What's with CSI?

So I'm watching the latest episode of CSI (the original version of course) with my 14 year old son. Not only have they completely faked a crime scene to arrest a fake suspect to lure the real suspect in a similar crime out of hiding... (sounds a bit far fetched, yes, and CSI:Las Vegas seems to be heading down the incredulous path that Miami and NY have gone), but the end up not being able to prosecute because the D.A. couldn't figure out the ruse. Hey, D.A., one scene was real, the other was faked. Defense attorney was right, though, try proving to a jury that the real evidence IS real.

I'm getting off track. I could go on and on and on about the CSI shows and their flaws. Now my background may lead me to find itty bitty and major flaws in the program, but it should at least be able to pull off the gag on a 14 year old, right? So here we are watching, and the CSIs are trying to link the suspect to a residence that has been cleaned. They notice a missing pillow and surmise that the suspect may have slept on the couch. A quick tape lift of the couch yields many, many long hairs (head hairs, apparently). The CSI's are bummed because the suspect is about to be released without further evidence and it will take way to long to sort through all those hairs. My 14 year old turns to me and says, "Why would they be looking for hairs anyway, the guy is bald". He's right. The guy is bald. Totally bald.

Hey CSI: the 14 year olds aren't buying it anymore. You're about done.
