"CSI Miami"

Fuck you, OP

Horatio Caine is no Olivia Benson!

[quote] There is no eye candy... Fuck you, OP

I binged four seasons thru the week and he never as much took off his shirt. There was a scene where he was shot and his shirt was opened and that was it.

Of course he was shot and had to to be de-fibbed three times but back to work the next day.

Every episode has beautiful men in it!

Every episode has sexy males as guest stars.

Let's not forget the gorgeous Jonathan ToGo!

Caruso's Horatio kills multiple people a week.

Togo is a six on his best day.

Plus, it has the worst actress in the entire history of television as a mass medium: Emily Procter.

Ahhh she ain't so bad. It's funny how when Eva LaRue came on they gave her all the lab shots while Proctor just stood around the crime scene looking good. Lots of putting the tip of a Q tip in a test tube and adding a liquid and then bringing it over to the centrifuge. At least one scene a show.

Only thing I remember was Elizabeth Berkeley plays his ex for a few episodes and the acting in those scenes is so over the top and cringe lmao

Emily Procter and Eva LaRue: the double whammy of cringeworthy awfulness. And, as a bonus, you get Caruso removing his sunglasses.

If dreamboat Jonathan Togo is a six, R8 must be a 14, right?

Solid TEN!!!

I enjoyed this shit show years ago and I honestly don’t know why.

Exactly R17!

Pretty much all the procedural shows are garbage but the CSIs were the absolute worst. So ridiculous that nude scenes are verboten but CBS could show vulgar, grotesque filth like CSI weekly for years.

It was a "blue sky" procedural with beautiful/glamorous locations, and the cases themselves were watchable. Acting, on the other hand...

The most obnoxious theme song that blasts louder than the show, I had to mute it every episode.

I used to love CSI. Miami was a mess. Never watched NY.

Laughed every tine the team worked hours and were stumped and Hopratio would walk in, hear everything and say..."what's that?"...and solve it.

The beautiful Michael B. Silver played a recurring character.

Silver Daddy, Michael B. Silver!

How about how they would have four pixel photo and they make a few clicks and miraculously the whole license plate comes into crystal clear view.

And I don't know how they got away with this for ten seasons but EVERY episode the killer confesses in the interrogation room and tells the whole murder story. Just saw one this week where a nanny was killed in the morning and they had three different confessions for various crimes by the afternoon., all in the interrogation room.

TV show for old people.

The eye candy aspect of CSI: Horatio came from watching how everyone in town wore the same color clothing in each episode. In one episode, everyone in Miami dressed in similar shades of Blue. The next episode took place on Purple Day. The next on Green. And so on.

Emily Proctor was sleeping with the show’s producer. Married producer; she got spermpoisoned. Can’t remember if they were going to get married...and someone here posted on an old thread ages ago that Togo was bisexual. No proof was given though.

As a Paleo-Gay, I am pissed that ION has replaced Blue Bloods with this show. At least original Law and Order has the Wednesday time slot.

I’ve never watched Blue Bloods

I wish I could say that. Then I could bingewatch them on CBS All Access. Can't live without Will Estes (on the vaguely weekly format network TV now provides).

I don’t watch MAGAts like Donnie Wahlberg and Tom Selleck.

The Miami seasons where Togo is fat are sad. What happened to him? I thought cocaine made you slim.

Plus, there are lots of photos of him smoking cigarettes which are another device for thinness.

CSI-M has the most stylish lab -- lots of mood lighting, space, designer cabinets. I referred to the show as Beautiful People Solving Crimes (but somehow keeping their makeup and nails flawless)

Now Will Estes is a 10.

Will Estes is Fight Club pretty.

When the first CSI started (Las Vegas) it was very entertaining, like a murder mystery novel with plot twist, but then everything went downhill and Miami was so over the top.

I remember a scene where Horatio was driving a car that has a bomb, he parked the car, star walking slowly, put his sunglasses and the car exploded. Was so over the top ridiculous that i found it even funny

r36, does "Fight Club pretty" mean you'll punch r35's lights out so you can be first to suck Will Estes' dick?

Jonathan Togo got a little chubby the same time Eddie Cibrian started. I always wondered if the producers made him gain weight so Eddie wouldn't have any "eye candy" competition on the show.

BWAHAHAHAHAHA, r39! In what universe does Jonathan fucking Togo draw ANY attention from Eddie Cibrian?! You must be Jonathan trying to justify your weight gain.

You're all tacky and I hate you.

In my universe, r40. Jonathan > Dimples all day, every day, back in the day.

And I am not r39, you excrescent motherfucking BWAHAHAHAHAHA troll.

Jonathan Togo loves his beer!

Very hot with Jonathan Togo playing around with a friend...

Cibrian didn't click and was let go after one season.

R47 But that doesn't change the fact that he was the hottest guy on the show by far

Togo and the Mexican were much hotter than LeAnn's husband.

I loathed this show and couldn't understand why anyone with two or more brain cells would watch this heinous shit.

Has CBS produced one quality show? Ever? Their long running shoes all seem atrocious even by network TV standards.

R51 The heyday of CBS shows was in the 70s, and a few comedies in the 80s and early 90s, CBS has been utter shit since circa 1995 which is around the time Moonves put his hooves into CBS.

And everyone on this show had a great wardrobe and their police station was this big, gorgeous building with giant glass windows. Please, like a bunch of police detectives could afford to dress this way. Pure fantasy, but I get the hate watching of it. Howdy Doody aka David Caruso saying some dumb line at the beginning right before the Who song starts playing is hilarious.

R41 = Jonathan

R49: No, they are not. Both are goodlooking but not better looking than LeAnn's husband, when LeAnn decides to stole a husband she knows what she is doing

Eddie Cibrian allegedly had a diva attitude when he was hired; as if he were doing CSI producers a favor by being on the show.

It wasn’t canceled so long ago but it has aged poorly.

Jonathan Togo hasn't worked since 2018's 'Christmas Cupid's Arrow' Hallmark movie.

He looks fantastic in it but is not convincing as a heterosexual (condolences to his wife/baby mama/whatever).

They put the entire movie in a 2-minute trailer. It ends with a dry, passionless kiss at a Xmas party.

I guess Jonathan made enough CSI Money that he doesn't have to work much, because he is so beautiful, he would surely be in demand.

Oops! It was an ION Christmas Movie, not Hallmark!

Elisabeth Harnois did a CSI Miami episode and later was a regular on the original CSI (Vegas), r58.

As the same character?

Jesus, r57, I've seen youtube videos with bigger budgets

Doesn't appear so, r60.

I would blow Adam Rodriguez and Jonathan Togo until the tide came in. Both are very sexy. I would have a hard time choosing who to blow first.

Funny you should mention a tide, R63, since Johnathan Togo was in a 2015 movie called 'A Rising Tide.'

He was also arrested for domestic violence a few years ago....then he got divorced.

He’s available????!!!

Its one of those shows you can watch while doing something else . You dont really mind if you miss a scene or two ,and once its over you never think about it again . I did love the clothes and the scenery .

The show was super popular in France of all places.

All the CSIs stunk but CSI Miami had the worst acting, most notably from Emily Procter and Adam Rodriguez. The original had one decent actor, William Peterson. Marg Helgenberg was terrible as the smirking ex stripper.

Adam Rodriguez is not that good but he's a regular Daniel Day Lewis compared to David Caruso.

Don't you think Caruso knew how ridiculous the show was and was purposely playing it over the top bad?

Weren't there rumors of Caruso being a major diva? I can't recall the details as it was about a decade ago.

I tried to watch a few episodes. I just couldn't get into it. CSI Las Vegas is still my favorite.

Emily Proctor always had that same Klonopin glaze to her voice.

“Ryan, come look at this...”

What show had that blonde woman with the flippy bob hairstyle? MAD TV used to make fun of her eyes which were different sizes or something. It was CBS, too.

R75 Might it have been Cold Case? Mad TV did a hilarious parody of them, but they mocked her messed up hair, not her eyes .

You’re right! They made fun of Shannen Doherty’s eyes.

Khandi Alexander quits the show. Her replacement shows next episode says hello and is promptly shot in the head. It was actually hilarious.

The eye candy were the guest stars mostly, every c-list hottie actor was guess actor in CSI Miami, some of them become famous with time, like Channing Tatum, Chris Pine, Idris Elba, Ian Somerhalder, Jon Hamm, etc

R68 Last week, I happened to be at France's TF1 channel, and the show is still being played there: "Les Experts: MIami"

You can watch it as camp since, as someone stated before, it's very over the top. I also like to think it's set in the not too distant future because of all the high-tech lab equipment.

It's fascinating to watch from beginning to end to see how much Emily fucked up her face. Each season she seemed to get more fillers.

And it's funny to think this was Caruso's "comeback" after quitting NYPD Blue for a failed film career.

(R79) Most of those actors deserve to still be C-.

Pine was a baby.

I watched the show for a while but became turned off by the lack of credibility. The scene I remember most was one of the female leads arriving at a crime scene on the shore, and staggering over huge boulders in her four-inch heels. Didn't she have a change of shoes somewhere?

Loved how Alex would talk to the dead bodies...”oh, Chile, poor baby, how’d you end up with a bullet in your head?”.

In her designer suit, stiletto heels and claw-like nails.

And she always had to remind Horatio to put on the gloves 🧤.

“Horatio, FIND THIS ONE”.

Dr. Warner would say something similar on LAW & ORDER: SVU.

There's quite a few parodies on youtube.

It's just like real life!

I hated Detective Tripp...he was a supreme asshole. I used to pray that they killed his character off.

David Caruso can laugh...who knew?

All the CSI shows were great, but Miami was by far the best!

Some of Jonathan Togo's fat period is covered in this frau-made video.

There are a TON of "SEXY RYAN" videos on YouTube made by Fraus!

The only good thing about this show was the cinematography-photography.

R89 was fucking hilarious.

R89 was fucking hilarious.

Thankfully, Caruso never took his shirt off. He did once in that awful movie he made and his orange body hair was revolting.

R98 As I recall, Caruso had both his shirt and pants off in NYPD Blue. The butt shot was like a right of passage on that series.

Mad TV parodied the original CSI and it was hilarious.

Every episode....

Horatio: "Where were you last night?

Suspect: "I was at _________________, you can check.

Horatio : "Oh I will"

How did Adam Rodriguez get an "And Adam Rodriguez" credit in the ninth season?

more glamorized cops,

Wow watching season nine, Togo is practically anorexic. Way too skinny and Emily is ten moths pregnant and they are trying to hide it TRYING.

Las Vegas had William Petersen and his big dick energy and decent acting chops as someone above said. And the gruff, deadpan detective Paul Guilfoyle was an even better actor. The young twinks were pretty in their early 30s. Do people remember the DL heyday of George Eads?

[quote]Las Vegas had William Petersen and his big dick energy

Big dick energy? Guess you've never seen "To Live And Die In L.A.".

Are you a "submissive" or a "dominant", OP?

I did not watch it too often, but when I did, I was under the impression that they knew how over-the-top bad it was and went with it.

Sounds like Eva LaRue was not robbed of any Emmys. I actually thought she showed some acting chops on All My Children, although it could be that her wheelhouse was better designed for the melodrama of lost babies and romantic strife. I am not sure I saw a CSI episode where she given anything to do other than lab work.

CSI Vegas was actually considered a fresh take on the genre and decent quality when it first came out. It is harder to remember that now with all of the copycat shows that came out including other shows in the franchise and the mothership show itself declining in quality over the years. And yes, early season George was not too bad.

Dads has a handsome face,but no body whatsoever.

Season 10 opener, Horatio is shot but manages to dive into the ocean and save Eva LaRue from a submerged car trunk. I was so worried we were going to lose both Horatio and Natalia!
