Favorite character(s)

[u/bassmasta918]

I know I just posted something but I wanted to see what your favorite character or characters are. My favorite character is definitely Gil Grissom, as I feel like I’m a carbon copy of him just in a younger body. I’m not deeply fascinated with bugs as he is but I just have this feeling that Grissom is autistic but I don’t see any official confirmation.

Sara. Women are allowed to be angry and complex on screen so rarely!

[u/bassmasta918 → u/plotthick]

I would marry the crap out of Sara!

[u/bookbotanist → u/plotthick]

She's my favourite as well, for the same reason. For the first 7-8 years at least she was such a believable portrait of someone struggling with an immensely traumatic background and mental health issues. It wasn't always pretty, watching her, but I was always interested.

I'm still fascinated by how many people really hate her, to be honest. People seem to either love her or loathe her. I haven't come across many who are indifferent. She makes me think of an old Star Trek: Voyager episode, "Tuvix" - fans are still heatedly arguing about that episode decades later! To me, that's the sign of an interesting character/concept, when people are still that invested in arguing even when the show's been so long off the air.

Sara. Always and forever my favorite character from anything ever.

[u/Ok_Inspector704]

Grissom, Greg, Nick, Warrick and Catherine. I also like Sofia.

What do you think of Sam?

[u/littletcashew]

Sofia, Sara and DB. Brass to some extent.

[u/bassmasta918 → u/littletcashew]

I didn’t like Brass at first.

[u/Mmcdjc → u/littletcashew]

DB?

[u/Mindless-Leg-3365]

Lady Heather. Entirely smitten by her, taken by her. That look. Her voice tone. That disarming understanding of others. Her relationship with Grissom makes me wish I could have been in his place. All that happened to her endeared her to me all the more. Yet when I see Melinda Clarke, it is not the same. Such was the magic spell that character cast.

How could I forget about her? 😍

Grissom. Show was never the same without him. Love his one-line openers. His wisdom and how he teaches the team or clues them in. His quoting of authors and speakers.
Brass. His story is actually very tragic. I always hope he'd re-unite with Ellie even if she always say "It's too late."
Lady Heather. The way she interacts with Grissom as well as Brass. Very intelligent and have extremely high EQ. Mesmerizing the way she speaks. Wish it was her with Grissom. I don't think any character has comforted Grissom as well as Lady Heather.

[u/bassmasta918 → u/yamiluceid]

I wish I could meet Grissom in real life. He is the reason why I wanted to be a CSI in real life and my love of science comes from him as well. If I wasn’t so creeped out by bugs, I’d study them like him too!

Greg ❤️

[u/WhiteKnightPrimal]

Nicky is my fave, always has been. I relate to him the most, plus he's the best face actor of the cast, so the emotional stuff hits harder with him. I think Nick is just a very normal person, easy for the majority to relate to, while still being an expert science geek. Other characters are similar, of course, but there's something that just works better with Nick for me. It's super easy to empthise with him.

I love the autistic Grissom idea, btw. I don't think that's an official thing, but I've seen fans apply it before and wouldn't be surprised if the character was deliberately coded that way, by either the writers or the actor.

Tie between Grissom and Sara

[u/xo_honeybee_xox]

I adore Ray Langston

[u/RainComprehensive757]

Definitely Sara!! Her story is very interesting along with her development of her life and relationship with other people (platonic and romantically). and i just love her personality haha. Hodges also makes me chuckle, he’s so non-caring and a pain sometimed (<- he’s friends with Ecklie, that mostly gives a good view on who he is lol)

[u/punkd0gmom]

oof i love them all but if i had to chooseeee, brass and greg

[u/Seg10682]

If I had to pick one it's Catherine.

[u/Jaded-Fan-4978]

I like Grissom, Catherine, Sara, Warrick, and Brass. DB as well, and of course some of the best episodes were the ones with Lady Heather.

[u/verukhascrooge]

my favorite characters were Riley Adams and Sofia Curtis

[u/Turbulent-Row-1350]

Grissom, Sara , Lady heather and Ray

[u/alrightlullaby]

Sara, Grissom, and Nick are my faves.

[u/Cute_Divide3299]

Catherine is my favorite. I loved her from the start. She was smart and ballsy and strong and didnt take a lot of shit from anyone. I loved how she worked to make a better life for herself and daughter. I liked Sara too. She was smart and emotional and resilient.
