Another shout out to old fans: y'all need to watch season 10. No really.

[beelikej]

Oh CSI, every time I'm strapping myself in to be dissapointed you raise the bar for awesome. Jeebus. What a winner episode.
I must admit I feared for Henry at the start and was actually annoyed by the guys. Nick of all people should know what it feels like to be ambushed like that. *glares* I guess they all got over their issues with scary places. Also: why wasn't Archie there in stead of Hodges? Kind of a strange group-dynamic, if you ask me.

But enough with the bitching: as it turned out, this was an AWESOME episode with a plot that kept everyone on their toes (Yes, I also mean the Jekyl story-line, even though I mostly used that B-case as an opportunity to breathe:)
As for the chemistry and subtext between Nick and Greg? Overwhelmingly present. I was thrilled to see Greg doing his McGyver and even though Nick was a little too triggerhappy, I loved him as Texan tough guy with the gun an' all.
Seperately the guys were on a roll, together they sparkled. And -dayum- did they look good all over.
There was touching (nice cover up with the 'closed'-note, Nick;) and there were looks, but best of all was Nick giving Greg a 'leg up' and watching him climb up that pole.
There aren't enough words to capture all the subtext in this episode, it surpassed the text in many moments. Last week's bowling was merely foreplay compared with this slashfest. \o/

P.S. artistic_sillie I got your card today: pretty (and appropriate;) thank you! What's the last episode we saw together? We need to set a date for the next CSI/SPN-marathon (as soon as I fix my upstairs-computer/divx-player, mkay?). Anyone else who wants to come over? Let me know!

Henry was pretty wasn't he? I don't normally think so. But I felt for the boy.

Nick of all people should know what it feels like to be ambushed like that. *glares* EXACTLY!!!! And threatened with a knife? Why would Greg do that either?

And where the hell is Archie? And Bobby? I'm starting to get worried.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Henry was indeed looking good and I don't usually see that either;) Both Greg and Nick had an awesome hairday (dayS?night? wtf timeframe).

I wasn't in on the joke and was really freaked out just by watching that while knowing what had happened before. I can only imagine how Henry felt. Seriously. Guys. What the fuck. Still: I was so relieved they were going for food and not a titty-bar, because that would have been totally OOC for all the men involved. *grins*

I'm worried every time I start watching an episode. I expect canon to crumble any day now after all the happy it's been giving me so far. But I am disappointed about the lack of Archie and Bobby. At least the first one still gets mentioned occasionally, but I fear Bobby is forgotten like continuity. That makes me sad.

Word. It's scary. And yeah, the continuity? Out the window. Right now the best shows for continuity are NCIS (!!! I know! A CSI knockoff) and Criminal Minds.

That isn't promising.

I have to assume Archie and Bobby were all 'yeeeah, we're not twelve, thanks,' and didn't want in on the boy!douchery ;).

I had so much glee with such the teaser! Henry! Boys rolling their car and finding this AWESOME! Nick trusting Greg's orientation skills! Henry! (He got the badabing line, too, aww!)

And ha, that wasn't so much a leg-up as an excuse to grope Greg's butt (and of course Nick and Hodges both took advantage to stare at said butt rather shamelessly. Heeee!

Ohhh, I could go on and on. But I won't! Suffice it to say this episode made me want to recap again.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Or they are vegetarians and therefore declined going for Harry's ribs;)

I was seriously worried about Henry and was yelling at the guys even more than he was when we found out what was going on. (Don't EVER surprise me like that for my birthday. Djeez.) Ofcourse then they made it all better by being AWESOME.
I loved that Nick was annoyed that Hodges distracted him with non-information while Greg was climbing up.

Ooooh, I'd love one of your recaps for this one. Bunnies, bunnies, it must be bunniiiiiiiiiiies. Ehm. Sorry, felt like belting that one. *innocent look*

[tanisafan.livejournal.com]

Lol ewww, do not want to think about Harry's ribs!

Dude, I would never surprise anyone like that, that is a totally sucky thing to do and I wouldn't appreciate it either!

Oh, dude, I forgot to say: I was squealing so hard over the list of true crime shows Higgins was watching: 'stalker to killer', 'I-15 killer', 'murder of the co-ed', 'blood drops'. OMG THESE REFERENCES.

*g* I probably don't have time for a recap today, those things take hours. I wonder if I can still write the boys...

... I need a CSI icon.

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

OMG YES, the references, I noticed that toooooooo. Total shout out!

Hmmm, CSI icon. Let's see if I can help you with that...

[rabidfan.livejournal.com]

It's really nice to have season three levels of fun again. I hope it lasts!

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Me too, but whatever happens, at least we got all this goodness already:) It does feel like the old days a bit, except the frantic flirting has been replaced by comfortable closeness.
As a mod I track the comments on the new episode posts in nickngreg and just like last time my inbox exploded. Of course I avoid spoilers until I can actually sit down for the episode, but every time I receive comment-notifications I always fear for the worst. Luckily so far it was mostly squee and everybody is enjoying canon. The guys are giving us so much to work with. But I can't help but worry for TPTB to fuck it up.

At the moment, I'm waiting patiently for my download to finish. Hopefully, I'll be able to watch the episode tonight or somewhere to morrow. *can't wait*

Wahee! Glad you like the card. :D
Last episode we saw together... uh... episode 5 I think. We skipped episode 4 though, I believe. Let me know when you have everything fixed, and we'll pinpoint a date. :D

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Okay. Definitely watch both Ep8 and 9 then. It has a nice build up of squee;) (I hope I'm not getting you too excited and setting you up for disappointment, but as you can probably tell from other sources, it really is that good at the moment;)

Have fun! Hopefully I can figure things in the attic out next weekend when brotherdearest will come over to take a look at my comatose computer... I really want to see that SPN with the tv-confusion.

[sillie]

I've got one of the two already downloaded, waiting on the other now. I'll definitely watch them both.

Ah yes, that one's a very awesome and funny episode. So we definitely must see that one. :D

Oh! P.s.
Progress on the application letter I send... Got a phonecall yesterday, and I'm having an interview this coming monday! I'm both excited and nervous about this. :D

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

That is great! Focus on excited: you can do the job and they already picked your letter, so you have something they want! Be confident and I'll wave my pompoms:)

[sillie]

Okay, confident. Check. :D I'll let you know how it goes. :D:D
