Hello World!
Not looking forward to watching CSI: Miami tonight, in fact, I think I'm gonna sleep through it altogether. I would really love for the writers of this show to realize not all Hispanic people are promiscuous and unreliable. I can't understand why the Latino characters are horn dogs who will have sex with anything that moves, and yet the white characters are all virtuous and pure. I'm Hispanic, and watching this show every week is like being slapped in the face over and over again. The Latino character is unreliable, stupid, naïve, irresponsible and only thinks with his genitals. The white characters will roll their eyes and complain about the Latino character and continue on their perfect little moral paths.
I thought with the addition of another Hispanic character things would change, but the only thing the Miami writers have accomplished with the addition of Natalia Boa Vista is to reinforce their twisted view that all Latinos are horn dogs, and they'll sleep with people they barely know. Next thing you know Delko will get Natalia pregnant, because we're all careless like that, and he'll be an irresponsible father like all Latino fathers are, right Miami?
So this is it for me and CSI: Miami for a while. I can't continue to watch a show that shows little respect for my culture. Belive me, it sucks, because I like the show, but hey, I have principles (yes, CSI: Miami, Hispanic people have principles!) and they're not for sale. Not to mention watching Adam Rodriguez and Eva La Rue trying to find chemistry together is like seeing a spider trying to crawl out of a toilet bowl as you flush over and over again. It's painful and hopeless.

CSI Files Two Years Ago
Here's what was hot back in December of 2003:
- 'CSI', Petersen Nominated for Golden Globes
CSI snatched 2 Golden Globe nominations two years ago, one for Best Drama and another one for Best Actor for William Petersen (Gil Grissom). The show went up against FOX's 24, FX's Nip/Tuck, HBO's Six Feet Under and NBC's The West Wing. - Dawson Not Coming Out Just Yet
The character of Bobby Dawson, played by Gerald McCullouch, was going to be the only gay character on CSI. Dawson's revelation was supposed to take place in Grissom Vs. The Volcano" but the scene was cut. "We shot [the scene where Bobby comes out], and it was very true to life," McCullouch said. He also told the Blade that he didn't realize the scene had been cut until the episode aired. "It wasn't until I got phone calls when the show aired on the East Coast that it wasn't on the show," he said. "I thought, 'What? I've been doing two days of press on this.'" - 'CSI' Cast Goes On Location For 'Suckers'
The cast of CSI spent half a week in Las Vegas filming scenes for the episode "Suckers." "We're going to have the best sweeps period ever in February." series creator Anthony Zuiker said. "We have some really big monsters [episodes] coming up." Zuiker also talked about the likelihood of a third CSI.
