CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
CSI is an innovative, new type of crime drama in which the characters use cutting-edge forensic tools to examine the evidence to solve the case. Rather than a 'whodunnit' cop show (investigating witnesses / suspects), CSI explores the 'howdunnit'. CSI has been the number one scripted series in the Nielsen ratings for three years running. This is the first of 3 CSI series. AKA: CSI Las Vegas
Show Update
CBS Developing New 'CSI' Spin Off On Cyber Crimes
CBS is milking the CSI franchise again, as the network has just announced that they will be returning to the hit franchise for another spin-off, this time focusing on cyber-crime. Instead of focusing the new spin-off in a new locale, as they have with previous spin-offs. The potential series will center around Avery Ryan, Special Agent in Charge at the Cyber Crime Division of the FBI in Quantico, Va. Agent Ryan will make her debut in an episode of the original CSI set to air later this season.
