CSI holds onto top spot in 2003's TV ratings

Well, no. I still find its tone oddly juvenile, with the lead-in to many commercial breaks featuring a lame and/or awkwardly inappropriate pun. I still find the murders and investigations to have the feel of being clever, without the cleverness to back it up. 

And, to really seal the deal for me to not take this show seriously, tell me this scene doesn't feel like it's right out of Police Squad!


As my daughter suggested, if they'd just had the heart jumping up and down, they'd have nailed it.
