No Bad Puns, No More SOJ

image CBS Cancels “CSI: Miami”



Oh noes! No more Horatio Caine, no more of his not really witty puns, and no more of his neurotic constant removing of the famous SOJ (Sunglasses Of Justice) 30 times per episode. And after 10 solid years, no more episodes that feature the exact same plot line: At some fancy do for the young, rich, beautiful, and scantily clad, a gruesome murder occurs. With his god-like powers, the very first person Horatio talks to while removing the SOJ turns out to be the killer. But to get there, the CSI gang have to talk to 5 other suspects, all of whom lie to the police, then they have to suffer through 2 montages of them driving around the city and putting little bits into test tubes back at the lab. Then the key clue will arrive by an absolutely impossible manifestation of technology (see cartoon at left), the first witness will be brought back in for further questioning, and after being subjected to several awful Horatio quips will confess. Camera pans to scope the amazingly beautiful lady cops who come to work every day in 5” stilettos, skin tight pants, and well filled blouses open to their navels. End credits.

I won’t really miss it, though with it’s over-saturated colors and over-saturated bikinis, it was worth the occasional viewing with the sound off. And I do have a jones for Eva La Rue. Day-um. Drew like. Yum.

And now I finally get a chance to use these CSI graphics, which I’ve had sitting around on the PC for years now.



The “C.S.I.” franchise, probably the most lucrative television concept ever produced, has begun its inevitable departure from the television landscape with the news Sunday that CBS has cancelled the original spinoff, “C.S.I.: Miami.”

The crime drama, which lasted 10 seasons, most likely became the victim in this case because it was more expensive than its newer, and lower-rated, sister show, “C.S.I.: New York.” That drama is expected to be back on CBS’s schedule, which the network will announce Wednesday.

The original “C.S.I.,” set in Las Vegas and still the highest-rated of the three shows, is sure to return after a season in which it bounced back with Ted Danson as its latest star.

CBS released a statement about the decision to end the Miami show:

“C.S.I.: Miami” leaves an amazing television legacy — a signature look and style, global popularity and as a key player in CBS’s rise to the top over the past decade. We thank all the producers — led by Jerry Bruckheimer, Jonathan Littman and Ann Donahue — and its talented cast, led by David Caruso, for 10 outstanding seasons. Viewers around the world will continue to enjoy rebroadcasts of “C.S.I.: Miami” in syndication and on key digital platforms for many years to come.

“C.S.I.: Miami” was a top-rated show for most of its run and was one of the biggest sellers to international broadcasters around the world, generating hundreds of millions in revenue for CBS.

It also created one of the most imitated (and mocked) signature moments of recent television seasons: the ritual removal of the sunglasses by Mr. Caruso as he delivered an especially portentous line of dialogue.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
  1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
  2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
  3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
  4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
