Think about it they both have

multiple spin offs
cheesy special effects
Dodgy plotlines

And are completly unrealistic yet strangely addictive

not enough sex for star trek

i just wish they would stick to having csi set in OTHER cities. vegas was a great idea, miami a good one, NYC is just WRONG. there are always more than enough shows set in new york or los angeles.

i want a CSI- NEW ORLEANS ... murder by voodoo!

or a CSI-SEATTLE... murder at microsoft!!

CSI-SANTA FE ... murder by psychic crystals!

The music for the CSI New York is totally wrong as well. Why New York? Why not Minneapolis or somewhere really cold. Lots of frozen bodies etc.

No, it's not. While Star Trek started to suck monkey balls with Voyager, CSI started with episode 1 of the first series.

Well obviously Star Trek is meant to be but in CSI DNA tests can be done in minutes and they can get almost the exact time of death

too much non-csi work done by techs.

csi dont investigate or solve cases, they dont make deals, they dont interview suspects, they collect and process evidence

They should do CSI-Gotham, who WOULDN'T want to watch CSI in a fictional world where superheros and supervillans exist? Think of what the murders would be like when The Joker strikes.
