    Product Description
    Crime scene investigators and police work together in Miami, using forensics to solve crimes.
    Genre: Television
    Rating: NR
    Release Date: 10-APR-2007
    Media Type: DVD

    Each locale in the CSI family has their own color palette: the original series is a dingy, seedy green, while New York is shot in gloomy blue hues. Miami, on the other hand, is a rich meld of citrus yellows and oranges, as bright as star David Caruso's hair. Yet with all the muscle-beach shots and balmy palm trees, grisly crime scenes are waiting to be dusted. The third season of CSI: Miami starts off with a bang (literally) as cast regular Rory Cochrane is killed in the line of duty. His death casts a shadow over the Miami crew, who have the courtesy to mention his name every few episodes or so. Instead of replacing Cochrane with a colorful new character, however, he's replaced by replicas of the other shows. One is young, inexperienced Ryan Wolfe (Jonathan Togo, bearing a resemblance to the original CSI's young, inexperienced Eric Szmanda). Also joining the cast full-time is Det. Yelina Salas (Sofia Milos), who brings a Raphaelite beauty to the cast a la Melina Kanakeredes from CSI: NY, but she has very little to do but receive longing glances from Horatio Crane (Caruso), who still harbors feelings for her. Too bad she's the widow of Crane's dead brother.

    Miami's unusual cases include an axe murderer (Eric Roberts) with an apprentice; a Romeo who dies at a speed-dating event; a corpse whose skull must be boiled for processing; a party girl crushed to death by a snake; and a crime scene that involves a tsunami (yes, that's right.). Even pro skateboarder Tony Hawk turns up as--what else?--a pro skateboarder who's killed while motion-capturing himself for a video game. The best thing in CSI: Miami is Caruso, who gets more yardage out of Horatio Crane than the other CSI franchise leads. As a detective, he isn't restricted to swabbing people's mouths but gets to pull out a gun and strong-arm suspects. He also may have the biggest love for over-the-top dramatic pauses on television ("Because. The evidence. Is. The. One. Who's. Talking."), but he's having fun doing it.--Ellen A. Kim

    4 out of 5 stars Well done, but starting to feel like the same old thing   December 21, 2009
    C. M. Boyd (California)
    The third season of CSI: Miami kicks off with the episode "Lost Son", in which the team of criminologists races to find an abducted child while dealing with the loss of one of their own people. It's a good start, and the rest of the season continues in much the same way. The audience learns more about the characters' backgrounds, and we finally find out what really happened to Lt. Caine's little brother, who disappeared while working undercover.
    The biggest problem with the show is its repetitiveness. Five minutes of each show are spent just watching the team members looking through microscopes and examining fingerprints. This was interesting the first few times I watched the show, but after a season or two I'm familiar with the way the team collects and examines evidence, and I wouldn't mind if less show time was spent in the lab and more was spent on the story itself. That being said, I do understand that the CSI franchise is about people whose job in real life is to analyze every piece of evidence, and no one is forcing me to watch the show, so I shouldn't complain too loud.
    Although the level of sex, drugs, and violence make CSI:Miami an inappropriate choice for families with young children, the stories are interesting and the actors are well-cast. The show would be a good choice for anyone who enjoys crime/cop drama, but if you're not a fan of the genre, then it would be a good idea to watch a couple of episodes and decide whether or not you like CSI:Miami before spending money on a whole season. It would also be best to begin with the first season, since many of the show's story arcs start there.
    For people who have seen some of Miami and are interested in purchasing some of the DVD's, I can only say that seasons two and three are my favorite thus far. The characters are well-developed, but the show wasn't so old at this point that it had lost its freshness.

    P.S. Most of the products I review online (not just on Amazon) are books, so please don't be disconcerted by the fact that I'm critiquing a TV show, but my profile nickname has the word "reader" in it. :)



    4 out of 5 stars CSI: Miami - Season 3: Very Good, but could be better   July 14, 2009
    R. David Francis (Columbus OH USA)
    Just watched my copy of CSI Miami Season over the course of a couple of weeks.

    On the whole, I was surprised at how much I enjoyed watching Seasons 1 and 2 (seen within the past 18 months or so), because (for me) Miami has generally been my least favorite CSI franchise. I think, with season 3, some of what's bothered me historically has started to crop up.

    Now, on the whole, the stories are as good as ever. And we're still earlier enough in the series that the only really improbable bit of tech they're playing with is the interface to their system itself (I give them a pass on that, as they need something that can be broadcast well, more than something that someone would actually use). The tech they're using today makes me wonder when the taxes in Miami went up to 90% to pay for the crime lab's doodads.

    But, as others have noted, the additional of Ryan Wolfe has been somewhat problematic. We do have a throughline of character development with Ryan; his personal style develops throughout the season, with his dress sense growing sharper until he gets to his current "copy the boss" look (which I think he doesn't quite reach until season 4). And, he can come across as something of a brown-noser. But, even 5 years later, his relationship with his co-workers is inconsistent. They can't quite seem to decide how well they all get along. I mean, over in the Las Vegas show, David Hodges can be consistently obnoxious and annoying, while still being a useful and usable member of the cast. With Ryan, they can't quite decide what they want him to be - and this tends to make the cases where he does rub Delko and Calleigh the wrong way stand out.

    Moving beyond Ryan, there's the dropped plotlines. It's never entirely clear to me what happens to Suzie and Madison (I think that's her name) after the episode where she needs a transplant from Ray Jr. They've disappeared, and aren't even mentioned anymore. Similarly, the heating up of the standing conflict between Horatio and Rick from IAB (initially aggravated by his becoming involved with Yelena, then getting worse when it looks like Rick's abusing Yelena) is basically dropped. We're never sure what happened. While that can be the point of a story, in some cases, it doesn't really feel like that here. And Rick is still around today....

    Then, there's the general sense of limited continuity. We don't see Eric having problems with work or his personal life until he loses his badge during anonymous outdoor sex; he goes to see a counselor, a fact which is mentioned at most once again. Horatio's relationship with the prosecutor seems to come out of nowhere, and then dissolve almost as quickly. In future seasons, Ryan's gambling problem is handled similarly.

    We know they can do better, especially in future seasons. Follow-ups to Ryan's opening his mouth a bit too wide around a reporter, for example, are picked up in several future episodes.

    Still, all in all, I enjoyed seeing these stories again, and do recommend them.

    I ordered this dvd at the beginning of June and I have not received it yet on July 11th. I have sent the seller two emails and have had no response from him.


    5 out of 5 stars Fantastic Series   June 20, 2009
    Susan D. Mckinney (St. Joseph, IL United States)
    CSI: Miami is a wonderful series and the 3rd season just turns up the heat another several degrees. The writers and the actors really bring the characters to life making them believable characters with human strengths and weaknesses. The story lines develop in a way to bring you the viewer to the same points as the characters.


    3 out of 5 stars The End !!   January 18, 2009
    Brad Lloyd (Tulsa, Oklahoma)
    This is the last really good season with great writing, character assessments and tight story lines.
    It may be coincidental, but once Rory Cochran left the show it went straight to HE!! !!!
    This show has since turned into a comic book on TV with simplistic, corny story lines and very unrealistic endings!
    What a shame they ruined a great show !
    Bringing Jonathon Togo on this show was a huge mistake...IMOP !!
