Default CSI Tennis Episode "Double Fault"

They have Evert and Gimelstob on the show (so far).

I don't watch the show so let me ask: did the writers have Evert marrying someone?

Checked it out on OnDemand and found the script and acting nearly unwatchable. Is the CSI franchise always this awful, or is the new depth of suckitude something reached only with the tennis theme?

I don't usually watch the CSI shows but I saw the promo for this one and thought I would watch to see what the tennis was like. The plot, acting and just about everything was awful. I could go on for a while but I will leave it at that.

Assuming everybody has already seen the episode (spoiler alert coming), I was hoping that Evert, Gimelstob, or Lindsey Davenport would be the killer. Show would have been better if they were.

I watched a few episodes of Miami years ago and it was mostly unwatchable. NY is bearable, but some of the "clever puns" are just too stupid for words. I watched this episode of CSI as well, I see no reason to watch it again.

The woman who gets killed is shown playing in the first few minutes. Her groundstrokes looked good, but her serve technique was horrible. She seemed to be a legit player - I wonder what level she is.

As for the episode itself, it should get a 2.5 NTRP rating

Much better interpretation of CSI Miami.
