Does anybody on here watch CSI: NY, Bones, Fringe, Leverage, or The Mentalist?

If so, what are your thoughts on the shows and characters?

CelticGrace · Mar 12, 2010

I've watched all at one time or another, though Fringe was just too weird for me so I stopped watching it. I mostly watch CSI: NY and Bones.
NY is currently my fav. of the CSI shows, or more specifically Mac & Stella are my fav. leads in the CSI shows because they have the best chemistry.
And I absolutely love Bones. It's just an awesome show all around.

I currently can't watch Leverage because we don't have cable at the moment but it's a great show as well. And while I love The Mentalist, I always forget that it's on Thursday and therefore almost always forget it (even though I'm watching Survivor before it and get all the commercials for it, I tend to turn the TV off after Survivor LOL).

NY is my least favorite CSI. It's good, but not as good as the others. Fringe is an excellent show. I actually just started watching it a couple of months ago, so I'm still in season one. I like Joshua Jackson, and Anna Torv....well, I'll just say....I like her too

And it's got the guy who played Denethor from the Lord of the Rings. You CAN'T go wrong with that!

Fringe

PretenderGurl · Mar 16, 2010

I LOVE CSI: NY.It's my favorite of all the CSI's as well. I used to watch the original, but when Sara and Grissom got together it killed it for me. It was looking up again after she left the show, but when he left, it killed it again. That has got to be the only show that has been killed more that once. o.o

I love Mac and Stella. They are my favorite's, but I also love Adam.. (though not at all with Stella... >_<).

I love Bones! The humor, the crimes, and the relationship between Brennan and Booth. I heart Booth. I often say that Booth is my dream guy. He's so sweet.

Fringe is awesome, but hard to follow if you haven't seen it from the beginning. I had to watch them all online to catch up on one's I'd missed. The imagination that goes into the show is amazing! I love seeing what they come up with next! And the humor. Peter and Walter are hilarious.

Leverage is seriously genius. The idea that a bunch of criminals can get even with the big guy for the little guy... Love it! It's an awesome idea and it really works. And again, the humor! Eliot and Hardison are too funny. The nerd and the tough guy always picking at eachother. Major bonus!

The Mentalist, as of now, is my current obsession, but I really can't decide which show I enjoy more. They are all pretty much equal for me. My reason for watching The Mentalist is Jane. He's hilarious! So blunt with is smart remarks. Talking mess, and running away when people react with anger. It makes me laugh. =P And the bickering between him and Lisbon... total bonus. Hilarious!

As you can tell, I love humor! Combine that with crime solving, and it's got my vote. I loved Eleventh Hour as well. Saw every eppy of the 1st season. Too bad CBS didn't feel the same... =/ It had real potential. Such sadness...

I used to watch Fringe until some old favorites pulled me away from it.

I love fringe and leverage.

I love CSI:NY and Leverage.

CSI:NY - I love Gary Sinese. I think he is a fantastic actor and his character (Mac Taylor) is great.

Leverage is a great show because it's different. Bad guys doing good things with a humorous approach? Love it! I also love the cast, can't choose a favorite character.

I'll watch Fringe occasionally, and I do like it a lot, but it seems like I get the episodes where you need background info that I don't know, so it doesn't make a lot of sense. I will eventually watch it straight through from the beginning.

Mac is awesome! I love his character. He knows how to do his job, and he knows what's more important in different situations. The job or the friend.. in the eppy Grounds for Deception for example.

Leverage is a great show because it's different. Bad guys doing good things with a humorous approach? Love it! I also love the cast, can't choose a favorite character.

Exactly! I love it! That idea was genius! But Eliot is my favorite! I heart him. =D

I just bought season 1 on dvd. I'd let you borrow it if I could. lol.

Of the shows mentioned in the OP, Fringe and Leverage are the ones I enjoy the most as well. I enjoy the premise of Leverage and think its just quirky enough to be fun, but also has enough action to keep me interested. Fringe's Walter has got to be one of the most entertaining characters currently on TV - and the storylines are fresh and interesting. My son (who enjoys sci-fi stuff) and I have made it "must see" tv.

jamiejohn · Apr 27, 2010

I've only watched a few episodes of the Mentalist, seems pretty good so far. Red John seems like a really mean bugger I hope they catch him eventually.

Also liking Psych, like a mentalist lite with a light hearted spin, kinda cheesy but it is fun.

KoolKat · Aug 25, 2010

i like CSI:NY. especially stella 'cause the actress is greek like me and she's from around the same parts of the US as i am.

puppetmaster · Aug 28, 2010

I've seen a few of those shows. Bones is my favorite

I used to watch the Fringe, but then it got a little over the top with the supernatural, so I quit.

Gnarwhal · Sep 25, 2010

I air Bones on Saturday nights at my job, it's a pretty cool show. I really like David Boreanaz and Emily Deschanel as characters, they have excellent on-screen chemistry. The plots tend to be entertaining enough to grip a person for the duration of the show, and the supporting characters (e.g. Hodges, Sweets) are cool and often really funny. I don't watch it outside of work, but when I do see it I can tell you that underlying romantic tension between Booth and Bones really gets you—you're rooting for them to get together, haha.

As for the other shows, I haven't watched any of the CSI shows in ages, but I always found them entertaining (at least Vegas and Miami were...) though they tended to push the envelope with their content.

mjsk · Nov 12, 2010

I watch Leverage. I think the cast is great, and they do a really good job of mixing clever stories with a lot of humor.

puregrl · Dec 27, 2010

I love Bones! I prefer the regular CSI over CSI:NY though.

LadyNRA · Mar 9, 2011

Love both Bones and Fringe.

FRM48 · Mar 13, 2011

I like to watch Bones,Fringe,CSI,but my favorite is CSI Miami.I love Horatio's one liner's.

ahzmort · Mar 22, 2011

Never seen Fringe.
I like the CSI shows sometimes, not too regularly though.
Mentalist is good, but don't see it often.
Now, on to Leverage. Awesome show. Probably my favorite show on right now. Excellent cast, not 1 character i don't like. My favorite is Parker. She's quirky & funny. And no, her being a pretty blonde has nothing to do with my decision.

Does anybody on here watch.....
