Horatio is my favorite character but I notice not a lot of people like him, in fact many despise him. Other than the cheesy lines and the sunglasses, is there anything worthy of being slammed about him?

What annoys me is his tendency to take over from SWAT, bombsquad, DEA, border patrol, customs, coast guard....he isn't a one man army that can break the law whenever he wishes. If he wants to go gunslinging all the time he should transfer back to PD and not stay at CSI. It's not CSI's job to apprehend people and storm buildings, even though the Miami CSI's are attached to the PD and hence are also police officers (like the NY ones and unlike the Vegas ones who are civilians).

I never really thought about it like that. I guess Horatio's problem is that he is trying to fix everything. I still love him but I think I'm going to look at him differently.

I used to dislike his insane cheesiness and cliched character, but now I love it. I looove watching season two and cracking up every time he makes some horrible pun or says something cheesy. XD It's great.

I don't really know about Horatio. Sometimes he annoys me, but I sometimes like him too. For me Horatio is the kind of character you'd like to hate, but cannot.

I voted don't care. In the first season he irritated me a lot, but right now I can accept him and I like him in a few episodes. Like Aidoann said, I would like to hate him, but I can't.

This sums up exactly how I feel about Horatio. Despite his cheese, I like him because he cares. He goes that extra mile when it comes to children which is an endearing characteristic. I think the pilot episode really underlined that important quality in Horatio. In the pilot he was so good with the little girl. Sadly, I often find his tone of voice incredibly annoying. We know his caring side is there because we see it, but more often than no has no emotion in his voice which bugs me.

What I dislike about Horatio, besides his cheesyness, is mostly the gunslinging. I've only just started to watch the show, but before it seemed like in every preview he had his gun out. He's a CSI.
The other problem I have is his voice. It sounds so monotone and it just annoys me. I can deal with him as a character because he's really good with kids, which I like.

I like Horatio, that's why I was interested in Miami in the first place, because he drew me there!
