What Parents Need to Know
About CSI: Crime Scene Investigation
Parents need to know that this popular crime show features strong doses of graphic violence, as well as lots of blood, drug use, and sexual situations. Although the series' focus is on solving crimes and seeking justice, the violence is sometimes gratuitous. Character development is much less important than depicting the crimes; as a consequence, the show lacks a certain emotional resonance.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about why the show repeatedly focuses on abuse against vulnerable people. Is this a reflection of reality? How do kids feel when they see gory images, even in the context of scientific discovery? Another angle of discussion could focus on the science depicted in the show. What fascinates kids about the methods the investigators use to solve the crimes? Do you think the show's use of technology is realistic?

Great T.V show, but not For Kids!
This is my favorite T.V show. Although there is not much actual violence (there is still enough to make the show TV-14) , there are gruesome and realistic depictions of dead bodies. Sometimes the killer kills someone after sex so there are a couple episodes with couples kissing passionately. NOT for kids.

A good show with goot characters and role models telling kids not to do drugs, murder, etc.
While not being overtly violent, the gratuitous blood and gore will definately make some uneasy.

Pretty Good
I honestly love this show. A little bad, since they often talk about rape and murder, and they often use the words b***h, a**, ect., but I have a younger sister who also enjoys this, so if your kid can handle mature TV shows, I'd strongly suggest this.

It a good show.
Its a good show but I rather watch NCIS because of the techie's reactions and she has the most funny moments :] I'm one of those people who likes to watch mysteries. Even though this could be fake, but might happned in the real world.
