Hello World!
Tra la, it's May, the lusty month of television sweeps. Which invariably means twice the sex and death of any regular month of television-watching. And I'm having my annual "series finale" dilemma.
Ever since La Femme Nikita, Star Trek: Voyager and Xena: Warrior Princess all ended their runs with episodes that I found painful to watch, I think twice before watching any series' concluding episode. Will there be gratuitous character killings? Will all the wrong couples end up together? Probably.
This year the crisis focuses on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Dawson's Creek. The WB is happily running ads touting a character death on the latter, and I can't even keep track of the number of characters who've died on Buffy only to un-die later; that show must rival Star Trek in that regard. But this time any death will probably stick.
To watch or not to watch? I can't decide...

Tonight at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time, CBS will show "Tinder Box" on CSI Miami. Here's the official synopsis of the episode:
Speedle and Delko are present when a trendy nightclub catches fire, apparently from a deejay's pyrotechnics display, killing 16 people and injuring dozens of others. But the ensuing investigation reveals it may have been arson to cover up a murder. Also: Horatio probes the death of a prostitute who is found dead in a judge's bathroom in his home.
On TNN at 11:00 p.m. Eastern Time tonight, you can catch a rerun of the CSI episode "Organ Grinder":
The CSI team is called in when a famous real estate entrepreneur is found dead in a hotel elevator. When the body of Bob Fairmont, the real estate developer, is found, the team discovers that the crime scene has been tampered with and that the victim has been re-dressed. After tracing the cause of death to a lethal poison, the team is shocked to discover that Fairmont's organs have already been removed and donated, making the case a bit more difficult to solve.
Thursday night at 9:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the CSI episode "Play With Fire" will air. The official synopsis states:
A woman's body is discovered in a small press box at a high-school football field, apparently the victim of strangulation. The evidence leads investigators to two convicts, one of whom is still in prison. At the crime lab, an explosion destroys key evidence and leaves Greg and Sara injured.
