She's been missing for awhile.

The Eric and Cal part was adorable =)

And it was also nice to see H playing the savior of the damsel in distress again!
