  • Is it just me, or is Stella Bonasera a psycho magnet?
    • Yeah, what made me laugh was when she had the one night stand with the lab guy then knocked him back afterwards, presumably on the grounds that he wasn't worth bothering with as he wouldn't try to kill her.
      • that's why she should have stuck with Adam
    • So is Mac. How many killers have ended up gunning for him personally now? Including literally so in one case.
  • The episode of NY where they used a portable MRI scanner which somehow doesn't require moving the body, to construct a 3D, fully interactive model of the body which the coroner uses to instruct Mac on how to retrieve a bullet, on the other hand...
  • That Ancient Greek coin in CSI New York was found north of Nicosia- i.e. in Northern Cyprus. Why did Stella offer it back to the Greeks? As she's a Greek-American, I'd understand her not giving it to Northern Cyprus, but surely she could have gone to the Cypriot Consulate unless there is something in Greek antiquities law I'm missing.
    • She only went to confirm its authenticy not return it. She only brought a picture and the Greek Consulate is more likely to have Greek history experts i.e. the one she was meeting.
  • Was anybody else bothered by the timeline early season 5? I mean, the storyline of Danny getting better was over several months, apparently, and the Compass Killer had only been killing for a month or two.
    • This troper thinks the writers really skimped on the whole Danny recovers subplot (and that's EXACTLY what it is!). They went straight from the season 4 finale where Danny got shot to the season 5 opener where he finally starts moving his legs again. They should've at least PRETENDED there was a possibility Danny might not be able to walk again for more than one episode! What was the POINT of that subplot anyways??
  • The season two episode Heroes with the dead marine. Shouldn't that fall under NCIS jurisdiction?
    • ...And there, we missed what would have been one hell of a Crossover.
      • Though that would be one heck of a trip, seeing as that the NCIS guys operate in Washington D.C.
  • This troper thinks that they could've shown a little more reaction from the characters about Stella leaving. Especially on Mac's part. She was only his closest friend. Don't you think he would've been at least a little bit sad that she's gone?
  • The homicide motive from the episode "One Wedding and a Funeral"; [1]
  • The fact that at least one of Stella's parents was a Greek citizen, but she wasn't sent back to a Greek orphanage after they died. I suppose if one was American, she might have been able to stay...
  1. the caterer offs the groom (who was also a friend/tormentor while they were growing up) when the groom calls him away from his child's birthday to change the catering menu the day before the wedding. A) The menu would have been finalized months earlier with a card inserted in the invitations so guests can decide what they want to eat, and B) Where's the bride in all of this; it's her wedding too? I can't see a bride, especially with the elaborate wedding that was planned, being out of the loop when it came to the menu (especially changes to it).
