CSI Files
Captain
Information about the new season comes to light for all three members of the <I>CSI</I> franchise.<p>CSI Files previously posted a <A class="link" HREF="http://www.csifiles.com/news/130709_02.shtml">spoiler report</a> for the premiere of <I>CSI: Miami</I>'s eighth season. Spoilers are always subject to change, and <I>Miami</I>'s premiere is no exception. The original details that suggested <font color=yellow>Rory Cochrane</font> would reprise his role as Tim Speedle in the episode's flashback have become more vague. Now it is not known whether Speedle will return.<p>One person that will definitely appear in the flashback is <font color=yellow>Eddie Cibrian</font>. As CSI Files previously <A class="link" HREF="http://www.csifiles.com/news/250609_01.shtml">reported</a>, Cibrian will be a series regular starting in season eight. In the flashback, Cibrian's character will cross paths with at least one of the main characters. Executive producer <font color=yellow>Ann Donahue</font> told <A class="link" HREF="http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/">Ausiello</a> that the original reports indicating that Cibrian's character would be transferring from the Hollywood division are "a misnomer... He's actually worked robbery homicide in L.A."<p>Donahue also revealed how the season premiere will begin. Eric Delko (<font color=yellow>Adam Rodriguez</font>) will be found "in the first two minutes and he is unconscious," she told Ausiello. The character's trip to the hospital transitions into the episode's flashback. "The ambulance is hurtling down alligator alley and we [close in] on the license plate, which says '09. And then we change the license plate to '97 and suddenly he's in his tow truck." The <I>Miami</I> premiere will air September 21 at 10:00pm ET/PT.<p>Over on <I>CSI: New York</I>, the premiere of season six will finally answer the question of who was injured in the shootout at the end of the season five finale, <A class="link" HREF="http://www.csifiles.com/episodes/newyork/season5/pay_up.shtml">"Pay Up"</a>. According to CSI Files sources, Danny Messer (<font color=yellow>Carmine Giovinazzo</font>) was caught in the crossfire and finds himself in a wheelchair at the start of the new season. <A class="link" HREF="http://www.tvguide.com/">TV Guide</a> indicates that his injuries will be a "major obstacle" that add to the pressure as he and fellow CSI Lindsay Monroe (<font color=yellow>Anna Belknap</font>) try to balance work, marriage and caring for their young daughter, Lucy. The premiere airs September 23 at 10:00pm ET/PT.<p>Details have also been revealed for the premiere of <I>CSI: Crime Scene Investigation</I>'s tenth season, which will air on September 24 at 9:00pm ET/PT. A young actress whose career is on the rise gets killed in a car accident. Her stalker takes credit for her death, but the team soon discovers that there is more to the story.<p>The original information about <I>Miami</I>'s premiere is from <A class="link" HREF="http://ausiellofiles.ew.com/2009/07/ask-ausiello-spoilers-on-greys-bones-and-more/comments/page/2/">Ausiello</a>.
