Crime Scene Investigation

 　　For my last, tenth blog, of CSI, I am going to give you a summary of my past few weeks posting.

　　CSI is the first American series that I obsessed with, and that is why I want to recommend you to see this amazing series. I in turns introduced CSI: Los Vegas, CSI: New York, CSI: Miami, and CSI: Cyber. For second to forth week, I made an introduction of CSI: Los Vegas, talking about its main roles, theme songs, and something else. In fifth week, I post my favorite episode which Taylor Swift was guest appearance, and had a beautiful song of her in it. Following three weeks, I in turns introduce other three derivative works, including their leading roles, theme songs, and features. Last week, I found something different to show you, the CSI in reality.

After ten weeks reporting, I hope you guys know more about CSI, or maybe attract you to go check out these series!

CSI in Real

　　Past few weeks I introduced you the American series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, it is about investigating murder cases. How about the real crime scene investigation? Is it just like what acted in the drama?

 　　I found a video on the Internet, it was focused on the investigation in the real life. According to the video, the real crime scene investigation is not as fast path as what preformed in the series, sometimes it took several months for solving a case. The technique used to examine the clues also takes a lot of time to operate. The largest difference between the investigation in the series and in the real life is that it is not always that easy to find so many evident. Sometimes it just nothing can be found in the crime scene. It's really a time-taking work!

　　When I was searching for the information, I accidentally saw this video, it's about crime scene cleaning. I think it's really an important work, and also take a lots effort. Let’s take a look at it!

CSI: New York

This week I’m going to talk about CSI: New York. CSI: New York is second derivative work of the CSI series. Its debut was in CSI: Miami season 2 episode 23 ‘’Non Stop ’’, the leading role Horatio Caine flied to New York to arrest a escaped criminal. Through this episode brought out the new series. And it’s now launching season 9.

　　

　　CSI: New York’s leading role is Mac Taylor, the actor is one of the three performers that is not New Yorker, all the other actors and actresses are New Yorkers.

Besides ‘’Non Stop ’’, there is another crossover episode in CSI: Miami season 4 episode 7 ‘’Felony Flight ’’ and its continued episode is in CSI: Ney York season 2 episode 7 ‘’Manhattan Manhunt’’. It’s a story began with an airplane crash accident.　

　　The theme song of it is ‘’BaBa O’Riley’’ which also called ‘’Teenage Wasteland’’, and it’s also sang by the band ‘’The Who’’.

CSI: Miami

Vlog!

CSI: Cyber

　　Last week I recommended you to see an episode of CSI: Las Vegas, and this week I want to talk about CSI: Cyber. The word ‘’cyber’’ means everything about computer or Internet, so CSI: Cyber is about ‘’network crime’’ or so called ‘’computer crime’’. It’s the third derivative series of CSI, and it’s now launching season 2. What makes it more unusual is that it’s the first time that the leading role is female since the CSI’s debut fifteen years ago.

　　Avery Ryan is in charge of FBI Special Agents for investigating cyber-crimes in North America. Unlike other investigation, the investigators in this department catch criminal by internet techniques, in order to solve the murder cases related to Internet, cyber-theft, hacking, sexual offenses, blackmail etcetera. They are trying to investigate and seize the suspect hiding behind invisible network. And in season 2, the team that Avery leads will work with the specialist department ‘’Next Generation Cyber Forensics Division’’ which is under the guiding of D.B. Russell, the guy who is the Night Shift Supervisor in CSI: Las Vegas.

　　

Turn, Turn, Turn

　　Since last week I finished introduce you the main characters in CSI: Las Vegas. I’m going to talk about my favorite episode, ’’Turn, Turn, Turn ’’ (seson9 episode16). First of all, there is a guest appearance, Taylor Swift. She is a great singer, and I really like her.

　　Episode started with everyone celebrated Nick's birthday, and they got the message of a murder case. When Nick arrived at the crime scene, a hotel, he realized that the victim was someone he knew. Time went back to a year ago, there's a case in a hotel, where Nick first met Haley, played by Taylor, when she's still a naive and curious girl. Time went by, Haley became more and more rebellious, because of friend's betrayal and her mom's weird behavior. Every time when Nick saw her, she just seems to be unhappier. And now, it only left her dead body. Contrast to the wanderer, Nick also met a year ago, received Nick's kindness, and now ready to enter a college. After the investigation, they found out the case is connected to another case few months ago. 

　

　I like this episode not only because of the suspenseful story line, but also it deeply described the relationship between people. Especially when Nick solved the case, he blamed himself for not giving enough concerned towards Haley, and didn't figure out the case which before death, so it turned out to be this consequence. It really moves me when Nick's tears fell.

Here's Taylor's scene in CSI ->

You should check out this episode yourself to find out the rest of the details of it. It's really worth watching.



P.S. The brilliant song in 3:00 is ''You're Not Sorry''(click to listen on YouTube) by Taylor Swift.

Characters-2

　　Hi everyone, last week I've make some brief introduce of  five characters in CSI: Las Vegas. These week I'll continue to introduce you another five characters that I familiar with. Please enjoy!

Gilbert Arthur "Gil" Grissom
He's rank as CSI level 3. Being a Night Shift Supervisor since season 1, and later retired in season 9. Everyone miss him a lot after his retirement. He is always calm and acute at various situations, which always help cases solved.

Archie Johnson Audiovisual technician

The reason I choose to introduce him is definitely not because he is pretty handsome, but he is the only Chinese American role in this series. Anything about computer can't bother him, he can always find the way to figure it out.

James "Jim" Brass    Detective Captain

Dr. Raymond Langston

He has medical degree and was a pathologist at a hospital before he joined CSI's team. I really like this role because he always trying to find out the motive of the suspect and why they displayed such violent behaviors. He truly probe into the mental part of every legal cases.

Nicholas "Nick" Stokes

Rank as CSI level 3, he appeared from season 1 to season 15, and left because of advancement. I think this role is the most emotional one in the series. He's attentive to evident investigation and also value the interaction between people.

Characters-1

Hi, in today's blog, I am going to introduce some CSI's characters. Since there are 15 seasons, I won't list all of the characters, I will only let you guys meet some of them catching my eyes or the main roles in the series. 

Diebenkorn "D.B." Russell

Rank as Crime Lab Director from season 12. He seems to be a weird person, but his strict when working.

    Gregory "Greg" Sanders Rank as CSI Level 3, he almost appeared in every episodes since season 1. He is really smart and hard-working, and he try so hard to pass the test to be an investigator. In the series he is a youngster who is just like a college student.

Sara Sidle  CSI Level 3

Henry Andrews

Lab Technician Toxicologist

  

David Hodges

He is a Trace Technician. His appearance makes me laugh everytime. He always doing or saying some funny things which ease the tense situation.

Theme Song of CSI

The video on the top is the opening of CSI Season 1, and the song you heard is the theme song, which is continue to use in any other seasons. It’s like a symbol of this series, which represented the beginning of each story. Take a look of the video, and you’ll found that it seems to be a really old series, because it was first released in 2000. CSI made an instant hit as soon as it has launched. And the theme song stayed in people’s mind.

There is something I have to apologize to, last blog I’ve said that there are 15 seasons of CSI, but actually these 15 seasons are only focus on Las Vegas. And there are derivative series, including CSI: Miami for 8 seasons and CSI: New York for 7 seasons. So there is a lot more seasons than I thought before! Next week I’ll make a thorough introduce to CSI’s 15 seasons. Hope you enjoy!
