It's just TV.  We all know it's fictional.  And the Eva la Rue connection was tenuous...it seemed extremely self promotional to me.  BUT, there are a lot of younger girls on sites like this one who might need someone to tell them that you should think twice before going alone to meet some person that you only know by his internet avatar, whether it be online dating or modeling.  The internet has made it so easy for people to come in contact that wouldn't normally, and even easier for those people to misrepresent themselves.  For every fantastic photographer on here, we all have to agree that there are some people here who look they are using cell phones to take pictures.  Are they just beginners, or do they have other motives?  I am definitely against creating and using a culture of fear (don't get me started on our current administration, that's another topic) but I think precaution never hurts, and if that episode made one girl think twice about her "shoot" on Saturday with a total stranger, and caused her to research him a bit more, or let someone know where she would be and when she should be back by, is that so bad?  That being said, I think all the CSIs have gone downhill.  I never got into NY, and Miami was OK, but even Vegas I just can't get into anymore.  Just keep giving me my Nip/Tuck, Dexter and Weeds and I'm good to go!!

I like NCIS, actually. I like the characters, they have a totally hot lab tech (Abby) who never goes into the field or even sees the suspects, and there's decent action on it. Obviously, it has many of the silly factors that the "CSI" genre have, but I do know it's TV and is meant to be entertaining. It's just when a show becomes too stupid to suspend disbelief anymore that I start to rag on it. Like CSI Miami. Methinks that show jumped the shark a long time ago.

phtttfpt!

But CSI did a show a few years ago about a nut job photographer who killed several models.  This is nothing new.   It was a good show for sure. bs

I never saw that episode.  I've only been watching the CSI triumvariate for about a year now.

Actually she was. I watched the Dateline show on it a couple of nights ago.

She is alive.

My favorite line:

"That proves I had sex with her. It's a photographer's perk."

Damn, I need to talk to my union rep about this.

You're not the only one. lol

That wouldn't work didn't you see Fargo?  The body wasn't frozen but even if it was a few minutes being ground to beef would melt it anyway.

The junk yard crusher is the way to go!

I disagree... the way to go would be displayed in wonderful intellectual detail in the movie "Snatch"

The best way , aside from a vat of acid, is pigs....

I just finished watching it. Between Dateline or 20/20 (or some show like that) that I saw the other day about a photographer who murdered models, to Tyra Banks making every model on the planet paranoid about photographers, and now CSI, I'm beginning to think they're all out to get us. Or is it, we're all out to get them? Either way, TV sucks...

Yes tv sucks, but wait shouldn't photographers be a little skeered of Tyra Banks????
Isn't she the chick that throws stuff when she doesn't get her way... or cant find new baterries for her uh.... ummmm... cell phone.... LOL
