Carry The One

Since I'm retiring my old blog here's the one post worth keeping:

CSI Remedial

Despite the constant ravings of people about the various CSI series', I had never actually seen an episode until the other night. There was nothing better on as I was flicking through so I decided I'd hang around and see what the hullaballo was all about.

After 5 minutes of heavy detective work I came to the conclusion that everyone in the world is retarded except me (not for the first time either).  Take this snippet from the script, for example:

Man: Looks like the shooter was holding her from behind.

Woman: But the bullet went through her which would mean....

Man: Yes, the bullet would have hit the shooter.

Woman: So we're looking for a man with a bullet wound.

Man: Yes, a bullet wound at the same height as the victim's.

Woman: I agree. The shooter would have a bullet wound at the same height as the victim's.

Man: Yes, because he was holding her from behind...

Woman: ...and the bullet went through her.

Man: Let's get back to the office.

Woman: Yes, let's go to that place where we work.

Man: Let's go there and constantly explain common forensic terms to each other.

FUCK OFF!!!!!!

I was half expecting one of them to look at me and ask if I'd gotten it yet.
Scooby Doo gave the audience more credit than this, and it's plotlines were far more believable. Folks, the emperor is not wearing any clothes!
