By delving into a principal character so deeply from the get-go, the newest "CSI" brilliantly one-ups its predecessors. [21 Sep 2004]
-
"CSI: NY" is at least as good as its counterparts, and everything you expect it to be. [22 Sep 2004]
-
Serves up spine-tingling chills with its moody, noirish visuals and grimly efficient leads. [22 Sep 2004]
-
Visually, the show is too dark and blue - a distraction. But the story and the acting trump all. [22 Sep 2004]
-
"CSI: NY" is just as good as the original "CSI" and its first spin-off "CSI: Miami." ... Yes, the writing is a little weak, but the atypical crimes and the fascinating technology make the show extremely addictive. [24 Sep 2004]
-
More emotional, equally gripping, "CSI: N.Y." proves that with care you can successfully copy yourself across the TV schedule. [21 Sep 2004]
-
Aside from the decided lack of humor and the distinctive talents of the stars, there are some other fairly significant differences between NY and the other CSI installments. Mac and Stella work more as equals than Miami's team, and are less competitive than CSI's. We're also given more information about their personal lives. [22 Sep 2004]
-
Your tolerance for all this may depend on how many crime procedurals you need on your calendar. For some, this one may prove one too many. [22 Sep 2004]
-
America doesn’t exactly need another urban crime drama, but this one demands and deserves attention. [22 Sep 2004]
-
For all its redundancy, however, the latest "CSI" is stronger than "Miami" and could eventually rival the original. Credit the two primary stars, Sinise and the city. [22 Sep 2004]
-
"CSI: NY" looks good, and Sinise carries the show effortlessly. But the show needs work, and it needs time. [22 Sep 2004]
-
It is a relentlessly grim (and rather gruesome) episode with none of the bits of humor that mark the other "CSI" shows. [22 Sep 2004]
-
Fortunately CSI: NY has something in common with its predecessors besides a taste for the distasteful: a solid lead performance.
