Of all the unpleasant things I've seen on CSI and the other shows I'm addicted to, there is one thing I really wish I could unsee: emergency c-section on a dead woman in last night's show. But it was a pleasant surprise to see a more realistic depiction on TV of teen pregnancy. It's not romantic. It's not easy. It's not fun. It doesn't guarantee a good or lasting relationship between the parents, or that your peers will be impressed or fuss over you.
I also wish that I could unhear Doc Robbins saying, "It felt good to help the living for once." Fuck! When a medical examiner (or anyone else) helps to secure justice for the dead, they are doing an essential service for the living, too.
