New York, New York

I love AXN for showing all 3 CSI series, and for rescuing what used to be blah TV Tuesdays with CSI NY. Of the 3, Vegas is still my favorite because of the more interesting and complex characters, especially Grissom, and Greg cracks me up. Plus, that cute AV tech guy Archie (played by an actor named Archie Kao) occasionally appears. :D Miami's cast isn't as compelling, especially David Caruso, but I appreciate that his Horatio is more human than William Petersen's Grissom.

As for NY, it's too early to judge Gary Sinise's Mac just yet, but I do find the series to have the best production design. Whereas Vegas is bright desert sun and dazzling Strip neon, and Miami is orange sunsets and bronze beaches, NY is pale stone and gray Goth. It's nice to see a darker, colder Big Apple, starkly different from Donald Trump's glitzy metropolis, or NYPD's mean-streets 'hood, or Friends' cozy-cafe Village. Even the CSI lab was made to distinctly fit the whole ghostly atmosphere. I hope the episodes will be as good to watch as the sets are as nice to see.

Hey Ailee, thanks for the invite to check out your blog. I do miss hearing your thoughts and opinions (with Raqs objecting or agreeing of course) on the most intellectual (atheism) and silliest (B-rok of Backstreet haha) of topics.

Same here, I'm addicted to CSI Vegas, but unfortunately, bwisit ang destiny cuz we don't have axn. I only get to watch on dvds.

Funniest thing, because idol ni Kim si Archie haha! I guess you two have the same taste in men. =P
