CSI: Vegas is an American crime drama television series that debuted on CBS on October 6, 2021. It is a follow-up to the long-running series CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, and the fifth series in the CSI franchise. The series stars Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, Mel Rodriguez, and Mandeep Dhillon as new characters. William Petersen and Jorja Fox reprise their roles from CSI: Crime Scene Investigation as Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle during the first season before departing, while Marg Helgenberger reprises her CSI: Crime Scene Investigation role as Catherine Willows beginning with season two. Wallace Langham, Paul Guilfoyle and Eric Szmanda also reprise their roles as David Hodges, Jim Brass and Greg Sanders, in a guest capacity.

Production

Development

Following the airing of the finale of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, in 2015, series creator Anthony E. Zuiker said the future of the characters would be that "Grissom and Sara ... [would still be] sailing the oceans, ... saving the environment, ... [would have] children, and they would dedicate their lives to the betterment of humanity. ... Catherine would still be running the crime lab, ... [Brass] probably would retire, ... and DB probably is working in the private sector in Washington DC. And I think that all these characters would still have their toe in the crime water."[40]

Soon after the cancellation of the last series in the franchise, CSI: Cyber, in 2016, it was announced that the producers were open to reviving the franchise. The CBS Entertainment president at the time, Glenn Geller, said, "We are incredibly proud of all CSI shows. It may come back in another incarnation."[41] On February 10, 2020, it was announced that an event series sequel to CSI: Crime Scene Investigation was being discussed, from Jason Tracey, CBS Studios, and Jerry Bruckheimer Television, with Tracey, Jerry Bruckheimer, and Jonathan Littman as executive producers.[42]

On August 10, 2020, it was announced that the series was still in development, now titled CSI: Vegas, with the original star of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, William Petersen, set to executive produce alongside Tracey, Bruckheimer, Littman, KirstieAnne Reed, Zuiker, Craig O'Neill, and Cynthia Chvatal.[43] In February 2021, the series was nearing a formal straight-to-series order. It was also announced that although it is being billed as an event series, it could become an ongoing series airing multiple seasons.[44]

On March 31, 2021, it was announced that CSI: Vegas had officially been ordered to series, with Uta Briesewitz directing the pilot.[45] On December 15, 2021, CBS renewed the series for a second season.[1] CBS Entertainment president Kelly Kahl confirmed that the second season will be longer than 13 episodes, although the network currently has "not done a final tally yet".[46] In October 2022, Anthony E. Zuiker teased that the second season will consist of at least 17 episodes.[47] It was later revealed that the season would comprise 21 episodes in total.[38] On February 21, 2023, CBS renewed CSI: Vegas for a third season,[3][4] which is scheduled to premiere on February 18, 2024, consisting only 10 episodes.[5]

Casting

On February 10, 2020, it was announced that two of the original stars of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, Petersen and Jorja Fox, were in talks to potentially reprise their roles as Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle.[42] On August 10, 2020, it was announced that Petersen and Fox were still in negotiations to return, and that casting was under way for five new characters.[43]

On February 12, 2021, it was revealed that Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, and Mel Rodriguez had been cast in the series. Lauria and Rodriguez both previously guest-starred as different characters in the franchise. It was also revealed that Petersen and Fox were finalizing their deals.[44] On March 31, 2021, it was announced that Mandeep Dhillon had been cast in the series.[48]

Later that day, it was revealed that Wallace Langham would reprise his role as David Hodges, and Petersen and Fox were officially announced as being cast.[45] On May 3, 2021, it was announced that Jamie McShane had been cast in a recurring role and that Paul Guilfoyle would reprise his role as Jim Brass in two episodes.[49] In September 2021, Zuiker hinted that additional CSI: Crime Scene Investigation characters may make appearances in the series.[50]

On December 15, 2021, it was announced alongside the second season renewal that Petersen won't return as a cast member, though he would remain as executive producer. On January 25, 2022, it was announced that Fox will also not return for the second season.[51] Two days later, it was announced that Rodriguez would leave ahead of the second season as well.[52] On February 11, 2022, it was announced that Marg Helgenberger will reprise her role as Catherine Willows in the second season.[53] On May 24, 2022, it was announced that recurring actor Jay Lee would be upgraded to series regular and that Lex Medlin and Ariana Guerra would join the cast as regulars.[54] On December 15, 2022, it was reported that Eric Szmanda would reprise his role as Greg Sanders in several episodes during the latter half of the second season.[55][56]

Filming

On August 10, 2020, it was announced that filming was planned to start in the fall of 2020, whenever COVID-19 conditions permitted Hollywood production to resume.[43] On January 8, 2021, it was announced that the series is set to begin production in early 2021.[57] Filming began May 4, 2021, and was scheduled to run until November 4, 2021, in Los Angeles, California.[58] On August 22, 2021, it was reported that Petersen had been taken to a hospital after becoming ill during filming.[59]
