[more] Character builder Sarah Nicholson June 21, 2006 The Courier Mail GEORGE Eads doesn't have to think too hard when asked about his most memorable CSI episode. The native Texan quickly responds it was the double instalment directed by Quentin Tarantino which saw Eads' character Nick Stokes buried alive in a Perspex coffin, but the episode doesn't stand out in Eads' mind for the reasons you might think. [more] Harsh justice appeals to forensic fighter By Bridget McManus May 18, 2006 The Age George Eads' role in CSI has inspired some radical views about crime and punishment. SIX years filming CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has chipped away at actor George Eads' faith in humanity. As forensic scientist Nick Stokes, he has pieced together the clues lurking in the blood-spattered aftermath of the most heinous of crimes. He has delved into the minds of murderers, rapists, child molesters and sadistic sexual fetishists. As George Eads, he is angry with what he says is a flawed US justice system. He supports the death penalty but not lengthy appeals processes ("The quicker, the better"), and is all for making the punishment fit the crime. [more] CSI star brushing with death Thursday 19 January, 2006 Rebecca Barry New Zealand Herald George Eads' voice lowers dramatically when asked about the upcoming series of CSI. We're in for "something horrible", he says, as if the gore wasn't harrowing enough already. "Gross", "hideous", "godforsaken", agree CSI fans on the internet. What could possibly be worse than the previous season finale when his character Nick Stokes was locked in a glass coffin?

(As the show's Miami and New York spinoffs demonstrate.) But
you can't take Las
Vegas out of "CSI" -- at least not when
it's time for the season opener. by Rochell D. Thomas 16 June 2005 TV Guide Usually, when an actor learns that his character is going to be buried and covered with fire ants, he has a few questions: "Buried? Live ants? On my body?" But not CSI's George Eads. When the actor read that his character, Nick Stokes, would be kidnapped by an angry father and buried alive in the show's season finale, Eads says, "I pretty much kept my mouth shut. I gave [guest director] Quentin Tarantino no calls. The producers? No calls. The way the whole season started... I just wasn't asking." [more] What Eads Heard While In The Box: 'Your Mom's Watching You Die' Entertainment Tonight May 2005 [taken from CSI Files] When the lid was first shut on George Eads while filming Nick Stokes' coffin scenes in "Grave Danger," the actor didn't expect to be able to hear from the crew again until after his scene was done. It's not hard to imagine his shock when he suddenly heard Quentin Tarantino's voice coming through the ventilation tube. [more] Interview with George about 'Grave Danger' CBS Official Site 'Well really, when I first heard that Quentin was gonna direct the episode, uhm...I wasn't that shocked, only because I saw him at the Golden Globes and he had said what a fan he was of the show. And I was shocked then. Then about, uhm, I guess it was almost a year and a half later, uhm, we get the news that he wants to direct. Uhm, so that wasn't as shocking to me, uhm, as much as that he wrote it.' [more] |

[more] George Eads Gets 'Evel' Entertainment Tonight July 29, 2004 Extreme sports legend EVEL KNIEVEL is in the Guiness Book of World Records for having broken 35 bones during his daring motorcycle career, which included a 150-foot long jump over the fountains at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in 1968, and clearing 50 cars stacked four deep at the Los Angeles Coliseum in 1973.

Paloucek The Montana Standard Ex-‘CSI' star Eads fleshes out an unforgettable '70s icon It's no mean feat to play Evel Knievel, but as someone who's comfortable at the wheel of a lot of horsepower, George Eads felt he was a natural for the part of the thrill icon. [more] IT CSI [Certifiable Sexy Individual] Entertainment Weekly Studio 23 Interview Studio 23 2003 Studio 23 has a chance to interview George Eads (Nick Stokes) of CSI with the help of the dynamic PR Writer of ABS-CBN Ms. Amy Mosura, who herself is a self-confess[ed] CSI fanatic. [more] A Conversation with George Eads (Shorty Austin) TNT Q: How did you get involved in this project? A: I knew about this project early on, and I read for it while doing CSI. I really liked the script and the character of Shorty. After I read and didn't hear back, I tried not to think too much more about it, though I really wanted to do it. While I was in Montreal doing another film, Tom called and pressed upon me how much he wanted me to do the project. We talked about it for about 45 minutes. When I was a kid we played cowboys, which is actually what we're doing here, so it's been a lifelong dream to do this. [more] Crime Time Meet the good ol' boy of 'C.S.I.' 02 May 2002 By Liane Bonin Entertainment Weekly George Eads explains why the show's high-tech investigations lack guts He picks at stiffs as crime solver Nick Stokes on ''C.S.I.'' (CBS, Thursday 9 p.m.), and George Eads, 35, is no softy off-screen, either. EW.com talked to the Texas native about the new ''C.S.I.'' spin-off (fans will get their first peek at the David Caruso series during a crossover ''C.S.I.'' episode May 9), why he occasionally butts heads with the show's writers, and why Nick has dated his last hooker. [more] Esprit de Corpse People Magazine June 4 2001 Steve Dougherty & Frank Swertlow Playing a forensics sleuth on CSI, George Eads finds his grim TV role guarantees him bloodcurdling dreams When a villain pointed a gun at his character's head in a recent CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, George Eads didn't play the scene like a typically stoic TV tough guy. Instead, as the Las Vegas forensics unit's gung ho investigator Nick Stokes, he reacted the way a real victim might: whimpering and begging for his life. For inspiration Eads drew on his own terrifying experience more than a decade ago, when he was a college student working nights at a Dallas hamburger joint. [more] Yahoo! Chat, 10 May 2001 Transcript of George's chat with fans [linked from 'Elyse's CSI Site'] George Eads, 'C.S.I' Thursday 12 October, 2000 Cheryl Klein Zap2it.com "C.S.I.: Crime Scene Investigation," CBS' new drama about a Las Vegas forensics unit, is one slick show. Thanks in part to executive producer Jerry Bruckheimer, the series boasts special effects reminiscent of "Three Kings" - bullets ricocheting inside a chest cavity, hair shafts waving their follicles incriminatingly. Add noir-ish flashbacks and the occasional raven-haired stripper and, well, a little rough-around-the-edges charm would be a welcome contrast. [more] |
