Staging crime scenes like a murder mystery game for viewers to solve each episode, CSI pioneered the “whodunit” narrative structure that is still present to this day. After 16 seasons and over 300 episodes, CSI said goodbye back in 2015 only to make a comeback late in 2021 with its original two cast members Gil Grissom, played by William Peterson ( Mindhunter), and Sara Sidle played by Jorja Fox( Memento), back in the lab. It is the series that ushered the televised procedural crime drama into American culture ever since its creation back in 2000. CSI has become the staple television phenomenon that spawned multiple spin-offs and redefined the procedural.
