As a season opener for a crime procedural, this episode handled a difficult subject with grace and sensitivity. Most Americans can remember exactly where they were and what they were doing on September 11th, 2001. It can be very easy for a fictional portrayal of the events of that day to go very, very wrong/anger a portion of its audience. I was a little wary of this episode, based on the promos, and promised to turn off the TV if the show crossed any lines for me.

CSI (12x01) "73 seconds"
Mostly due to Real Life commitments, I’ve drifted away from CSI over the past few years. I’ve caught a few episodes here and there, but nothing coherent, so perhaps that’s why I have no clue about some of the vibes going on in the show.
Castle (4x01) "Rise"
I am six months into this show, and thus only invested enough to make incoherent sounds of “naugh!” at the end of the teaser. Before that, I was wondering who designed such a crappy emergency room layout. Also, doesn’t the patient needs oxygen? Hands-only CPR is the standard bystander response for cardiac arrest. Eh, but what do I know? I’m not a doctor!
