Reviews of CSI Season 1 DVD

Amazon
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

“CSI: The Complete First Season” is an excellent purchase, whether the viewer has previously seen the
episodes or not. The show is highly watchable, even in re-runs. Fans of mysteries and armchair detectives
will enjoy the DVDs. The shows may be enjoyed even by couples, because the murders and the pursuit of
the solutions will entertain both sexes, if they both have an interest in crime programs.

In my mind, telelvision has very little to offer in terms of quality fiction,
but once in a while something comes along that really stands out, that proves television
can achieve excellence. Such is the case with CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.

DVD Verdict
In hindsight, it is a wonder that a forensics-oriented show like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation didn't
appear a lot sooner; networks like The Discovery Channel and TLC regularly devote entire evenings to
violent crimes and the scientists who solve them. Given the popularity of these reality-based shows,
it was only a matter of time before someone recognized both the dramatic potential and ready-made
audience for a fictionalized version.
