Did anyone else stay up for the season premiere of CSI last night? I'm not impressed with Danson's character and probably won't be following this season. I have a few seasons on dvd and will just go to my favorites when I need a CSI fix.

The show hasn't been the same since William Peterson left. I couldn't warm up to Lawrence Fishburn's character. I recorded the show last night but haven't watched it.

Interested in hearing your reaction when you are able to watch it. I agree that William Peterson was the best.

I feel the same.

I probably won't be following it either, I'm not a Ted Danson fan.

I had problems with Lawrence Fishburn's character also and stopped watching the show when he joined. Didn't even bother to watch the season opener. I am interested to see what everyone else thought and maybe I'll stay up late to watch an episode or 2 if it's better.

I liked Fishburn's part -- but not Danson's!!! As for William Peterson's part ---- well, he was a little too odd for me!
I must have missed the last show of the season last year!!! What did Fishburn's part do that caused him to leave?

I loved Fishburn's character. Really liked the opener last night. If you have a chance to see movie Thurgood, don't miss it! One of the all time best. It is a filming of a stage tour de force that Fishburn did.

I've been watching CSI all along and have liked all the main characters. Of course, William Peterson was the best, but I have also liked Lawrence Fishburn and now Ted Danson. I think they're just making him seem kooky and eccentric to make him hard to like at first, and to offset the very troubled and serious character that Fishburn played. I'm looking forward to more with Ted Danson and think he will fit in just fine.

I caught it but not sure i'm going to keep watching it. I usually like Ted Danson but not in this part for some reason.
why did Peterson leave? ratings?
