LOVED this episode! It is so nice to have one of their quirky episodes rather than all the time serious. And it’s always good to see the lab folks. One thing I’m not so thrilled with is how the rest of the cast treats the pseudo-Trekkies and their culture with disdain. In the days of Grissom, we saw many different sub-cultures (remember the Furries?) and while there was ookiness expressed, I don’t feel like there was the same level of contempt that I felt in this episode. Which, I need to say, I thought was hilarious, even with Nicky and Greg’s snobbery. I was actually surprised at Greg; considering some of the other things he’s been into, it was sad that his character was so…. meh, compared with the old Greg who danced around with gloves on his head. The side fantasies from Hodges are wonderful and it was enjoyable to see the fun part of CSI again. Just wish it happened more often!
PS Oh yes, and there was the cameo by Mike Newton from Twilight. Priceless! Especially in his atrocious hairpiece!!
