'King Baby' and 'Big Middle' Weekly Review Round-Up

February sweeps is over, and as usual, reviewers around the internet have a wide range of takes on CSI's last two episodes, "King Baby" and "Big Middle". Here are their takes.

• "King Baby" may have been a ratings success, but Sobell, of Television Without Pity, thought the episode was only worthy of a D. You can read her snarky report here.

• TV Tome's Ki's Empire, however, found the episode much more refreshing:

  "King Baby has been called by some CSI fans online, "the best of the season so far", while I disagree with this statement I will say it was an intriguing, solid episode, with a good plot and also some good moments for our characters."

  Ki's Empire gave the episode a B. You can read her review here.

• TV Guide's Rochell Thomas may have been laughing too hard to pay much attention to King Baby":

  "I thought the Plushies conference was weird, but now I have seen everything. When Grissom popped open the secret door to that Wacko Jacko, playroom I was with Warrick, who said, "Get outta here." And when the clerk at the crazier-than-thou Forever Baby store asked Grissom, "Are you a drinker or a stinker?" it was all over. I rolled. Literally. I can barely type it without laughing. I mean, somebody please tell me there is no land of Baby Hueys where adult men live like infants. 'Cause I can't handle that. I can't."
