More TV crack

[mousme]

tcaptain lent me the first two seasons of CSI. I am four episodes in, and I think I have a tiny crush on Grissom. I love a man who can be smug about entomology.

Heh.

:::ETA:::

I'm also very much enjoying the various tensions, interpersonal conflicts and external conflicts. In CSI: Miami they try very hard to do it, but basically everyone gets along with everyone on that show, and so there's very little dramatic tension for the discerning viewer.

OZ has raised my threshold for what constitutes interpersonal conflict on a show considerably.

Trust me, until Grissom shanks somebody in the showers for control of the drug trade, it is all sweetness and light.

Enh. Violence to me doesn't necessarily imply that the interpersonal tension is good. Take Deadwood, for example: horrifically violent, but the best tension happens between characters who never raise a hand against each other.

Verbal tension=gooood, very, very good.
