old school csi

[cimorene]

so we're dling and watching old school csi.  and last night we watched 106 (i think), in which nicky almost gets shot and grissom pulls his gun after growling "i hope i never have to!" at the bitchy cop who's snarling at warrick.

how many of their current plot-threads-in-progress had already begun?  count em!

they were totally working the "warrick is hot" angle. 

sara: we need to take this car apart.
warrick: okay, let's do it. [tugs his dress shirt sharply to unbutton it in a manly fashion]
sara: [has undressed while you were drooling over warrick's manly biceps and is throwing her shirt in the car]

nicky, with his little hair fin, was totally macking on greg in the lab, while greg got in as much gratuitous ass-wriggling as possible.  grissom comes in and greg takes this as an excuse to edge even closer to nick, who at the end of the scene pats him on the shoulder seizes an excuse to throw his arm around him and then leans in and fondles his chest.

warrick was already trying to cover for catherine with grissom.  aw!  catherine, get it together and leave that asshole for the hunk of blue-eyed, no-longer-gambling manflesh right under your nose!

and not in the every day run of things, george eads proved that he can actually act the fuck out of his part with this stunning breakdown, almost to tears, when his life is threatened.  well, okay, he DOES cry, but first he gets all bright-eyed, red-faced and trembly, and... wow, man.  WOW.

The stalked!episode, right? I love that episode. It's one of my favorites, along with the one where Greg whines because Nick never takes him out on the job and always takes Archie and Nick's like 'you've got to have the right man for the job' and archie has this star trek moment and it's hilarious.

mmmno, nobody was stalked. i've read about that one, but we haven't got to it yet. this was the one where they're investigating a woman's body in the foundation of her house; they think her ex killed her but it turns out it was his wife, and when nicky figures it out the wife is going to shoot him.

[blue_ant]

Ahhhh. Oh yes. I remember that one as well. I have, perhaps, seen too many episodes of CSI.

[cimness.livejournal.com]

no way! not possible.

[blue_ant]

Ok, you've got a point.

except it wasn't her house, it was someone else's. doh.

Oh, I love that episode! Nick is so wonderfully human and affected after being threatened with a gun, and not an emotionless supercop.

[cimness.livejournal.com]

he's not very tough!cop at all. just. y'know. kinda strong and footbally. but not a big toughie. he's totally cuddly and actually kinda scrawny early on. he built up those nice muscles and pecs later. <3

I rather preferred the lean version of him. Those tight, tight shits he wears looked better on him before he got all buffed up.

Those tight, tight shits he wears ::is ten:: ::snickers::

HE SO IS. he obviously is.

or maybe we're just picking up the vibes from the actor. :cough:

but dude, he's talking to someone about doing a favor for a hooker and he says "she doesn't have anybody else." of course he mentions the boobs too.

Also, the fact that he's never had a girlfriend/date during the entire run of the series helps me think that little old Nick bats for the other team. Yep, we can dream, can't we?

except for the bit where he fucked the hooker and then she got killed.

so, you know. bi.

I saw that episode recently on Spike TV. I, too, was impressed with the crying and wotnot.

yeah. call me shallow, but i didn't really suspect they'd hired george for his acting ability. he's adorable and has nice chemistry with the rest of the ensemble and whatnot, but... well, look at him.
