There are TWO Chucks on tonight? Is this the series finale? I should know this. I've fallen so far behind on general television knowledge.
Yes, it's the two hour series finale.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]

Oh, Chuck. I knew you were leaving, but I wasn't ready.
It's an odd time for a series finale, isn't it?
BTW, Chuck is usually in Boxed Set. Intersect and all.
Sorry! Damned confusing Intersect.
Huh. CSI is better this season, with Sam Malone and whatever writing changes they made (sorry, Morpheus--I don't think it was your fault), but this ep (mob assassination), everyone's running around handling evidence with their bare fingers and dropping it into their pockets, and moving things around at the scene before it's processed.
I thought they had their own rules (like, shedding your own DNA into a scene is totally copacetic, and who cares about footprints), but aren't they usually better about their universe rules? I mean, Nicky is wearing gloves and putting things in bags right now, so it almost feels like a callout...
Then again, I haven't seen anyone take pictures or draw a scene recently.
I caught that - on scene, with the security guard's body, he pulls out his cell phone and takes a picture of "tire tracks in the water" and then Willows ... 'cause she looks good?!?
I had, at one point, worked out an argument for why CSI is the opposite of a procedural for its disregard for procedure and inconsistency with its own rules, but that may be going too far. It's always been a loose cannon, though.
There were tire tracks in the water? Heh.
I had created my own list of CSI universe truths:
You know, that sort of stuff. I'd been lazily figuring they were consistent with those. Well, Orange excluded--their main consistency is being crappy. I swear I just saw a promo where Horatio said "It must be twins!" and all I can think is--you did that already. You extra did that. Colin's ep had doubles and triplets. There are no bigger lampshades.
I admit, once I made my peace with their break from reality I didn't worry about in-universe consistency. That could be slipping and I would never know.
