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.
