Does anyone else find Patricia Arquette annoying? Her whinny nasally monotone voice is the same in every scene of everything she's done. I tried to watch CSI: Cyber but couldn't. She can't get the credibility factor with me. I liked her in Medium, but mediums are by definition kind of flaky and weird.

Yes, but not as annoying as the scripts. I expect that you too shout at the TV when they get tech stuff wrong.

Word is that there will be a TV movie next season to wrap up loose ends on the show.

I do not find Patricia Arquette annoying. Admittedly, I don't have much to go on. I apparently have seen her in only one television show, a single episode of LawnOrder, SVU, and I don't remember any annoyance. I thought she did such a great job in Holes, very enjoyable.

I like Arquette a lot. Based, I admit, by her acting in Medium, not CSI Cyber. I like Peter MacNichol a lot. Based, I admit, by his acting in Num3ers, not in CSI Cyber. I realize those are just parts I liked, but they were good parts made even better by idiosyncratic acting by idiosyncratic actors given something to work with. What I'm not liking is how boring the writers/directors are making the tech that is the heart of CSI Cyber (the actors are bringing to largely written-in-paint-by-numbers-style CSI-style characters what they can). I avoided the other CSIs because of focii on gore closeups in the guise of science & characters both annoying & boring at the same time. I may drop Cyber just from boredom.
