CSI:NY Returns for 18 Episodes in Season 9

CBS has renewed CSI:NY for a ninth season as we know, but they are only ordering 18 episodes instead of 20 or the normal that is for most shows, 22.  Which is a real shame as another two episodes are needed for the show to reach the milestone of 200.

Whether or not CBS negotiates these two extra episodes, will still leave the show's future up in the air and most likely it will have to fight for a tenth season.  Perhaps CBS should consider not only the extra two episodes for season 9; so that it gets the necessary 200.  Goodness knows it has been through the wringer two years running and deserves a break, as do we fans.  Yet we deserve a tenth and final season for this much loved show without it having to be "on the bubble" for a third year.  Would it be third time lucky?

For too long, CSI:NY has been treated so poorly, as the 'poor man's relation' (spin off) to CSI, which is seen as the superior show to many.  Yet everyone has their own views and opinions on which one they prefer.  It's okay to watch both but you have to have a moan and groan when it is treated as if it shouldn't be around in the schedules at all by many.

I know it's a bit early to decide on such questions and the show's fate but it's good to get such things out in the open and subject to discussion to keep fans on their toes in readiness to take further action when or if the need arises.  A kind of call to arms to fight for the future of our fave CSI:NY when needed!

Here's looking forward to season 9, though we'll have to wait 'til next January.  Yeah, that's a big moan from me then!!
