By the way, Slate had an article about Grissom yesterday that talked quite a bit about fanfic, slash and het.
The girl's not playing with a full deck, Giles. She has almost no deck. She has a three.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
While they were fixing the ship, did they pause and fix the characters in the ship?
I didn't bother to check. Just reading the summaries gave me hives.
ETA: That's one of the reason I call it the new Spuffy; there's a tendency to go straight to the schmoop while sweeping everything else under the rug.

I like Grissom/Sara ( as I liked Spike/Buffy), but I do like them broken, because they are.
(although I have a soft spot for well-written schmoop of just about any ship when I am in the mood. I just don't really think of it as in character.

Yes. I feel that way about both pairings--if the brokenness is acknowledged, it can lead to some very good fic.
I also agree with you about well-written schmoop. Sometimes I'm in the mood for it the way I'm sometimes in the mood for a big gooey dessert that otherwise would make me feel ill.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I like the way that this season it's sort of become an open secret between the two of them. There's no more of these tentative overtures from Sara, with Grissom ducking out of it. He knows, and she knows he knows, and they don't really know what to do with it.

Michael gets Mary-Sue-ized:
His hair was perfect, a combination of textures, a fusion of wondrous colors, an astoundingly perfect blend of sun kissed locks and even in this light one could see the distinctive russet, auburn, dark blonde, dark brown and silver and gray locks.

He was truly a magnificent specimen of a man, handsome but not pretty, tall but not gigantic, trim but not skinny and unaffected as all hell.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I've seen that look a lot. It generally makes me think "highlighting malfunction."

He sounds like a tortoiseshell (sp?) cat!
