Production
CSI: Miami is filmed primarily in the United States.
Location
shots are filmed in Florida while indoor scenes are shot at Raleigh
Manhattan Studios in Manhattan
Beach, California
. Some scenes, mainly outdoor, are filmed
mostly in Long Beach,
California
, as well as portions of Manhattan Beach and
Redondo
Beach
. Beach areas of Downtown Long Beach are
often used for other outdoor scenes: Marina Green Park, Rainbow
Lagoon Park. The newly constructed high-rise condos there give the
presence of being in Miami. The sculptured walkway paying tribute
to the old Pike Roller Coaster can be seen in the background in the
episode "Under The Influence".
Other locations of Long Beach are used such as the Naples district,
where its canals and upscale homes with large boat docks and palm
trees give a feel of Miami.
The building that's used in exterior shots of the MDPD crime lab is
actually the
Federal
Aviation Administration Federal Credit Union headquarters in
Hawthorne (on Aviation Boulevard between Marine Avenue and
Rosecrans Avenue).
Music
Like
CSI and
CSI: NY,
CSI: Miami uses a
song by
The Who ("
Won't Get Fooled Again") as its theme
song. The lyrics were written by
Pete
Townshend, with vocals by
Roger
Daltrey, from
The Who's 1971 album,
Who's Next.
All throughout the series music plays an important role, with
popular music often playing during the course of an episode.

Plot
A spin-off from
CSI:
Crime Scene Investigation follows a South Florida
forensics team headed by the brooding but humorous
Horatio Caine. Against a backdrop of simmering
ethnic and cultural tensions, Caine's team probes cases similar to
those of their Las Vegas counterparts.
Characters
Main characters
- CSI Level 3 Day Shift
Supervisor: Lieutenant Horatio "H" Caine (David Caruso) is the head of the Miami-Dade
crime lab, a former NYPD homicide detective, a forensic analyst, and former
bomb squad officer. Horatio is known to be very protective of his
team, often going out of his way to assist them when needed. He is
an outstanding marksman, and does not hesitate to use deadly force.
He also very often goes to extraordinary lengths to save evidence
or a potential victim. His demeanor is serious, direct, and to the
point. Horatio appears to have a good sense for how to communicate
with children who have just experienced traumatic ordeals. Horatio
uses the "stay-calm" approach while comforting victims, killers,
etc. Horatio is usually seen wearing a pair of sunglasses. Horatio
was briefly married to Marisol Delko
Caine (Alana de la Garza); the
marriage ended when she was murdered by a Mala Noche sniper in,
"Rampage." In, "Dangerous Son," Horatio discovered that he has
a sixteen-year-old son named Kyle Harmon
(Evan Ellingson) (from an affair he
had while working undercover, under the name of John Walden). In,
"Going Ballistic," Horatio is shot,
and it is later revealed in the episode, "Resurrection," that he faked his death in order
to stop a sale of illegal bullets. His formation of the team in
1997 is depicted in flashbacks in the episode "Out of Time," shortly after he
became the head of the new investigative unit swiftly renamed
CSI.
- CSI Level 3 Day Shift
Assistant Supervisor: Calleigh Duquesne (Emily Procter) is a ballistics specialist.
Calleigh's slight build, blonde good looks, and southern belle
accent often lead others to underestimate her, but she is a
brilliant and a dedicated scientist. Her father is an alcoholic attorney who has
tried to rehabilitate himself several times. She follows the letter
of the rules at all times. In, "Ambush," a
website seems to be stalking her and it is later discovered that
the person behind it is Dan Cooper whom
she was involved in catching for stealing deceased CSI Tim Speedle's credit card. In, "All In," she is kidnapped and forced to help cover up
a crime scene, but is later saved by her fellow CSIs. In, "Smoke Gets in Your
CSI's," Calleigh was rushed to the hospital for smoke
inhalation when she and Ryan Wolfe escaped from a burning house
with a dead body. In, "Seeing
Red," Calleigh shot Eric Delko and in, "Out of Time," Eric is in critical
condition and a flashback occurs back to 1997 and Calleigh's first
day on the job.
- CSI Level 1: Ryan
Wolfe (Jonathan Togo) was
working as a police officer at the time he was hired for the lab
virtually on the spot by Horatio
Caine, who noted Ryan's immaculate care of his gun with
approval, likely due to Wolfe having OCD. He first appeared in,
"Under the Influence," but did
not become a regular cast member until, "Hell
Night." Ryan was replacing fallen CSI Tim Speedle, who died in the line of duty as a
direct result of his poor gun maintenance. Ryan was impaled in the
eye with a nail gun in, "Nailed." At the end of the episode,
"Burned," Ryan was fired for
being directly linked to a murder suspect and not disclosing it to
the department. Seeking jobs as both a crime-scene expert, an
expert witness for the defense, a firearms range technician, and
applying to work as an ME Investigator while applying for
reinstatement, he was later reinstated. In "Going Ballistic," Ryan receives a text
message saying, "It is done," right after Horatio is shot and
presumed dead. It is revealed in the seventh season premiere that
he was asked by Horatio to assist in setting up Horatio's own
execution, so he could go undercover. At the end of "Target Specific" and throughout the episode
"Wolfe In Sheep's
Clothing," Ryan was kidnapped and was forced by the Russian Mob
to cover up a crime.
- MDPD Homicide
Detective: Sergeant Frank Tripp (Rex Linn) is a Texas
-born
homicide detective who accompanies the team
to the crime scenes. He has a good working relationship with
all the CSIs. He is divorced, with three kids revealed in,
"Dispo Day." After passing the Sergeant's
Exam in the beginning of "Dangerous
Son," Tripp was required to spend some time in uniform on a
patrol rotation, but soon returned to the homicide unit and
plainclothes in "Guerillas in the Mist."
Throughout the early part of the series, Frank and Horatio didn't
get along very well, but recently they are often seen together at
crime scenes. After Ryan Wolfe gets fired
and later re-instated, Tripp and Ryan appear to be at odds. In
"Chain Reaction," he gets Ryan to
fingerprint a prison phone and tells him that he's his "favorite
little dust monkey" in an attempt to insult him.
- CSI Trainee: Natalia Boa
Vista (Eva LaRue) is a DNA
analyst who upon first arriving, was only allowed to work on
cold or unsolved cases due to the
restrictions of her federal grant. She escaped an abusive marriage before joining the
department, when her association with a society for battered women
was key to helping the team solve the murder of a woman. At the end
of season four, it is revealed that Natalia is an FBI informant in
the lab, assigned to help build a case against Horatio Caine and his team. Natalia was
revealed to be the mole in the lab. In season 5, much to her
distress, she discovered her abusive ex-husband Nick Townsend (Rob Estes) was out of prison when he served her
with a restraining order and he was working for a private company
that cleans up crime scenes. The two shared a tense relationship
until Nick's murder, a crime for which Natalia was briefly
considered the prime suspect. In "Darkroom," Ryan Wolfe
finds a stash of photographed girls and Natalia discovers that one
of the pictures is her sister Anya and DNA from a crime scene
reveals that Anya is indeed one of the women that the CSIs are
looking for. In "Tunnel Vision,"
Natalia was finally certified to carry a firearm and she shot a
suspect in self-defense for the first time.
- CSI
Art Theft Specialist: Walter Simmons (Omar Benson Miller) a Louisiana native
and art theft specialist who transfers over from the night shift to
join Horatio's team. His first appearance was in episode, "Bolt Action." He became part of the
main cast in episode, "Dude Where's My Groom?."
- CSI Level 1: Jesse
Cardoza (Eddie Cibrian)
was a former LAPD
officer, who transferred back to the Miami-Dade Police Department.
In
"Out of Time," a flashback
occurs back to 1997, depicting Cardoza's departure from the
Miami-Dade Police Department and transfer to Los Angeles
, following in the conclusion of a case which led to
Horatio Caine becoming head of the new investigative unit that
became CSI. He returns in "Hostile Takeover," as a member
of the team, taking Eric Delko's place.
When he returns, the lab is attacked and he is taken hostage along
with three other people, but he was rescued by Horatio carrying out
the gunman's unique request in exchange for their lives.
Former main characters
- CSI Level 3: Eric
Delko (Adam
Rodríguez) was a fingerprint and drug identification expert of
Cuban and Russian
descent. He was also the team's underwater recovery expert. In,
"Shattered," Delko's job is endangered
when he is arrested for drug possession, but it is discovered that
the marijuana was for his sister, Marisol Delko Caine (Alana de la Garza), to ease the pain of
her leukemia treatments, who was murdered
by a Mala Noche sniper after she married Horatio Caine. In, "Man
Down," while trying to rescue a woman kidnapped by escapee
Clavo Cruz (Gonzalo
Menendez), Delko was shot in the head by one of his henchmen and
critically wounded. He survived and went back on the team, but
suffered some memory loss. In, "And How Does That Make You
Kill?," Eric told his psychiatrist's of his affection for CSI
Calleigh Duquesne. In, "The DeLuca Motel," it is
discovered that he has been staying in a motel because someone is
following him. They found out that his real father is from Cuba and
is trying to kill him. In, "Seeing Red," Eric was trying to help
his father and is seen escaping a gun silo, only to be shot at by
friend Calleigh. He survives and is shown waking up in a hospital
room in "Out of Time."
Actor Adam Rodríguez did not return full time for the eighth season
and was replaced by former CSI Jesse
Cardoza (Eddie Cibrian). Delko
shows that he is leaving by telling Calleigh that he is going to
leave the CSI team because life is too short. Before he drives away
at the end, he gets a note from Horatio saying,"I'll always be
here".
- Medical Examiner: Dr. Tara
Price (Megalyn
Echikunwoke) was the day-shift medical examiner who replaced Dr. Alexx Woods (Khandi Alexander) in the seventh season.
Dr. Tara Price made her debut in, "Won't Get Fueled Again." She became
part of the main cast credits in, "Bombshell." In, "Cheating Death," CSIs Eric Delko and Ryan
Wolfe play a joke on her which almost results in the entire
case being compromised. In the end of "Divorce Party," Tara is shown to
steal a bottle of Oxycodone (an opioid
analgesic medication) from a victim in the morgue and blames it on
Julia Winston. Also, Horatio Caine has
his son Kyle working as an intern for her after he gets into
trouble. In "Dissolved," Ryan Wolfe
confronts Tara about the stolen pills in her locker. When Julia
takes the autopsy hostage because of what she did, Tara is
arrested. Actress Megalyn Echikunwoke's image is removed from the
main cast credits after "Dissolved."
- Medical Examiner: Dr. Alexx
Woods (Khandi
Alexander) was a Miami-Dade medical
examiner. Alexx began her medical career in New York as a
physician and became a medical examiner with the CSI team after
moving to Miami for personal reasons. She is a very emotional
person, and is more of a "mother" figure for the CSI team, showing
great concern for them. She also often talks to the dead bodies in
a comforting and caring tone as she examines them. She is married
with a young son and daughter with former husband Andrew Kalish,
who was murdered in an episode early on in the series. In "Rock and a Hard Place," her son is
named the prime suspect in a murder; this causes Alexx to rethink
her job in the M.E.'s Office (and her place on the team as well as
her friendship with the other CSI's), and she quits, saying to
Horatio, "I need to spend more of my time taking care of the
living." Horatio responds by saying that should she wish to return,
her post would be open for her. Alexx returned in "Smoke Gets in Your
CSI's" as a part time ER Doctor at Dade General.
- MDPD Homicide: Detective Yelina
Salas (Sofia Milos) was a
Colombian homicide detective frequently attached to CSI
investigations, and the widow of Horatio's brother Raymond Caine.
She later starts a relationship with IAB Sergeant Rick
Stetler, Horatio's personal nemesis. After her husband Raymond was
revealed to still be alive, she left with him and their son for
Brazil, where they planned to keep a low profile for Ray's safety.
She reappears in the fifth season premiere, "Rio." Horatio and Eric fly to Rio de Janeiro
to hunt down Antonio Riaz, who murdered Horatio's
wife and Delko's sister Marisol. While in Rio, Riaz kills
Raymond Caine and is enlisting Ray Jr. into drug running in the
shantytowns of the area. Yelina and Ray Jr. wind up back in Miami,
and Yelina goes into business as a private investigator revealed in
"Burned." In "Dangerous Son," Yelina investigates a suspect
for Horatio, and she locates a birth certificate that reveals that
the parolee is in fact Horatio's biological son. Yelina also
returns for the seventh season premiere, going undercover to help
Horatio capture enemy Ron Saris. She was kidnapped in the episode,
"Seeing Red," but was
rescued by Horatio.
- CSI Level 3:
Tim "Speed" Speedle (Rory
Cochrane) was a trace evidence and impressions expert;
originally from Syracuse
, New York, who worked for the St. Petersburg PD
in 1997, and had a degree in biology from
Columbia University.
Speed was killed in the line of duty in, "Lost
Son;" he had not maintained his firearm diligently and was shot
by a suspect when it misfired during a shoot-out. The character was
written out at the request of actor Rory Cochrane, who wanted to
pursue a career in film and reportedly disliked the long, arduous
shooting schedules for CSI: Miami. The actor later
reprised his role as a hallucination of Eric Delko in "Bang, Bang, Your Debt." It was
revealed in "Out of Time,"
that Jesse Cardoza knew Tim Speedle,
who was working for the St. Petersburg PD
in 1997, and Cardoza asked Horatio if he wanted him to be part of
his new team.
- CSI Level 3 Day Shift Assistant
Supervisor: Lieutenant Megan Donner (Kim Delaney) was Horatio's predecessor who went
on indefinite leave from her job following the death of her
husband. She briefly returned to work alongside Horatio, who had
since been promoted to head investigator of the CSI unit, but later
resigned, finding the pressure of the job to now be more than she
could handle. Actress Kim Delaney's character was reportedly
written out due to the lack of chemistry between her and
Caruso.
Recurring characters
CSI: Miami has utilized an extensive cast of recurring
characters on the show. Recurring characters can be found as
technicians in the crime lab, as homicide as detectives, as family
members of main characters, and as villains, among others.
Episodes
Crossovers
CSI: Miami was spun off from an episode of the original
CSI entitled "
Cross
Jurisdictions." In this episode,
Catherine Willows and
Warrick Brown of the original
CSI
travel to Miami while investigating the murder of Las Vegas'
ex-chief of detectives.
In addition,
CSI: Miami has crossed over with
CSI: NY. Characters from
CSI: NY were
originally featured in the second season of
CSI: Miami in
the episode, "
MIA/NYC NonStop" that
aired May 17, 2004.
Miami crossed over a second time in
the fourth season episode, "
Felony
Flight," that aired November 7, 2005 in which
Mac Taylor flies from New York and comes to Miami
to assist Horatio in tracking down a common nemesis named Henry
Darius. The story was continued on
CSI: NY in the second
season episode called, "
Manhattan Manhunt," that
aired November 9, 2005, when Henry Darius escapes to New York and
Horatio goes along with Mac to continue the investigation.
In the eighth season,
CSI: Miami crossed over with
CSI and
CSI: NY in a three-part story
starring
Laurence Fishburne as
Dr. Ray Langston.

The
CSI: Miami Region 2 DVD releases are released in two
parts, the first part is released with 11, 12 or 13 episodes and
then the second part is released containing the rest of the
episodes and special features are split up between the two parts
and on the same day that the second part is released they are
available for purchase as a full season
* The Region 4 releases of the first two seasons were initially
divided up into two parts of 11 or 12 episodes before being
released in full season DVD "fat packs", with large cases compared
to the slimline cases DVD distributors opt for now. The release
dates detailed here are for the re-released seasons in slimline
cases. The two-part releases as well as the "fat pack" full season
releases of the first two seasons were released much earlier than
these re-releases. The subsequent seasons were first released in
the slimline cases.
Other releases
The
CSI franchise has also been
released as a series of mobile games. In Fall 2007,
CBS teamed up with game developer
Gameloft to bring

The game features actual cast members such as
Horatio Caine,
Alexx
Woods and
Calleigh Duquesne

assistance. The game is also available for download on various iPod
devices
In spring 2008,
Gameloft and
CBS released "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation - The
Mobile Game" which is based on the original series in Las Vegas,
NV. This game introduces the unique ability to receive calls during
the game to provide tips and clues about crime scenes and evidence.
As for the storyline, the game developers collaborated with
Anthony E. Zuiker (the series creator) to ensure that
the plot and dialogue were aligned with the show's style.
