PRIME TIME.


CSI: Miami is a highly watched television show and is also a series from the original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. This show has been airing on CBS for 9 years from 2002 to present time today. The show was recently renewed with a new season. I've always been a fan of their show because they solve crime sometimes involving teens or young adults and being present. For example, one of the recent episodes played music that is actually popular right now. Their stories aren't old and boring, and the show always keeps me wondering the whole time.

The basic cast in CSI: Miami are five heterosexual men. Three white: Horatio, Ryan and Frank. One hispanic, Eric and one black,Walter and two heterosexual woman, one white, Calleigh and the other hispanic, Natatlia. All of the actors are around the mid 30's except for the main character, Horatio who looks around his mid 40's. Walter would be the only "overweight" one. The woman in the show dress sophisticated, classy not trashy. Even though they are the only two girls on the team, they are highly respected by the men they work with.

Throughout the season, each character has their own share of relationship problems. Whether it be with someone outside of their team or within each other but none of them seem to last. When you're a police officer and a forensic investigator there really is no time for dating and relationships. The show mainly portrays the woman being strong and independent and that their job is more important than any guy. This show is targeted mainly for a mature audiance or anyone who likes watching crimes being solved. I would definitely give this show an A of how they portray woman.
