As if two (most likely three) NCISes and three FBIs were not enough for CBS, they are bringing back CSI for another season. William Petersen, Jorja Fox, and Wallace Langham are back for the sequel, which will debut next season. The series also stars Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, Mel Rodriguez, and Mandeep Dhillon.
CSI: Vegas will focus on an existential threat that threatens to destroy the Crime Lab. Therefore, they bring back old school members Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle to use their knowledge to work with a new team and use the updated technology to protect and serve Vegas.
“Twenty-one years ago, we launched ‘CSI’ and watched in awe as this new cinematic series launched an entire genre and became a groundbreaking juggernaut that still has global resonance today,” said Kelly Kahl, President, CBS Entertainment. “We are thrilled to welcome the next generation of forensic criminalists to the ‘CSI’ brand and unite them with the legendary characters from the past who we still love, including the extraordinary Billy Petersen and Jorja Fox. Crimefighting technology has advanced dramatically over the last several years, and combined with classic ‘CSI’ storytelling, we can’t wait to watch this new ‘CSI’ team do what they do best: follow the evidence.”
If I were CBS, I would have comedy Mondays, NCIS Tuesdays, reality Wednesdays with Blue Bloods, FBI Thursdays, and rebooted Fridays. They should pair their like shows together. I never understand why they don’t do that.
Are you excited that CSI is back after being off the case for five years?
What I want to know is which The Who song they will use for the theme song. Which one do you want them to use? Who Are You, Won’t Get Fooled Again, Baba O’Riley, and I Can See for Miles were already taken by the four former CSIs, CSI, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY, and CSI: Cyber.
