Series Description:

The CSI: Crime Scene Investigation TV show is a 60 minute drama series on CBS about a team of forensic evidence experts who solve crimes in Las Vegas, Nevada.

CSI Trivia:

Check out the top of Gil Grissom's desk the next time you see it! There's a photo under the glass of the series' producer, "Jerry Bruckheimer".

There was a good reason for locating this show in Las Vegas. The crime lab located in that city processes more cases than any other city in the U.S. Only the F.B.I.'s lab in Quantico, Virginia is busier!

The head of CBS, Leslie Moonves, fired CSI cast members Jorja Fox and George Eads in July of 2004 for breach of their contracts. He claimed that they were trying to force an increase in their salaries for the 5th season. Jorja responded that she wasn't aware of a letter of intent that CBS claimed she hadn't signed and George said he simply overslept on the first day of filming. In any case, they were both re-hired at no increase in salary.

William Peterson personally named his character "Grissom" after astronaut Gus Grissom. Gus was the second American to fly in space. He also commanded the first Gemini flight and was scheduled to fly on the first Apollo flight. Sadly, Gus was killed on the ground in a test of the Apollo spacecraft. Peterson's character was originally going to be called Gil Scheinbaum.

You probably know that David Berman is cast as assistant coroner David Phillips on C.S.I., but did you realize that he also is the head researcher for the series?

CSI was originally offered to ABC. They rejected the series as being, "too confusing for the average viewer"! CBS thanks you ABC!!!

Every piece of equipment in the CSI lab is real ... no props.
