CSI Files

Captain
In a recent interview with Indian Television, actor <font color=yellow>Gary Sinise</font> (Mac Taylor) revealed how long he will remain on New York, and why he decided to go into television.

Fans who worried about losing the actor back to the movie industry need not worry anymore. At least not for a while. "I have signed on for six years," Sinise told the website. "Six seasons. We do 23 episodes a year, and if it goes that long, you know."

Though Sinise has admitted on various interviews his preference for movies over television, the actor didn't dismiss the advantages New York provides. "I know I have this. It's a quality show. It's got room to grow. I'm making a good living. I work at home. I don't have to think about that part of my life like what I'm going to do next and that, and I decided to trade off the unknowing for the knowing."

The actor also discussed his crime scene research, which he actually got to do before CSI came around. "You know, years ago when I was doing a character in Ransom that <font color=yellow>Ron Howard</font> directed with <font color=yellow>Mel Gibson</font>, I spent some time with some crime scene investigators then. So I didn't feel like I had to go out and do it again. I had seen enough when I was with him."

"It's not the kind of work that I would want to do," the actor added. "I have a respect for people that can kind of do that, and they're very scientific. They're scientists, and they have to shut down kind of an emotional part of their brain and look at things from purely a scientific kind of perspective."

In the rest of the interview, Sinise discussed the advantages the show provides and his view of real-life CSIs. Head over to Indian Television.com to read it.<center></center>
