Hey matteo! Remember when you asked why people dislike David Caruso? This is why.

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I loved that. Spit up coffee twice, and I was only drinking water! Thanks!

He looks a bit awkward in the few indoor scenes because he can't use the ol' shades for emphasis.

Hilarious! I have never seen CSI miami, but I don't think I need to now.

"was the mob sent to draw us to the crime scene...[puts on sunglasses] or to destroy it?"

hee!

Absolutely wonderful!

The whole CSI franchise gives me the creeps. I think the Vegas one is the least sucky of the bunch but they all suXX0rZ.

I love the scream/punctuation sound. Makes me wish I had a personal soundtrack. I'd do that shit all the time:

"Here's your receipt, sir."

"Thanks. I'll put it [sunglasses on] in the bag [scream sound up]."

*surveys the battered, lifeless body of David Caruso*

The Matteo gang wanted him out of the picture, that much we know. So was it a business deal gone bad? Or just some LunaticFringe who couldn't stand the guy?

Or, maybe... *puts on sunglasses* ...it was all about the naked pictures. [nsfw]

OMG! My roommate always makes me watch CSI Miami. Caruso drives me up the friggin' wall. How does he get work?! He's like a bad magician:
"And now your girlfriend…(saws woman in half)…is ready for that three-way"
"And this completely empty hat…(waves wand)…now has a bunny in it"
It's unbearable!

You can't prove anything!

*walks out of bathroom*

"The question is... Does anyone have some lysol?" *puts on shades* "...because I just took a crap that smells like a garbage fire."

YEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHH!

Maybe Matteo was thinking about that other Caruso.

This one? Not so great.

I like the show. It's good fun. So is Caruso.

*looks up, sees Hugh and Wino's comments, laughs until she falls off her chair, bangs back of head on floor*

I love CSI, all variants. The way each show has a stock set of characters, often with similar plotlines, allowing each respective city to distinguish one CSI from another, is genius.

It's all a bit like the active landscape of *puts on shades* Egdon Heath in *removes shades* Hardy's Return of the Native.

Years ago I read an article by some guys who were calling around pretending they were publicists trying to get their client invited to A-list events. They discovered that for any given event they could easily get invites for Robert Mitchum (who was dead) but whenever they said they were calling on behalf David Caruso there were never any more invitations available. Never.

They probably remember back when Mitchum would show up everywhere he went with the the best reefer in the State of California.

I've been literally laughing... OUT loud... and I... wanna thank you for THAT

I love you all (some of you more than others)

and really whenever he called Rory Cochrane "Speed" in a whisper it was the awesomest thing ev4r in the history of acting

I think I'm just going to start randomly yelling YEEEEAAAAAAAAHHH! in threads when people get off a good one-liner.

God, what a douchebag.

While his cadences are pure Trek-era Shatner, Carrot Cop is more the McLean Stevenson of the New Millennium.
