I discovered something "odd": when I first watched The Hunger Artist episode a few months back, it ended with the revelation of Gil's impending deafness and his pondering in the street. However, when I watched the same episode from another source, the scene I described above was there but it wasn't the ending: it was Gil in a doctor's office. Now did I miss anything the first time around or was it edited by AXN?

Grissom in the doctor's office took place BEFORE the street scene in the version I originally saw on AXN.

For some reason, sometimes "cliffhanger endings" are edited when shows air as reruns or in foreign markets. I remember during the era of the nighttime soaps, DALLAS on video (taped from CBS in the States) ended one season with Bobby Ewing dying in a hospital bed... one scene after a car crash. I was surprised that when the episode aired on RPN 9, the season ended with just the car crash - no final death scene with the family gathered around the bed.

Ey thanks, Mr Hankey!

One thing that bugs me now is: I just saw the first three episodes of season 1 a few days ago and I'm surprised at Gil Grissom's attitude - he's jolly! I mean, he shouted an expletive at a corpse in the pilot (as a joke to the ill-fated Holly Gribbs) and he cracked a mischievous smile in the third episode (when he showed Catherine his gift to her daughter) - a very very very far cry from the serious, grim and sage-like Grissom I have come to know when I came aboard mid-season 1. Why the attitude adjustment? Or am I a few episodes away from his rude awakening?

Oh and they had a different opening credits song pala. I like the Who's Who Are You pa rin but the original song's not bad.

I think they just made him a dead-serious eunuch after he fails miserably when he tries to court face lady.

NO, they didn't. Who Are You has always been the theme song of this show in broadcast television versions of it. What you're hearing is just the fake theme song used for the UK and Canadian DVD releases of CSI, since The Who was asking for a bit too much in royalties for use of the song for those DVDs. I think they ironed it out for the upcoming US Season One boxed set, though.

Ah okay - thanks again

Can't wait for the DVD set though - it's coming out next month right?

Season Three na? Cool!

No announcement for CSI: Miami? If not, then I think my prediction was right, and it's the show they'll use to alternate with CSI when it goes off season.

The third season premiere is on February, though I don't know what exact date.

I saw the first eleven episodes of the third season - a mix of highs and lows but this time, the intrigue and suspense is heightened with Grissom's impending deafness. Don't miss the second episode for the seriousness of his new predicament.

Mr. Hankey · « **Reply #70 on:** Jan 27, 2003 at 03:47 PM »

The third season debut is on Wednesday, February 19th, 9PM.

Surprisingly, it'll be the only NEW show/season on AXN on the weekdays-at-9PM slot. The rest of the scheduled shows are old: Pacific Blue, Sheena, The Best of Outer Limits, etc.

thanks for the heads up. Gumby's right, the second episode is a cool one 'cause the distinctive flaw/backstory of each character is highlighted in that episode. you'll end up cheering them on.

Mr. Hankey · « **Reply #73 on:** Feb 17, 2003 at 12:43 AM »

Heads up again, guys!

The premiere of Season Three of C.S.I. on AXN is this Wednesday at 9PM already.

To get in the mood, take this quiz if you haven't.

I took it again... nice to see I'm consistent:

Mr. Hankey · « **Reply #74 on:** Feb 19, 2003 at 10:18 PM »

Was it just me, or was that a very unsatisfying season premiere? The resolutions to both cases left me... unimpressed.

Anyway, for those who want to catch it, the rerun is at 1:00AM later.

It was ok by me. I liked that the characters seem looser and more comfortable. For example, last season i dont think i can recall Greg openly flirting with Sara like that. its a good change IMO. Plus the new guys, specially pathologist no.2 show promise.

Besides, its not how you start, its how you finish.

- Confident at work but self-conscious outside your job, you've always tried to connect with others while wondering why they can't connect with you. While you can lay a smackdown with the best of them, you also possess an empathetic streak that is both a strength and a weakness in your line of work. Despite your nonchalance regarding your own appearance, your brain and inner beauty seems to attract the opposite sex in droves. You tend to be goal oriented and focused on details--both of which seems to manifest in both your personal and professional lives. Quick with a comeback, your sense of humor is both an asset and a weapon. You are Sara Sidle.

- sounds like me

Introspective, studious, and an observer, you exude intelligence from your every pore. People always come to you when they need answers. A natural teacher, you enjoy enlightening others without ever descending into arrogance. Knowing others without ever having them fully know you, you always keep people guessing. However, you're honest almost to a fault, letting people know exactly where they stand in your world. You'd rather spend time with your books and individual pursuits than with acquaintances. You wouldn't be considered outgoing, but once someone earns your trust, they've also earned acceptance. Your physical appearance doesn't seem to be a priority, but it does reflect your overall propensity for neatness. In the relationship arena you tend to tread very carefully; you weigh every decision, since allowing someone inside your ordered life puts that same order as risk. That said, when you speak, people listen. Quick with a compliment when one is deserved, the inherent truth in your words go a long way to put others at ease. Your nature is a mercurial one - you can be both charming and 'confusing', sometimes in the same moment. Intellectual, inexplicable, and irresistible-- you are Gil Grissom.

This is me exactly, but I always thought I was more like Greg personality wise, Grissom is too serious to be me.

Last night, premier episode Season 3, Nick and Katherine, drove those cars with those nitro boosters (?) to test something. Was that realistic? Do CSI's really have to do that? Or was it just for the "Fast and the Furious" feel for the show?

Medyo off-topic but has anyone played the new CSI PC game? Been reading some good reviews about it and I'm quite interested.

Available na kaya sa Data Blitz yun? I passed it over for DVDs when I saw it sa US eh.
