Murder, and its tale-telling aftermath, is the compelling subject of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. Since it premiered on CBS on October 6, 2000, CSI was a ratings triumph, spawning a spinoff (CSI: Miami) and positioning itself for long-term success. As the first season demonstrates, creator Anthony Zuiker’s foolproof formula was established early on, bolstered by a fine ensemble cast and requiring minimal tweaking as the season progressed; its Las Vegas-based “criminalists” eventually became “CSI” steeped in the scientific minutiae of forensic investigation, but the series arrived essentially intact, with an irresistible (and seemingly inexhaustible) supply of corpses and the mysteries that surround them. Influenced by the graphic precedent of movies like Seven and Kiss the Girls, CSI matches morbidity with dispassionate methodology; viewers are so fascinated by the investigative process that they’re unfazed by intimate autopsies and internal (i.e., digitally animated) views of traumatized flesh, bone, and sinew.
While keeping abreast of cutting-edge technologies, CSI combines the ingenuity (and fallibility) of villains with the appealing humanity of its heroes. CSI director and entomologist Gil Grissom (played by series coproducer William Petersen) is introverted but ethically intense; he’s both mentor and moral compass for his night-shift team, including a former stripper-turned-CSI (Marg Helgenberger); a recovering gambler (Gary Dourdan); an eager ace (George Eads) with room for improvement; a workaholic (Jorja Fox) who can’t always remain emotionally detached from her cases; and a chief detective (Paul Guilfoyle) who’s a necessary link to police procedure. Like The X-Files, CSI supports its characters with feature-film production values, employing a Rashomon structure that turns murder into a progressively accurate study of cause and effect. Script quality is consistently high (”Blood Drops” and “Unfriendly Skies” are exceptional), direction is slick and sophisticated, and the mysteries are complex enough to invite multiple viewings. Despite a regrettable shortage of DVD features, CSI’s inaugural season remains addictively worthy of its lofty reputation. –Jeff Shannon

- A game-changing show
It is hard to understate the effect “CSI” had on television - one need only see how many spinoff and imitating series have appeared on TV since its debut. “CSI” features a great ensemble cast - all the actors are good, but together they are superb - who play characters that are each unique and uniquely human. The stories are compelling yet believable, occasionally throwing the characters into an ethical or moral dilemma. Many say “The Sopranos” was the greatest show of our generation, and that may … Read More

- great stories, overly gory
Love the interesting stories and the characters; plots, pacing, and suspense are all great; but the series is overly gory, ER is mild in comparison. That’s one reason I like the dvds so well, I can fastforward right through the gory parts, plus miss the commercials; or rather, I don’t miss them. Like the fact that the film stars in this series don’t consider it beneath them to do a tv series. The mix of personality is good in this, would probably like a little more love interest stories added to … Read More

- Christ, What a Dumb Show…
Okay, CSI is such a standard show, it’s really hard to watch. But everyone seems to love it, including my moronic neighbors who rag on The X-Files and love CSI. Stop right there, folks.
The X-Files was a gem, at least through season 6. But even the bad seasons are better than CSI. All three of these shows are bad, with NY being slightly redeemed by Gary Sinise, but the show is so uninspired and tries so hard to be gruesome that I just have to feel sorry for it.
Last time I checked, detectives … Read More
