Sep 2 - Zuiker 'Tiptoes' Away From 'CSI' The 'CSI' creator gives new projects his attention but keeps an eye on the franchise. Contains minor spoilers.
I was in New York this week visiting family, and walking around the city aimlessly to see if I could run into Lisa Edelstein (girlcrush, remember?), but only managed to run into John Leguizamo running on his bike with his little daughter. Aw.
New Yorkers are the most amusing people on the planet. My favorite thing to do is get on the subway and act like a total whacko to see how many people turn around. Zero people do. It's pretty much the only place on earth where you can take your clothes off and recite Shakespeare while juggling three staplers and absolutely no one will care. Of course, why would you want to... well, if you were a New Yorker, you would, I guess. Indifferent nudity is what makes the city great. Ask the Naked Cowboy.
John Leguizamo, by the way? One foot tall.

This Week On TV
Tonight at 10:00pm, CSI: Miami's new episode "Rampage" will air on CBS. Here's how the network described it:
"Just as Horatio and Marisol begin their new life together as husband and wife, Mal Noche gang trial is disrupted when a witness helps the defendant escape during his own testimony. Now free and running from the law, the criminal orders Horatio's death -- but ends up shooting someone very close to Horatio instead. Meanwhile, a jilted lover from Delko's past reeks havoc with anyone woman close to him."
On Wednesday night at 10pm, CBS will air the CSI: New York season finale episode "Charge Of This Post." Here's a brief synopsis:
"In a race against the clock, the team works with local agencies and government authorities to locate the bomber and narrow down the next trigger among the city's six million cell phones before he strikes again. Meanwhile, as Mac investigates a routine crime scene, he stumbles upon a bag containing C-4 explosives and is unable to evacuate the building quickly enough to get his team out of harms' way. While a CSI is rushed to surgery, Mac struggles with the memories of the last person he was unable to save, a fellow Marine killed during the 1983 Beirut barracks bombing."
And CSI ends the season with a bang on Thursday with the episode "Way To Go." Here's a brief synopsis:
"In the wake of the shooting, a CSI team member faces a tough decision by holding the person's power of attorney. Meanwhile, when evidence suggests that a small-waisted man who was decapitated by a train was really a cover up for murder, the CSIs investigate the man's bizarre lifestyle of routinely wearing corsets."
In addition to the above episodes on CBS, cable channel SpikeTV will of course continue its daily CSI repeats.
