How to write a CSI Episode

I am a huge CSI fan. Crime dramas and thrillers have always interested me, but CSI was the first show that highlighted the lab geeks, the scientists – how crimes get committed and solved over whodunnit. It was intriguing.

I’ve caught all the episodes of CSI from Season 1 to its current Season 9, as well as all 4.5 seasons of CSI:NY to date. I used to catch Super CSI Sundays on AXN which showed all 3 CSI shows back to back, which was what tuned me in to NY and Miami, but I’ve never been a big fan of Miami, because Horatio really annoys me, as does Callie’s pitchy voice, though I did grow to like the grittier New York version.

So all in all, that’s almost 200 episodes of CSI (199 now!) and just over 100 CSI:NY episodes (109 to be exact), hell that’s a lot of my life spent just watching CSI!

CSI is one of those trusty favourite shows you can count on. While new glitzy shows like Gossip Girl and Dirty Sexy Money come and go, sometimes thrilling, other times disappointing, you know that after a long day of work, you can always watch an episode of CSI and never really be disappointed.

CSI episodes usually fall back on a certain set formula, though from time to time they do spice things up with a different format to keep things interesting. Here’s what I’ve learnt, from my 300 episodes of CSI:

CSI NY 5×17 – Green Piece

 

Interesting case – environmental activists move up a notch to become environmental terrorists, and geeky Adam gets to be a hero! But most importantly for all Danny and Lindsay fans, they finally get hitched! Woot!

Heroes 3×18 – Exposed

Interesting… Heroes is actually… improving? Life goes on after the HRG centric episode last week – we see what happens to Claire and her new boy, and Sylar and his new boy too.

Heroes 3×17 – Cold Wars

Hello I’ve been away for a little while, so now it’s time to catch up on my tv! In this HRG-centric episode, we see how Noah Bennet gets embroiled in this whole new affair and what exactly his role is, and watch as the combination of 3 bumblers Matt, Peter and Mohinder self destruct.
