Just for the line "No signs of sexual trauma."

I was ROTFLMAO!!

I love Doc Robbins & Phillips!!! Brass was awesome too!

After the serious and harder hitting emotionally charged previous episodes it was nice to have a more 'fun' episode in which the many sub characters get to show their comedy chops. There were many LOL moments. I loved that the music echoed the 'Unsolved Mysteries' theme during the 'flashback' sequences. I never liked Hodges know it all attitude and the cast has great moments in calling him out. It spoofs CSI and all the other mystery TV shows quite well.

I liked this episode. The idea of engaging the Lab Rats in a game is pretty cool. Archie is killed in an explosion right away and my heart sunk, until I saw what was happening. Hodges is nerd nut with illusions of grandeur. He sets up a board game and gets others to participate. This is well and good, but at times the thing uses a scattergun approach. It may be an episode to watch again to get the sequencing down. I do love creativity. The way the Doc and the others were used as pawns is funny and new.

In a day of few work, David Hodges invites Wendy and proposes to his co-worker in the lab to resolve murders as if they were CSI investigators and she tells that she is thinking of taking CSI filed test. Other colleagues join them while Hodges provides murder scenarios and test results from the evidences in a murder game.

"You Kill Me" may be an original episode of "CSI", but it is also silly and annoying. David Hodges is a non-charismatic character and his "Lab Rats" game is pretentious. The comedy does not work well in a crime series with scientific basis. My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "You Kill Me"

I give this an "A" for "originalty" but only a "C-minus" for content. It just isn't that involving an episode, because there are too many factors involved in too many cases.

All of the crime stories in here are "what if" stuff, made, as it turns out, to be in the form of a CSI table game that "Hodges" is inventing. He creates scenarios in which various CSI "lab rats" are knocked off. The idea is to why out the answers to the two basic questions: "who did it, and how?" Most of this is played for humor but I found very few laughs in here. I've never found the "lab rates" - Hodges, Wendy, Archie, Mandy, Bobby, Henry, etc., to be particularly good comics, only weird, unrealistic CSI "scientists." Thus, for the most part, with three or four different cases presented with new clues every 15 seconds, it wasn't an entertaining episode in which you get involved with what's going on.

However, despite saying the above, I did enjoy the last segment when Grissom sits down with Hodges and says, "I like games." He's asked to try and figure out another hypothetical crime, this one in which Hodges gets shot in the middle of the forehead at the lab. That part is pretty cool, with a few funny scenes to it.

Overall, half good/half terrible. Hodges (Wallace Langham) did an excellent job as the creator of this game and the host of the show, to to speak.
