CSI Season 5 Episode 4
CSI Season 5 Episode 4
It wasn’t a bad episode, yet it wasn’t very good either. Very average for the show. And I think, it was trying to send some moral lesson, but it wasn’t clear enough to do that. Also, the method in both cases was similar- the writing …

Star Trek: Voyager - Parallax

Stargate SG-1: Heroes Part 2
I’m not as fond of Stargate SG-1: Heroes Part 2 as I am of part 1 for several reasons.
