Editor's Note
The first of two spinoffs launched by the hugely popular television series CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, CSI: MIAMI introduces a new cast of crime fighters operating from a forensics lab unit in the tropical climes of southern Florida. David Caruso (NYPD BLUE) anchors the series as tortured homicide detective Horatio Caine, who leads an investigative team that includes Southern-belle ballistics expert, Calleigh Duquesne (Emily Procter); streetsmart tough guy, Tim Speedle (Rory Cochrane); underwater recovery expert, Eric Delko (Adam Rodriguez); no-nonsense coroner, Alexx Woods (Khandi Alexander); and short-lived DNA specialist, Megan Donner (Kim Delaney, who departed after only 10 episodes). While sharing its parent show's penchant for grisly crime reenactments, the spinoff places greater emphasis on police work, rather than science, and boasts a flashier cinematographic style that befits its sunkissed and stylish Miami locale. This collection presents every episode from the series' debut season.

"The return of NYPD BLUE exile David Caruso to a leading role proves he can do unsmiling, untrustworthy intensity like few others..." 03/01/2005 p.138 |
