Nick and Sara add nothing to the show. However, like I've said in other posts, I'd rather kill off Sara.

Warwick is katherine's pet project. Remember, they almost hooked up last season.

Sara is Grissom's pet project. I still think these two will get together.

Greg is everbody's little buddy.

Nick really has no ties to anybody. Killing him off might bug Warwick as they tend to work together but I still don't see Nick's death shaking up the show.

If the rumour is true that William Petersen wants to leave at contracts end, perhaps a conflict between Nick and Warwick could start up as the battle for Katherine's spot as she'd obviously be promoted.

I so agree with Greg needing a bigger role. Frankly, I've grown tired of Grissom's character (shocking as that is). Everyone insists he is the heart of the show and yet the best episode of this season was the one where he wasn't in it.

Yay! Kill Nick Stokes! Glad I'm not the only sicko blogging for TV Squad...

I don't know about Aiden, but Rory Cochran wanted out of CSI:Miami. Had he renewed, there would not have been a shakeup. I do admit him leaving was a good thing because I always thought he was a bit wooden on the show and it is much better now.

We are seeing less and less of Grissom each episode except for ones that focus mainly on him. Killing off Nick would take yet another player out of it. I say give less airtime to the various lab techs and more to the CSI's so we can see a little more development.

How can you say Miami is better without speedle? The last season was awesome, but the guy who replaced him stinks... I can't even remember his name right now he was so boring. I actually stopped watching because he was so annoying. Agreed about Nick... this show has lost its appeal... starting with last season. It needs to be shaken up.

I'm with Jake, the anti-Speedle is terrible. As far as Las Vegas, I would rather they take out Sara. I don't enjoy her character's arc as much as Nick's. They still have a lot of post traumatic stress stuff they can explore with him if they choose to. Plus, killing Sara would be a good reason to give Grissom something interesting to do. He almost seems to be phoning it in anymore. I wouldn't be against whoever it is that gets killed doing so while they are in a car with the annoying suck-up lab guy. Bring back Diane Mizota and get rid of that guy.

What I've never been able to understand is why do people keep thinking of new character of anti this or 2.0 that. To me if an old character goes away/dies and a new character is introduced, it's exactly what it is, A NEW CHARACTER. Not a replacement but a new character. Unless it's the same character but a different actor, I usually don't have a beef about it.

Anyway, I've never liked Nick as a character so if he dies, I say it's about friggin' time.

I've never felt that Sara's character has been treated right on this show but neither has Catherine's. These people just can't write female characters right if you ask me, but at least Sara's more interesting than Nick with her attitude, drinking problems and Grissom obsession. Nick's a bit too goody two shoes for me.

If you ask me, give the gal detective (who used to be a day shift CSI) and Greg more screen time and kill off Nick. Or if not kill him off, at least give him a way out because it seems they're going that direction anyway.

There was an episode this season where Nick was hellbound in finding the little girl who survived the massacre in her house (the one about pot selling) and I got this feeling that Nick perhaps wants to become a rescue worker rather than someone working with corpses and dead people. Considering what he's been through with the whole being buried alive thing, I'm thinking he could be looking for a change in scenery.

NO DAMN WAY>>>Nick is the hottest sexiest man on CSI take him off and I will be one man to no longer be watching CSI. Period.

I was all for killing him when he had that brown catepillar on his face. But Nick is the Eff-up, the person that always messes up something or can't figure out what's going on and helps all the charcaters to come together and solve that case.

Sure i guess you can kill him, but he's the eye candy (personally i think warwick is way hotter) Mr. All american good guy. And people who do not interact with the show and let it glaze over them, won't want to see him gone. People are afraid of change.

Yes, they should kill someone
Yes, they should stop referring to catherine's stripping days.

But if wishes were horses then beggars would ride.

(i realize that entire post made little sense sorry for wasting your time.)

That THING on his upper lip was horrible. I couldn't stop staring at it. He deserves to die, just for that. They even made little jokes about it IN the episode. Whose idea was that? The director? His?

He needs to die (in the show).

That girl who came on in CSI:NY is the same girl that played the good girl/bad girl in the previous week's Without a Trace. That was really really disturbing for me.

I can not see how kiling Nick would shake up the show. I have been a fan of the show from the beginning and while Nick has never bothered me, has has never wowed me either.

A possible shakeup would be to have him killed by Electra (oops Sara) and then have her sent to death row with no chance of appeal.

I can't really see killing of Nick I like him. He brings feelings to an episode. Need him to keep Sara a smiling person.
Look how depressed Sara was last season after the team was split and now that she's back working with Nick she seems a happier person again. Just show's what a perfect couple they'd make.

They need to give more air time to Sofia she's an interesting person.

I agree that Greg needs more screen time. But as of yet,cos I live in the Uk haven't seen any of season 6. But I cant wait for it to come here.

Kill of Nick?! Blasphemy.
Kill off Greg instead. He's only there for comic relief anyway.

since when is does everyone love Greg? I never have and have just considered him pretty much a waste of airtime. I have yet to see what appeal he has. As for Nick; well, I started watching the show because its about forensics (I work in forensics and it was a novelty to actually see it glamourized) and because I've like Billy Peterson way back when he was in "Manhunter." I kept watching because of Nicky. And that will continue to be true no matter how much the powers that be try to shove the non-existent relationship between Grissom and Sara and that complete waste of airtime, Sofia, down the viewers throats. I was one of the many that complained to the network when Moonves fired George Eads and Jorja Fox. I could, personally live without the Sara character and her manufactured angst but losing Nicky would lose me as a viewer completely.

And BTW: the only reason those two actors were written out of the other two series (and honestly, can we really consider the Miami show a CSI spinoff when all it is is the David Caruso (let's chew the scenary) Show) is because both actors wanted to pursue movie rolls. Obviously, niether one of these two learned a thing from David Caruso and his venture into movies.

well, I think to kill Nick isn't a good way to shake p the show. Sara's dead could it be a good way to shake up. But, it does not ensure the success. Also the comparisons with the previous seasons will become eternal

CSI it's good just like this... well, a few chapters form season six looks like "The CSI X Files", but, I enjoy every episode and all the spin off.

I see Nick death affecting the show ALOT.Look at CSI:Miami how it effected the show after Speed was gone,even if Wolf is good he is still not Speed and could never replace Speed's place.I don't like the way you talk about Nick what so ever,you are totally wrong,changes are not always good and this one would be a disaster.No Nick,CSI would be terrible.I think everyone is a lil' bit angry because after all those seasons they did not kill no one off the show and people love to see drama.So do I but theirs already enough drame without killing one of the most imporant caracter in the show.Just leave the show alone it's great and amazing the way it is right now.It's number 1 on thursday and the number drama.So the show is great the way it is and leave Nick alone.
