Rating: - The Best Show on Television
I have not seen a show this good since "The X-Files". It is becoming a definate cult hit. I don't think I've seen but maybe one episode i didn't enjoy thoroughly. How is it that it is in the middle of its third season and there haven't been plans to release even the first? The first season episodes include:Pilot Cool Change Crate 'n Burial Plegding Mr. Johnson Friends & Lovers Who Are You? Blood Drops Anonymous Unfriendly Skies Sex, Lies, and Larvae I-15 Murders Farenheit 932 Boom To Halve and to Hold Table Stakes Too Tough to Die Face Lift $35K O.B.O. Gentle, Gentle Sounds of Silence Justice is Served Evaluation Day The Strip Strangler These are all 23 episodes that would be released, i hope they release them soon.
Rating: - The best television you can find!
Finally after three years, CBS and Paramount are realeasing the complete first season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. I have been watching every episode since the first and have enjoyed almost every one! Now, with this six disc set, i can watch the first season over and over again which has some of the best classic episodes. Pilot Cool Change Crate 'n Burial Plegding Mr. Johnson Friends & Lovers Who Are You? Blood Drops Anonymous Unfriendly Skies Sex, Lies, and Larvae I-15 Murders Farenheit 932 Boom To Halve and to Hold Table Stakes Too Tough to Die Face Lift $35K O.B.O. Gentle, Gentle Sounds of Silence Justice is Served Evaluation Day The Strip Strangler These are the 23 episodes of the first season that will be included. I have taped (on VHS) every single episode since the third episode of the series, but now i can watch them with much better quality. This is by far the best show on television!
Rating: - The ratings were worse, but the stories were better
Although CSI was not the #1 hit it currently is in its first season, this season set the stage. Interesting cases, pioneering special effects that suddenly took you INSIDE a murder victim's body to examine the injuries, competent acting... these all made CSI the pop-culture phenomenon it is today.What sets this first season apart was that aside from the weekly crimes, the show actually dealt with the personal lives of the characters, and most episodes had continuing plotlines which were separate from the "crimes-of-the-night": Catherine had her child custody issues with her ex, Nick had his complicated relationship with a hooker, Sara had to deal with being the new person on the team, Warrick had his gambling problem/corrupt judge subplot, and Grissom had his romance with "face lady", his rivalry with the daytime CSI team's chief, and his professional problems with the sheriff and the mayor. Such subplots vanished in season two - Catherine suddenly appeared as if she had no family, Grissom became a complete eunuch, as did Nick, who never had another girlfriend. But the ratings improved, so I guess that's what people prefer - a more classic, completely episodic crime series without the continuing subplots that give it a soap-like quality. But for me, I miss those subplots, which is why I think this first season of CSI is a must-have on DVD. It was CSI at its best.
