Any time you put a cast like this in compromising circumstances or shake it up a little bit, I think we're all pretty close so we draw on real emotion.
Hm, I think I always had respect for the profession, my dad was a district attorney back home for over 20 years, so I had that going in.
I find it more interesting though how you apply the science. The gadgets are the icing on the case to make you look cool!
I have a Lab, it's fun to hang out and hike with the dog, people come up to him, and pet him, it's fun.
I love what I do and I love the fans.
I think I'll give it up, the fantasy is over, I wanted to play Spiderman, Peter Parker.
I think I'm a fan of people who were brave, my aunt, my grandmother, those are my heroes.
I think my character's getting to the point where he can't even eat spaghetti with red sauce anymore, where he has horrible nightmares, he can't sleep anymore.
I think what's always been interesting to me than the science and the criminality with this job is what happens to your persona, your disposition, after day in and day out dealing with life and death.
I was the graveyard shift in a plastics plant in Texas. It was like being a vampire.
I work so hard for the fans who watch our show.
I'm interested to go other places, I've been the boy in the bubble since we've been shooting, I need to go travel a little bit, see where the action is, other than going to see family, of course.
I'm just trying to let everything lie and grow right now, I'm not going to pressure myself to do anything that it's right for the time.
I've been trying to pick up painting but it's hard.
I've done a few television movies.
I've seen a dead body, I've seen some pretty gruesome fist fights, I've been a hunter since I was a child, though I don't anymore, I've gutted wild game.
It looks easy, like surfing, but surfing is hard too.
It's about forensics, about getting the bad guy, and about taking care of business.
It's never been about cash for me.
Most of my stuff before CSI was kind of the jerk boyfriend, so I thought this was one of those deals, where these two have a thing going on, so we had a scene where they make out.
No, there are some location shoots in Vegas, maybe four trips a year. It's shot in Santa Clarita, CA.
One lady wrote me and told me how she wants to see me get beat up and near death and that kind of stuff.
People on TV shows, they can tell - they know that you know who they are.
That was the great thing about Grissom's character - he never acted like the boss.
That's what makes our show special - the unspoken communication.
The show has boundaries right now we're trying to widen them not break them.
There are a lot of times that if a detail in a scene or a beat, feels unnatural, they'll allow me to explore another direction to go until we're all comfortable with what we are doing.
There are other shows where you can watch married women cheat on their husbands - you can get that somewhere else.
To be honest with you, I get a little fed up with actors who act crazy to make themselves more interesting.
We don't want to bore our audience.
We give each other a hard time, but no pranks.
George's Golden Retriever, Maverick, was used in the CSI: Crime Scene Investigation episode "Dog Eat Dog".
In November 2006, George revealed that when he first started working on CSI, the scenes of the dead gave him recurring nightmares. He revealed that in one bad dream, there was blood spattering everywhere, no screams - just silence - and huge block letters spelling DOA.
It was during his college years at Texas Tech that he began to think about pursuing an acting career. "I mentioned it to my mother one day while I was in college, and she said she thought it was a pretty good idea," he says. "I was close to finishing school, so she wanted me to complete that so I would have something to fall back on."
He's nominated for TV Teen Choice Actor 2006.
When he arrived in Los Angeles, he could only drive during the day because the truck he borrowed from his step dad had two broken headlights (after landing his role on Savannah, Eads bought a new truck).
When he was a college student he worked nights at a hamburger joint. One night two guys came in and put a gun against his forehead. He used this experience as inspiration when a gun was held to his head in the CSI episode Who Are You.
While he was out of town co-star Eric Szmanda stayed in his house to house sit and look after his dog Maverick.
George is the proud uncle to Coleman and Marshall.
One of the jobs George had before his acting career was that of a copy machine salesman.
George owns a Golden Retriever, which he named Maverick.
George has a sister named Angela Eads Tekell who resides in Waco, Texas and is an attorney.
In season 5 of CSI, George had to shave his head do to hair problems from the filming of Evel Knievel.
At one time George held a job in a gym putting away weights and cleaning.
George graduated in 1985 from Belton High School in Belton, Texas.
Member of Phi Delta Theta's Texas Epsilon Chapter, Texas Tech University.
