CSI Files

Captain
Even though the end of the November sweeps is fast approaching, CSI fans will still be able to enjoy new episodes of both CSI: Miami and CSI: New York next week.

First up on Monday at 10:00pm is CSI: Miami's "Shattered." Here's how CBS described the episode:

<font color=yellow><blockquote>The team is stunned when Delko is busted for purchasing marijuana. However, as the truth as to why becomes clearer, Horatio must fight to keep Delko at CSI. Meanwhile, after a suspected drug lord is gunned down in his home, evidence leads the CSIs to a dirty bounty hunter whose greed may have gotten in the way of bringing a criminal to justice.

</font></blockquote>The episode was directed by <font color=yellow>Scott Lautanen</font>, who this season also already helmed CSI: New York's "Grand Murder At Central Station." <font color=yellow>Ildy Modrovich</font>, who wrote "Shattered," this season also already worked on "Three-Way."

Below is a list of guest actors appearing in "Shattered:"

<ul>[*]<font color=yellow>Rex Linn</font> as Det. Frank Tripp[*]<font color=yellow>Eva LaRue</font> as Natalia Boa Vista[*]<font color=yellow>Dex Elliott Sanders</font> as Jay Fisher[*]<font color=yellow>Jeremiah W.

Besides recurring actors Rex Linn, Eva LaRue, Armando Valdez-Kennedy, David Lee Smith, Joshua Leonard, Brendan Fehr, Boti Bliss, Alana De La Garza, and Bellamy Young, none of the above actors have a previous connection to the CSI franchise.

Two days later, on Wednesday at 10:00pm, CBS is scheduled to air the CSI: New York episode "Jamalot." Here's what you can expect from the episode:

<font color=yellow><blockquote>When a game between rival teams, the Manhattan Minx and Brooklyn Clobbers, ends in the murder of the premier skater in the league, the CSIs must discover if her murder was an act of jealousy from one of her teammates or if she was killed by an opposing skater because of her competitive edge. Meanwhile, Danny and Sheldon investigate the death of a gifted writer who is found with the final chapter of his latest novel written on his entire body, leading them to believe that their suspect likely suffers from hypergraphia. Mia Sara guest stars as Cala Winger, victim Griffin Holden's book editor, who reports him missing and seems more concerned with the missing chapter from his manuscript than with his death.

</font></blockquote>Earlier this season, director <font color=yellow>Jonathan Glassner</font> already worked on CSI: Miami's "Three-Way." "Jamalot" was written by <font color=yellow>Andrew Lipsitz</font>, who also wrote "Corporate Warriors" a few weeks ago.

The following actors will be making a guest appearance on "Jamalot:"

<ul>[*]<font color=yellow>Robert Joy</font> as Dr. Sid Hammerback[*]<font color=yellow>Mia Sara</font> as Cala Winger[*]<font color=yellow>Noa Tishby</font> as Polly Part'em[*]<font color=yellow>Emma Bates</font> as Birdy of Prey[*]<font color=yellow>Robert Mailhouse</font> as Stan Vonner[*]<font color=yellow>Shawn Christian</font> as Coach Ryan Chisholm[*]<font color=yellow>Eric Lange</font> as Simon Winger[*]<font color=yellow>Jenna Gering</font> as Layla Vonner[*]<font color=yellow>David Starzyk</font> as Charles Holden[*]<font color=yellow>Derek Hughes</font> as John[*]<font color=yellow>Cameron Goodman</font> as She Hate Me/Rose[*]<font color=yellow>Matthew Frauman</font> as Eddie Jones[*]<font color=yellow>Tony Pasqualini</font> as Dr. Brandon Hardy[*]<font color=yellow>Shanti Wintergate</font> as Hallie On Wheels[*]<font color=yellow>Joshua Dov </font> as Griffin Holden[/list]

In contrast to this week's Miami episode, almost all of the actors appearing in "Jamalot" already have a previous connection to the CSI franchise, including recurring actor Robert Joy. Noa Tisby played Gloria Tynan / Gina Cusack in the first-season Miami episode "Double Cap," while Robert Mailhouse appeared on that show last year in "Game Over," playing Dave Strong. Shawn Christian was Patrick Haynes / Chad Matthews in the first-season original CSI episode "Table Stakes," and Eric Lange appeared as Kenny Bristol in last year's "Formalities," another episode of the original CSI. Jenna Gering played Alison Scott in the second-season CSI: Crime Scene Investigation episode "Scuba Doobie-Doo," and finally David Starzyk appeared in the third season of that show as Fred Stearns, in the episode "Got Murder?"

On Thursday, it will be the first of December, and as if by clockwork, CBS will be airing a rerun: this year's season premiere, "Bodies In Motion." In that episode, the forensic teams come back together under the leadership of Grissom and Catherine just in time to tackle three complex murder cases. Grissom and Catherine lead the team as they tackle three separate investigations: a murdered couple found in bed in a suspicious trailer explosion; a beautiful stripper discovered dead and dumped in the worst part of town; and two bodies found baked and decomposed after spending five days in the trunk of a car exposed to the hot Vegas sun, forcing the CSIs to "wrap" up the evidence and bring it back to the lab for further analysis.
