You know, looking back over Monday’s post about CBS and Moonves, it occurs to me that, when CBS first announced C.S.I. New York and I (along with, I’m sure, the vast majority of the audience) thought, “Oh great, another New York cop show?” — I started thinking about what other cities would be a better, more original choice. Cities with great character but that don’t appear too often on weekly television series. Cities like Seattle, or Austin, or Savannah…

Or New Orleans.

In hindsight, that would have been unfortunate.

The sheer number of links I could put up to prove his point* is staggering. Honestly, it’s hard to read or watch the news without wanting to punch somebody.

* You all know where to look, I’m sure.
