David Caruso's acting is like watching cheeze sweat.

....I find it interesting that out of the 3 spin offs "CSI Miami" is the worst, mainly due to Caruso's acting. This is a show, like its star, David Caruso, that sharply divides critics.
Last time, Vanity Fair's James Wolcott took a swipe at Caruso's "macho-moron empath perversion of the Dirty Harry mystique," along with his "overstated understated acting" — a judgment with which I had to concur based on the number of times I have heard David Caruso's voice delivering line readings as if he were suffering through a supremely boring script read-through.
David Caruso; His body language, abetted by baroque Leading Man camera angles — he's often photographed from somewhere around his ankles, as if he were a human lighthouse — is as mannered as his delivery.
Caruso moves slower and talks slower than anyone on television. He cocks his head in ways that would give most people a crick in their neck....
