If you’re still thinking about this week’s episode of CSI: Vegas, feel free to leave a comment with your opinions, comments, suggestions, etc. Here are a few points to get you started.

• Funny? I liked some of the funny dialog, but parts left me flat.
• I watched that explanation of what happened to Natasha a few times to figure out what exactly happened. I’m still not 100% satisfied with the explanation, nor with the video.
• They didn’t go back to Natasha’s death, so much, either?
• Did you watch the CSI episode of Two and a Half Men? I thought that was hysterical.

This episode of CSI: Vegas was incredible! It’s hard to beat the fun packed into this hour –or 42 minutes. Do you agree?

• Are there not enough lawsuits involving Tasers?
• Why did they change “thiocyanate” to “thiocyte”? I’m mystified by this.
• What did you think about all that green blood? Is that feasible? Did they sufficiently justify the sulfur/drug idea?
• Did you just love the way they inserted (with no explanation) Adam & Jamie from Mythbusters into the lab when they were using Mythbuster-esque test tactics? How fun was that?
• How campy was this episode? Did you love it, as I did?
• Cyanide-sniffers?
• Killer ground squirrels?
• What are your thoughts about Grissom’s explanation of how everything was connected by String Theory? Any physics professors out there? We’d love to hear your opinions!!

Episode 8.15 - The Theory of Everything
Air Date: May 1, 2008

This episode was good CSI fair, with some interesting twists, stupid suspects, and some classic smart talk –both kinds. Grissom and the team investigate a case involving a deer that has been shot with an crossbolt, potentially liquored up, and dressed up for dancing on the town.

Brass: Okay, so you got a DUI, resisting arrest, several new and unique wildlife violations. You’re in a truckload of trouble, Kyle.
Kyle: I… I… I found her like that.
Brass: In a cocktail dress?
Kyle: [laughs] I didn’t put no dress on her. I was taking her to the vet.
Brass: Sure it wasn’t a nightclub?

After Brass and Stokes question Kyle about the deer, and give him a breathalizer test, Kyle bolts out the door and down the corridor. After an officer had already sprayed Kyle –to no avail- with pepper spray, Brass, Stokes, and an officer come out of an elevator. Brass gives the order to “light him up”, and the officer shoots Kyle with his Taser. The charge, though, ignites the suspect, enveloping him in flames, and killing him.
