CSI: Crime Scene Investigation is a television series which debuted in 2000. The series has sparked three spin-offs, CSI: Miami, CSI: NY and CSI: Cyber. Three of these series center on a team of forensic scientists who investigate mysterious crimes, while CSI: Cyber focuses on a special unit of investigators dedicated to solving crimes with a digital aspect, such as cyberstalking and online fraud.

Cain from CSI: Miami was voted at number 91, and Gil Grissom & Catherine Willows from CSI:Crime Scene Investigation were placed at number 82 in Bravo's ranking of the 100 Greatest TV Characters.
