CSI: Vegas – Episode 9.16 – Turn, Turn, Turn
Air Date: March 5, 2009
It looks like this week, hottie Gearge Eads will be the focus of the case. I think he is terrific and look forward to him being highlighted more in this episode. It’s featuring also guest star Taylor Swift in her acting debut. She’ll play the daughter of the proprietors of a seedy motel. Apparently, the place has been the scene of three murders over a period of only a year…

And why haven’t we seen more of the new CSI Riley Adams, aka Lauren Lee Smith? She’s a terrific character and brings some really fun attitude to the show. I’ve been wondering that and now, thank goodness, TV Guide has answered the question.
Spoiler:
Why is Lauren Lee Smith getting so little face time in the latest CSI episodes? — Norman
TIM: She’ll get more, and soon. The lovely Canadian told us on the set this week that we’ll soon see why her character, Riley Adams, “seems to have a chip on her shoulder.” Apparently someone close to Riley was a victim …read more

Episode 9.15 – Kill Me If You Can
Air Date: February 26, 2009
These are always interesting episodes, when they start with what seems to be three different cases, but later realize they are all connected. As far as I can tell, no show anywhere does this as well as CSI: Vegas. The team heads to separate crime scenes and ends up having to put their heads together to solve them all. I’m really looking forward to this one.

Episode 9.14 – Miscarriage Of Justice
Air Date: February 19. 2009
Personally, I am a huge fan of Laurence Fishburne and have been for years. So it probably comes as no surprise to you that I like the fact that the Langston character is getting to be a part of every episode of CSI: Vegas these days. Fishburne is perfect for the part he’s playing and brings his own touch to the show. It looks like he’ll be pretty busy in this episode where new evidence causes the team to head back to the lab to reopen a case. I love it!

CSI: Vegas’ newest cast member, Lauren Lee Smith, who plays the feisty Riley Adams was photographed at the recent Screamfest Horror Film Festival Opening Night party held at The Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. I know that her character has received mixed reviews, but I like her.

Now that we’ve had a chance to see Lauren Lee Smith in action as CSI Riley Adams, we know that she brings a new dynamic to an already established team. She comes to the cast as a fresh face and a whole new, quirky character. Some people say that they don’t like the character, and a lot of us do. But no matter which side of the issue we fall on, I think this interview with Lauren Lee Smith might offer a bit more insight into the character and what she is intended to do as part of the show.
