CSI: NY: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

[[Spin-Off]] from ''[[CSI: Miami]]'' itself [[Spin-Off|spun]] from ''[[CSI]]'' (2004- present) set in New York City. The show's [[Character Development|character work]] is probably its strongest aspect, with multi-season arcs for several of the characters, particularly Mac, Danny, and Lindsay. The cast is full of [[Dysfunction Junction|slightly messed up]] characters, all the way from Mac down to Adam. In fact, the coroner is probably the most well-adjusted person in the lab. In general this is handled well and doesn't devolve into [[Wangst]] territory.

* [[Team Dad]]: Mostly Mac to Hawkes, including letting Hawkes stay at his place when Hawkes lost all his money to an insurance scam. Mac to Danny at times too.

* [[Ten-Minute Retirement]]: Mac's retirement at the beginning of season eight. Danny's promotion to police sergeant (and thus away from the crime lab) also only lasts four episodes before he voluntarily demotes himself and goes back to being a detective.

* [[Unnaturally Blue Lighting]]: first season, even worse than usual.

* [[Viewers are Morons]]: Everything, and I mean, EVERYTHING has to be explained to the viewer, especially during the autopsy scenes. While this is normal for a show about forensic science, the writers like to go a little to far to explain stuff that's common sense to even the average, non-CSI viewer.
