If George Eads (Nick Stokes) could write one episode of CSI, his character would most likely not survive.

"I would like to do an episode in which I'm in a bar and I overhear people saying we did poorly on a case. I go over, start a fight and get my [behind] kicked. I get beaten up," Eads said at the CBS post-press conference party. "At the end of the episode, Grissom asks me, 'Are you still fighting?'"

But Nick Stokes has already been on the brink of death. The character was buried alive and attacked by fire ants in the season finale "Grave Danger." It wasn't a disturbing experience for the character alone; Eads found himself perturbed about it even when he was home. "I took it very seriously," the actor said. "I contemplated my own death."

Eads's performance in the episode showered him with praise from critics all around the country. Eads gave credit to "Grave Danger" director Quentin Tarantino, who has been a fan of the show since the pilot. "He told me things that showed he knew more about my character than I did," the actor said. "I hold him in such reverence. There's nothing I wouldn't do for him."

Lastly, Eads discussed last summer's firings, which, the actor claimed, was a learning experience. "I'm a more mature businessman now," he said.

Why can't the CSIs get dates?

	All work and no play makes Greg a blue boy.
	It probably has something to do with the fact that every time Horatio Caine has sex with a woman, she dies.
	Shower sex loses its allure when there's lemons involved.
	These people collect body fluids for a living. Then again, if David the coroner can get laid...
	They can get dates, I bet. We just don't see it.
	Three words: Hank the Skank.
