CSI: New York's second season has just begun filming, but <font color=yellow>Eddie Cahill</font> (Don Flack) is already back into the swing of things. After playing the caustically funny, clever New York city detective for a season, Cahill is looking forward to exploring his character's roots and his witty sense of humor as well as the city the show is named after as it progresses into the second season. Cahill, who has racked up some high profile film (Miracle, Lords of Dogtown) and television (Friends, Glory Days) credits at only twenty-seven, took time to speak to CSI Files about the new season and why he's already enjoying the new feel of the show.
CSI Files: How's the new season going so far?
Eddie Cahill: So far, so good. So far, so great, actually. It'skicked off to a good start.
CSI Files: Are there any exciting storylines coming up for yourcharacter?
Cahill: I think it's premature to say that, at least from mycharacter's standpoint. The most notable change is that there's been anincredible visual overhaul to the show in terms of wardrobe, in terms oflighting. They've scrapped the sets; they've built this really beautiful,very workable, aesthetically pleasing lab set; each room plays into thenext so it opens up the show to have a lot of movement and a good pacewhich I think will add to the feeling of New York.
CSI Files: Have you noticed more of a New York feel to the showso far in the scenes you've filmed this season?
Cahill: Absolutely, I have. It's all new to me; we have a lot ofnew people on the crew and the sets have been so overwhelming in apositive way that that's really been where my focus has been. Each roomoffers a view of New York City. It's really open, it's really glassy.You will see the girth of New York City bearing down on the office. It'sbeen invited into the office space, which I think is great because itessentially is the lead character of the show.
CSI Files: You guys shoot in LA-are the sets really able tocreate a New York feel on the set?
Cahill:: Yeah, I think so. I don't think one department does italone. I think the actors have their job [and] the writers have their job withregards to bringing New York to the show. I think on those two frontswe've got it as handled can be expected. Then they do all sorts of thingslike [have] a second unit going to New York or they'll bring [theactors] to New York. My point is that one aspect of it doesn't do it; [it happens] whenall the pieces come together.
CSI Files: Have the actors been to New York yet this season toshoot?
