CSI Files
Captain
CSI: New York co-creator <font color=yellow>Ann Donahue</font> today said the new show will have plenty of Big Apple touches to set it apart from its predecessors.
"You're making a whole new world," Donahue told <font color=yellow>Robert Levine</font> at the New York Times. She said writing tomorrow night's CSI: Miami episode which launches the spin-off, "MIA/NYC - NonStop", was no easy task. "You have to show New York the way you want the world to see it. And then you have to introduce five new characters. That's a ton to do."
One of the aspects of the show that will make it stand out from the crowd is the lead, New York born-and-bred Detective Mac Taylor, played by Emmy-winner <font color=yellow>Gary Sinise</font>. "All three of the CSI stars are driven in their own different way," Donahue said. Mac Taylor is thoroughly in touch with the vibe of the Big Apple: "The Sinise character knows that the secret about New York is that people love to talk. They want to unburden their secrets, but sometimes they need a reason. And for him, the evidence is that reason. He gets to lay down the evidence and say, 'Look, I know this is hard for you to say, but let me start the story for you.'"
The New York Times report said the suspects encountered in the series will be tougher because of the Big Apple's "harsher conditions". "When you have to bundle up and fight to get into Manhattan to get to your job, that makes you different than the girl that's in Miami, which is peaceful and placid," Donahue said. "That's the kind of girl you'll be able to break really quickly."
Keys will also play a part in the pilot episode, to reflect the New York habit of leaving keys to their apartments with their neighbours. "There are so few things that are so New York and one of them is keys," Donahue said.
"MIA/NYC - NonStop" airs Monday night at 10:00 p.m. on CBS. The original article can be found at the New York Times.<center></center>
