I am bummed

I continue to be bummed over the change in characters in the show. It is just not the same. The love/tension thing is gone and the show that turned into something akin to a flat tire. I don't look for it anymore on that one night a week. I know the background of what happened to the actors, but couldn't they have found something with a bit more zip instead of the lackluster people that are in there now? The reruns of the old show are about the only ones I watch and I have watched them I don't know how many times. Now I am watching NCIS - that seems to have a good story line, but still won't be even close to the original CSI. :(

I guess that since Grissom had left CSI became more focused on the cases and Langston's backstory. Since Langston's backstory is more inclined in angst and suspense (I'm treading here), It lacks the usual antidote of romance (provided by Grissom and Sara) to create a balance in the episode/season/series.

I lost interest in the show when they killed off Warrick Brown and then when Grissom left, that was the end of it for me. I watch the reruns all the time but I don't care about watching the new shows. They ruined it as far as I am concerned.

I agree. The newer episodes seem slower and the storylines aren't as interesting as they used to be in the past. I find myself switching channels a lot with these newer episodes. Something needs to change, and I don't think it's adding or taking away characters: I think it needs a better script.
