In this episode of CSI: Miami, we found out what kind of secret Eric has to hide and learn whether there's any progress in the Eric - Calleigh relationship. It was a dark and stormy night...and the episode opens to a therapy session between a therapist, Dr. Marsh (Gail O'Grady), and a man telling her of his dreams to kill her.

Bring out your dead!

Following last season’s departure of Khandi Alexander from CSI: Miami (Mondays at 9 pm/ET, CBS), there’s a new medical examiner getting her hands bloody in Miami: Megalyn Echikunwoke’s Dr. Tara Price.

So, we were looking forward ...

Question: So, we were looking forward to the season premiere of CSI: Miami. We actually do like it. Never thought the acting was God-awful, though the Caruso sunglass removal is a bit much sometimes. But last Monday's broadcast has me wondering if we were watching a totally different show. It seemed almost cobbled together, and I am not sure what was worse: the script or the players' attempt to interpret it. My husband was in and out of sleep and even commented on the lack of acting skill. Also, I believe David Caruso set a new personal record for the sunglass removal. Emily Proctor was a beautiful woman, until she discovered either collagen or Botox. Anyway, it would appear the shark has been jumped. I feel better now.

Answer: Is there a more useless season-ending cliffhanger stunt than pretending that your lead actor has been shot and killed — regardless of how many people are secretly pining for it to be true. (Lots, according to my mailbag.) More fans are curious about what the text message meant on Ryan's phone after the shots rang out. Believe me when I say the answer to that puzzle and to Horatio's fate is not only groaningly obvious but also (typical for this show) absolutely preposterous. Train-wreck TV, indeed. I can't believe so many fall for it ...
