Great show, great actors
9 January 2012
I read all reviews and I'm happy that most of them are positive.I'm relatively new to CI and after a quick count it became clear that I saw only third of the episodes so far. I can hardly explain how much I love the series. It means Goren and Eames to me - the stories with other detectives do not interest me at all. I began to watch because of the cases, but soon Vincent D'Onofrio lured away my attention. He is such a fine and talented actor, a true artist, and his Goren is such a pleasure to watch!He is clever, funny, overwhelming, awesome..I simply adore his little mannerisms, strange movements and flexibility which made Bobby so unique.He's a gentle giant, I find him so sexy and handsome even in the later seasons when he's older and heavier. What a gorgeous man!

I think Goren is one of the greatest fictional characters, just like Sherlock Holmes, whom he is based upon. Some reviews say he is irritating - if you want to see really irritating "acting", try CSI:Miami and look for red hair..

My opinion is that Kate Erbe is as superb as Vincent. I do not see Eames as a mere sidekick, she is a great character and complements Goren totally. She is a smart, clever, brave cop in a tough manly environment. I like her sarcasm, the show needs that tiny amount of fun she provides. What I like the most in the Goren-Eames partnership is the deep respect they have for each other, but I'm not a shipper at all.

I love every episode I saw, it is really hard to pick favs, but those with super villain Nicole Wallace are phenomenal. I really liked Art (1.2.), Jones (1.5.), Badge (1.20.), Chinoiserie (2.5.) and Prisoner (5.3.), just to mention a few.

I'd like to say big thanks to all the fine actors, writers and crew who created such an amazing show.
