Straight Crime Drama
Hitchcoc9 February 2021
A former thief who spent seven years in prison kills the man who ratted on him. Unfortunately, he gets T-boned by a young woman as he is leaving the scene. She makes the mistake of trying to call the police and he breaks her neck. He is a skilled criminal and has had great success covering his tracks and setting up distractions. Ultimately, it's the diligence of the CSI's, looking at little things, that starts the ball rolling. Good episode.

The Family Man
claudio_carvalho1 February 2023
A man crosses an alley during the night and climbs into a low budget motel window. Then he shoots a man three time with a silenced pistol. He leaves the crime scene and drives an old car, but a teenage girl runs the red light and crashes him. She admits that she is guilty and wants to call the police, but the man tells her to forget and drive back home. However, he sees her calling the police instead. Soon the teenage girl is found dead near her wrecked car and the CSI believes she died in the car crash. Capt. Brass identifies her as Ally Sullivan and her father tells that she wanted to be a club hostess and liked to go to the clubs to become well-known. Meanwhile, the killer is the family man Red Cooper, a former bank robber married with a child that continues to live his life with his family. But the CSI proceeds the investigation, following leads.

"Killer" is an episode of "CSI" where the viewer follows the life of the killer. The slain teenager is probably the cause of the deep investigation of CSI, since Clayton Nash was a lowlife and not the reason for the investigation. William Sadler has a great performance, as usual. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Killer"

He Just Couldn't Let It Go
ccthemovieman-121 March 2007
A man is viewed sneaking into a low-rent district apartment and then shooting a man to death, a man who knew him and said he "wasn't surprised" that this old acquaintance came to see him. The killer then goes back into his car but is slammed into by another driver, a young girl who gets talked out of calling the police, but she dials her cell phone, she's history. How the killer disposed of her is not known immediately as Lt.Jim Brass and CSI's Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle only see a body lying next to the car. They quickly deduce she must have been the driver who caused the accident, but how did she die and where is the other driver? All of this is the beginning of this episode, which involves this one case. (Lately, unlike in the past, this CSI program has been concentrating on one story at a time.)

William Sadler, who has made a movie career out of playing a lot of bad guys, plays "Red Cooper," an ex-bank robber, one of the best-ever in the U.S. He was ratted out by one guy seven years ago - the guy Sadler killed in the dingy apartment. Unfortunately for him, he admits to his wife, "I couldn't let it go," and, really unfortunate for the young woman was she hit the wrong driver at the wrong time.

CSI slowly makes sure, through a lot of different evidence (and luck, of course) that Cooper pays for his recent sins, too.

Another ridiculous episode by a ridiculous show
interestingstuff20 February 2022
Another ridiculous episode that insults viewers' intelligence, as 90% of CSI episodes are.

"Hey we found blue paint chip and the ONLY car in the world with this type of blue color is Ford Taurus from 1995."

Are you kidding me? They might as well use psychics and pure magic to find killers next time. It would be far less ridiculous. People watch stuff like this and think that this is how CSI actually works in real life. This show is a cartoon compared to what CSI actually is like. It's a total joke.

This show should be marked as "comedy" not "crime drama" because it is pure comedy.
