jokovic-stanco Mr.Caruso's character in this show appeared to function mostly as a bureaucratic overseer of the other C.S.I.investigators (do they need a ramrod to make them work?), rather than doing any scientific tests himself, as the Gil Grissom character does in the original C.S.I.. As Horatio Caine has been presented as a policeman and not a scientist, I don't see how they will correct this problem easily. The lab work in the original C.S.I. is always central to the show--in C.S.I.:Miami it's perfunctory, at best. The sense of driving curiosity that powers the original C.S.I. plots and keeps their investigators using scientific methods to nibble at the presented puzzle also seems to be missing. This reviewer isn't opposed to "touchy-feely-I'm-just-going-with-my-intuition" type shows, but those type of police shows abound. That isn't what C.S.I.is about.If, as is customary on TV, the premier episode of this show is the best and strongest one they have to offer, this reviewer is depressed at its limpness. The qualities that functioned well as a single episode of the original C.S.I. have been stretched too thin here to succeed. Most of this can be corrected. The writing needs to be tighter and much more focused. While the cases presented don't have to be as odd as finding scuba divers in trees, more imagination should be shown. Note to the show writers: View past episodes of the original C.S.I.. Get back to your original idea of the show's nature.

ma-cortes This show by creators Ann Donahue , Carol Mendelsohn , Anthony E. Zuiker describes the hard-working assignments carried out by the Miami-Dade , Florida police department's Crime Scene Investigations unit led by Horatio Caine (David Caruso , this role is loosely based upon LAPD bomb squad technician Detective John Haynes) , a former homicide detective who makes friendly connections with his staff . Horatio becomes emotionally involved in cases and often offers pointed quotations to illustrate his reaction . Horatio usually confronts to superior agents of other agencies (FBI, NSA...) whom make a pact with criminals to get their particular benefits . He leads firmly a group of investigators who work crimes amid sunny landscapes , cultural crossroads and surroundings of Miami . His team includes the ballistics expert Calleigh Duquesne (Emily Procter) , Eric Delko (Adam Rodríguez) , Speedle (Rory Cochrane) , Ryan Wolfe (Jonathan Togo) , among others . The expert investigators use the best scientific and technical methods to resolve enigmas , analyze the evidence to resolve the killings and detain delinquents to vindicate justice , utilizing complex analysis and the occasional leap in logic . At the conclusion of each case the culprits almost always confess their guilt to investigators that would most assuredly not be the people interviewing them . This exciting series formed by 232 episodes packs thrilling reconstructions , a moving atmosphere by means of shaky camera , real investigations , and excellent action scenes in a really dynamic style . Of all the actors who have appeared , only David Caruso and Emily Procter have been seen in every segment from the beginning . The action moments are compactly made and fast moving CSI producers and CBS agreed to create this spin-off series in the hope of being the first to copy the original CSI series . In real life the Miami-Dade Police Department's crime scene processing unit is called the "Crime Scene Investigations Bureau (CSIB)", but technicians do not conduct laboratory testing and Miami-Dade Police Department has a separate ; in addition , the CSIB's so not perform most of the tasks depicted on the series . Bureau that operates the Miami-Dade Crime Lab, also the CSIB's are not detectives . While the majority of the techniques and technologies used in the CSI shows are accurate and true to reality , the writers and crew readily admit that they "time cheat" , tests that take seconds in the show often take days or even weeks in real life . While all the fly-over shots , skylines and city scrapers really are of Miami , Florida , any beach scenes during the series were filmed at Manhattan Beach , a suburb of Los Angeles and the building used for the CSI headquarters is actually the FAA Credit Union In Hawthorne . And several beach scenes have been shot in Miami-Dade , Broward, and Palm Beach counties . In most exterior scenes giving an appearance that it just rained , it could be to set the mood and imply the humidity of Florida .There are nice actors who play these notorious characters , they are are the followings : 1- CSI Miami is headed by Horatio Caine splendidly performed by David Caruso , he has a long curriculum , as he worked in N.Y. before moving to Miami for years . As a newcomer, he joined the Bomb Squad for a few months , and subsequently to head the CSI team but created a rivalry with Stetler , who was transferred to Internal Affairs . Horatio has a younger brother, who died in active service while under cover in a drug cartel , years later Caine discovered that Ray was alive and working for the Secret Service . The implication of Caine in the cases he investigates and his personal problems often disrupt his job , but he's always in control and taciturn . 2- Calleigh Duquesne is lively performed by Emily Procter , a bilingual Southern beauty with a specialty in ballistics ; she also processes scenes and analyzes cases alongside her colleagues . However , being removed from a case when her father (John Heard) is the prime suspect in a murder , despite her desire to work it . 3- The professional investigator Eric Delko well played by Adam Rodríguez , he is the only cast member to be of Cuban descent . He was an underwater recovery expert who knows all the twists and turns of the Florida waterways , and subsequently hired by Horatio . Delko has visions of Speedle at crime scenes and soon discovers that someone in the department is using his credit card . 4- Rory Cochrane plays pretty well as Tim Speedle , a cocky yet disarming investigator who is well connected on the Street . He feels guilty for the dead cop that he had attempted to protect but could not . Died 2004 , his death was due to poor gun maintenance, he was shot by an assailant after his gun fails to fire , it was after the second time that Speed had a gun that misfired . 5- Alexx Woods , the no-nonsense, know-it-all coroner finely interpreted by Kandi Alexander . She plays a hard-working and intelligent medical examiner rounding out the team and making autopsy to those who often cannot speak for themselves . 6- And , after Speedle is killed in action , former Patrolman Ryan Ryan Wolfe rightly acted by Jonathan Togo joins the team , he is introduced as a cop working who responds to the crime science where he speaks with Horatio Caine in regards to the case . Furthermore , the beautiful Eva LaRue efficiently played Natalia Boa and Rex Linn as Frank Tripp , a tough ex-cop hired by Horatio who has played 187 episodes .

4-Kane Needless to say, David Caruso paid a steep price (career-wise) for leaving NYPD Blue early in its second season in the fall of 1994. He traded his role of Det. John Kelly for a movie career that quickly fizzled. In 1997, he returned to television as the star of the CBS series Michael Hayes, playing the title character, but that show was canceled after only one season. In 2002, CBS came calling again, this time casting Caruso as Lt. Horatio Caine on CSI: Miami. After eight years in a career slump, Caruso's career had finally rebounded.With many great Horatio one-liners and many great episodes, CSI: Miami proved to be a great and successful comeback for David Caruso. In contrast to NYPD Blue, CSI: Miami was a show that Caruso stayed with for its entire run. It ran for ten years, from 2002 to 2012, a few years longer than it should have (at least from my point of view). This is not to say that weren't any good episodes during its final years on the air, since one of my favorite episodes ("A Few Dead Men") was broadcast during the show's final season. It is just that the earlier seasons look generally better by comparison.Regardless, I am proud of the show and its success. The series may have inevitably ceased production, but with over 200 episodes produced, it is guaranteed to live on forever both on DVD and in syndicated reruns.
