CSI Goes From Strength to Strength.
This series has gone from strength to strength – Gary Sinise as the professional ex-marine Mac Taylor is very believable and leads the team from the front. The series was reputed to be a little darker than others at the start of the series but I feel that the latest episodes are a little lighter. A big difference between this series and what has gone before is the inclusion of more animals in the storylines – we have had rats, a shot police horse, dogs, an elephant and the team have illustrated how animal traces can also lead to the detection of a crime. The usual format of featuring two crime scenes interwoven into each episodes works very well and this series features several new forensic procedures based on the very latest technology. The tour of the studio set on disc 3 is a real bonus and should not be missed. This series is a must see - believe me you will not be disappointed.

CSI just keeps getting better!
First and foremost, CSI New York is certainly as good as the other CSI incarnations and, like the first spin-off, Miami, it has its own feel and style that makes it enjoyable in its own right. CSI New York is darker and more atmospheric than either Las Vegas or Miami and this gives it a different kind of appeal to the other two shows. Gary Sinise is brilliant and his character has a magnetic personality that is the equal of Horatio Kane in Miami but with a different kind of outlook. Sinise's lead CSI is struggling to cope after 9/11 and this adds a whole dimension of backstory that really makes the character engaging and gripping, so that you really get a feel for what he is doing and why. This makes NY not just a spin-off but a whole TV Universe of itself because it's peopled with characters that are really interesting and engaging to watch in their own right. The other techs are really cool, with the New York style dark humour coming across in their banter with each other and really lifting the show after the more sinister and darker plot lines. It all fits together nicely and the City itself is an ever present force that is a hotbed of murder, deceit, organised crime and every facet of Gang and low-life imaginable. Unlike Miami or Vegas, where people are often transient in the place, New York is the cause and effect of its own crimes and this really gives a spin on the CSI format. To give some examples, in the first season we have a Fetish fantasy that goes wrong, a man who chews his own hand off to escape being chained to a wall, dirty dealings at the corrupt City docks and a gang killing with a really fressh and modern spin. It all adds up to a fresh fix for CSI addicts and a great crime show in its own right. Rent it and enjoy!

The Best CSI IMO
I have only recently started to watch CSI New York, which I now know was a huge mistake, hence why the date of the review.
In my opinion CSI New York is hands down the best of the CSI's. so much more action and wacky, sometimes hard to believe storylines.
A must see for any CSIer -
C.S.I MASTERPIECE

it's the 3rd one
so it gets a bit repetitive after a while but still, if you enjoy the other two, this one is the same but in NY. The team is loveable and you get to see new gadgets, when there is no CSI or CSI Miami to watch, this is very good to see.
