2.01 She’s Gone

[xbox5angelx]

I’m watching the reboot of CSI: Vegas. I’m on the 2nd episode of season one, and I’m really liking the show.

I noticed some chemistry between two characters. So I go look for fanfiction on the two and nothing. But of course, fanfic on the ones that people would ship the male character with but to me no chemistry.

Nothing new.

So yes, it’s Maxine Roby and Joshua Folsom that I see chemistry. Not with Joshua and Allie Rajan. JMO. But I know nothing will ever happen with Max and Josh because it’s clear they’re being super obvious that they want Josh and Allie together. 🤷🏾‍♀️

But I’m really liking Paula Newsome as Maxine. Usually when you see a Black woman in a leadership ship role on tv especially a police procedural, she’s usually stoic, not too friendly with the “underlings”, co-workers, etc., standoffish, and not shown much. It’s the opposite with Maxine. I’m loving her and her interactions with the others and she’s funny too. Loving it and her! Can’t wait to find out more about her and her relationship with her son. Hopefully we find out more.

I never was invested in the Grissom and Sara relationship. It’s good to see them back though along with Brass and even Hodges. Lol Considering the circumstances.

Anyway, already on the second episode and it’s becoming a favorite. Good to be back in Vegas.

An early goodnight from me. I’m logging of for this evening.

CSI: Vegas Season 2

I am on board with this.

It’s definitely CSI:TNG, with cameos from CSI:TOS, but the new team is settling in. Funnily enough, for all I empathize with high-strung, hyper-achieving, oh-no-I-did-an-awkward Allie Rajan, I found that Det. Chavez was my standout character. I get why she and Folsom like each other. He lives deep in his head, and she doesn’t waste a moment on getting to the point. But I have a hunch she will not have any time for the Folsom/Allie pining routine, and will wave Folsom cheerily goodbye and tell him to sort out his shit. Which is fine with me as long as she keeps turning up on screen. If she’s the new Brass Junior, I’m down with that.

Catherine and Maxine are wonderful together. It was an actual rush watching them lope up to a scene together and start working the case without any preamble, like the pros they are. The Huang/Eclipse storyline looks to be an interesting long arc to follow, with reach-backs to the original series as well as Cat’s newer role as a mentor to young forensics students.

Penny is charming and reminds me of a few students in my lab. I wonder if Max was reading her clearly, though - I don’t think Penny was saying she was embarrassed by the BDSM scenario, per se, but by her sense of being out of step with her own generation because she did understand it, in theory, and just wasn’t into it.  As if she thought she was supposed to be at least intrigued. I don’t think it was simply that she’s a younger CSI with less exposure. She certainly understood Max’ comments about why some people found it useful and necessary - she herself just didn’t feel a pull.

Chris makes me want to sit him down and give him a talking to about professionalism and grown-up office culture.

I like Beau. What else is there to say?

And the nods to Sara and Grissom were delightful.
