A sequel to the original hit drama is on the way next season.
March 31, 2021
CBS announced today that a sequel to the hit procedural drama 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation' has been given an official series order. CSI: Vegas will be part of the network's lineup for the upcoming 2021-2022 season, and some familiar faces will be making a return.
William Petersen and Jorja Fox will be reprising their roles as Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle, back in the city where it all began. They will be joined by a brilliant new team of forensic investigators in the crime lab as they utilize new techniques in order to serve justice in Sin City - all while facing an existential threat that could bring down their operation.
The original 'CSI' premiered over 20 years ago and became one of the most-watched dramas of its time. The show lasted 15 seasons and tallied 335 episodes, earning six Emmy Awards along the way. It spawned three spin-offs, 'CSI: Miami', 'CSI: New York', and 'CSI: Cyber'. Miami and New York found their own success, airing 10 and 9 seasons respectively. Cyber didn't fare as well, lasting only two seasons.

More stuff rolling off the Hollywood garbage truck. Just foolish left-wing grandstanding.
Nice language, low IQ Don....

I'm in!! I loved the original with Gil & Sara and was sad to see it canceled. I'm not a fan of reboots but this could work (fingers crossed)

I guess coming up with new ideas is no longer viable so it's either reality of revamps. With such great TV's being sold for small fortunes I really need something new to watch on it

This is the same show with a new name and supporting cast. Although obviously only two of the old cast returned. How will they explain the missing cast members? retirement? Idnk. Some were fired for various reasons. one , the front desk lady (a small role for many years) was murdered by her own daughter which really was a bad deal. but others were phased out due to aging or cutting of cast members etc.

I knew it was only a matter of time until CSI made a comeback. I look forward to watching it.

The first CSI was set in Vegas. So they're just rebooting or rebranding that original show. No other crime ridden cities for them to work with? I can think of more than a few.
