Obituary

Texas Biscuit wrote an obituary on Nate Fisher of Six Feet Under. (Heck! I don't think this last season will be aired here. I gave up watching SFU a long time ago after our censorship board excised some of the gay-themed subplots. I'll probably order the DVDs from overseas later.)

Anyway. I just watched the premiere episode of CSI:Miami Season 3. (Yeah i know i know.. we're way way behind.) I knew Tim Speedle was going to die. I just couldn't stay away from those damn spoilers so I knew how he's going to die. And in a way it sort of cushioned the effect. Speed was my fav character and i would have cried my heart out.

But even if I didn't read the spoilers... everything points to him.. First was the trailer. It went something like "..this season is going to be sizzling hot! so hot that one of the CSI won't be able to survive it!" okay someone's going to die. And then there's the opening credits, Speed was moved to the last spot appearing even after Yelina! (i guess it'll be easier to edit him out). A few minutes into the show, an exasperated Calleigh said "I'm going to kill Speed!". Soon after, Horatio commented on Speed's mode of transport telling him he needed something with doors. Speed replied "there's plenty of time for that." Foreshadow galore~~

Rory Cochrane, who played the part of Speed, wanted out. But at least the producers could have arranged a better death for him. He died because he got shot. And he got shot because he was distracted when his gun jammed. And his gun jammed because he hasn't been cleaning it. It happened to him before in a Season 1 episode. And given his character, i thought he would have prevented it from happening a second time. And he didn't even get to shoot/kill anyone!

Okay, i got this off my chest.
