  Could Be Better January 1, 2009 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
We are huge CSI fans and I found part 1, season 8 really was disappointing after the usual quality. The build up to saving Sara Sidle was little disappointing, it could have been better.br /br /Many of the story lines are weak, with a good story toward the end. The episode where Sara Sidle leaves is good as is the story line which crosses both CSI and Without A Trace is the best on the disk.br /It was too short as well, so value for money just isn't there. This isn't reflected in the price (thankfully we picked it up on sale before Christmas for a little over 10, but the price has since jumped back up again) There are some bonus features including a Without A Trace Episode, one episode with commentary, a feature on Sara Sidle's departure and also a special director (which is relevant to season 8 part 2 not part 1). br /br /The final episode on the disk is terrible and it is really disapointing to end with it. It may have been an attempt to do somthing 'light' after Sara leaves but I found it really hard to sit through.br /br /I am hoping part 2 will be a lot better. Wishing I waited for the release of the Season 8 Box Set.
  A missed chance to stop in time December 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I sincerely think that CSI Vegas should have ended with season 7 (as was intended several years ago, if I am not wrong). It has been my favourite show for years, but now I know by heart all those things that made it so interesting in the previous seasons. The cases went down from dull to average, and what's worse, there's no more living beings among the characters, just marionettes (swab - a drop of liquid - pink - blood!) Well, maybe with the exception of Hodges, who is quite unexpectedly quite human (just not in a very pleasant way), and maybe Grissom, but that's only due to William Petersen I think. The show gets more and more stale and repetitive, and "finding Sara" is just a bland shadow of "finding Nick" a couple of years ago.br /br /Anyway, I would have given it three, maybe even four stars, I still watch CSI Vegas, maybe out of habit, maybe keeping some hope to get something interesting again. Unfortunately this is a review not only of the show, but also of the DVD box set. Hence the two stars. One of the pleasures to watch DVD is that you are saved from ads. Not so there. Whenever you launch any of the discs, you are forced to watch an extremely long, extremely noisy, stupid and irritating Kia promotion roll. (Or maybe it's me who is stupid, for I did not manage to find a way to skip it.) Myself, I drive a Nissan, but I am not fanatic about the brand, I might buy almost any car when time comes. But now I swear I shall never, ever buy a Kia. It almost makes me sick to see a Kia in the street (not that often thankfully).
  Short but still brilliant September 29, 2008 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Whilst the Writers' Strike left this season feeling a little empty, the quality of the show continues to shine through. The conclusion to the Sara Saga is excellently pulled off and will certainly bring a tear to the eye of the most faithful CSI fan. Some of the episodes are a bit poor - such as the story of the young lad who develops breasts - but these are balanced out by the other episodes.br /br /Shame there's not as many episodes as there normally are but worth the purchase all the same.
  CSI September 23, 2008 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I was really looking forward to season 8 after season 7s cliffhanger episode. But I have to say I was really disapointend with it. It's not the fact that the series was cut short, it's the fact that the storylines were utter rubbish. This series could have be released on 1 box set but it hasn't so this makes it a total rip off. I shall not be tuning in for series 9 of CSI.
  Another great season, however suffered due to the writer's strike! August 6, 2008 17 out of 22 found this review helpful
Season 8 of CSI picks up directly where Season 7 concluded, with Sara Sidle trapped under a car in the Nevada Dessert, making for a thrilling season opener. The second episode features the team coming to grips with Grissom and Sara's relationship, however not such a good episode in my opinion. Ep 3, "From Hell", is another strange yet brilliant episode. Ep 4 follows the story of a boy found hanging off a tree with mutilated breasts. Episode five, even though it lacks Grissom, is fantastic. Ep 6 is a fantastic crossover with "Without a Trace". Episode seven, we bid farewell to Sara. Episode 8 is a funny episode focusing on the lab rats once again. Episode nine sees Warrick framed for murder. Episode 10 sees illegal dog fighting. A man is killed by a bull in ep 11. And the team fight the flu in ep 12.br /br /All in all, twelve fantastic episodes.br /However it does have it's bad points:br /1. The total disappearance of Louise Lombard's character after episode 1.br /2. The amount of episodes that hardly feature Grissom at all.br /3. The fact that the season only had 17 episodes, leaving Volume 2 dvd with five episodes.
