CSI Fan From Across the Pond Admits Addiction
Vicky Frost, a writer at the Gaurdian Unlimited admits she’s addicted to CSI. Which I guess seems pretty odd to people over there.
Not that I normally bandy this kind of information about. Having a CSI obsession is not, after all, the same as being really into, say, Life on Mars or Heroes. It’s like getting really, really into a souped-up version of The Bill, with additional spraying and cotton buds. But it’s the small things that count: Sunhill’s finest never stride around sending things to “Trace”, or reach for the UV light or, even better, the Z-nose. Even the fact that all three CSI series rely on exactly the same formula - enigmatic guy leading the lab, beautiful but formidable woman second-in-command, young and gorgeous CSIs bringing up the rear, and cynical male detective on the side - is not enough to break its spell. Not even David Caruso’s. Quite. Ridiculous. Speech patterns. Can detract from its faux-scientific appeal.
Glad to see the fanatic trend is spreading far and wide across the globe. She even shares my opinions of David Caruso’s Horatio.
The challenge though is that she mentioned another show and barely said anything about it, but it piqued my interest in seeing it. Something called Spooks about a British spy in Prada? After jumping with her link to the Wikipedia entry about the show, it says that our own “House, M.D.”, Hugh Laurie makes appearances as well. What could be better!
