CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

The series centers on a team of forensic experts employed by the Las Vegas Police Department, who rely on physical evidence to unravel gruesome murder cases. This particularly graphic drama has sparked the creation of numerous other procedural cop shows. Combining logical deduction, intense subject matter, and character-focused storytelling, the series has made a significant impact. The network subsequently introduced spin-offs, CSI: Miami and CSI: NY, which ran for ten and nine seasons respectively before being cancelled.
