Dramatic Pause

1995_showgirls_003.jpgBig news in TV land over the weekend; Elizabeth Berkley, a.k.a. Jesse Spano, has been signed on as a recurring character on "C.S.I. Miami." She's been tapped to play Horatio's (David Caruso) ex-wife.

We caught up with Caruso, and asked him how he felt about the casting decision. Here's what he said:

Caruso (removes sunglasses for dramatic affect): Berkley? Is that ... the woman ... who ... fucked a stripper ... pole ... in Showgirls? (puts on sunglasses for dramatic affect) The verdict ... is in: She's ... hot. (removes sunglasses for dramatic affect). I'd ... hit that ... I'd love to ... be her ... A.C. Slater. (puts on sunglasses for dramatic affect). I'll be in ... my trailer ... if you ... need ... anything ... (removes sunglasses for dramatic affect) else.

Dramatic Pause: A beat or two of silence with no dialogue and little or no music/background sound. Usually done to heighten the anticipation before the reveal.

Anything that references the sheer fucking batshit lunacy that is Caruso just makes me smile.

Bless you sir.

This ...casting...sucks *YAAAAAAAAAAHHH... won't get fooled again*

This nails it, CSI:Miami is Police Squad:The Next Generation.

Berkeley is a blonde. HoCaine does only get his rocks off with Latinas. Maybe Caruso casted her HIMSELF ( in his trailer?) like he did it with LaRue.
