== Alex Woods return in Season 8 ==
==Expanding article==
{{Resolved|1=It's already aired, and the material was correct; she's appeared in several S08 episodes.}}
I agree with the first comment. And maybe expanding the article as a whole. Comparing this article with the other CSI pages it is quite bleak.
It has not been announced that Khandi Alexander is returning as Alex Woods in Season 8, and unless that can be proved by providing a link, please don't add the name in. Thanks!


== Horatio Caine ==
== External links modified ==


Hello fellow Wikipedians,
There is no [[Horatio Caine]], this, very simply is appauling. I don't have much knowledge of CSI:M, but I'll do my best. [[User:Computerjoe|Computerjoe]][[User talk:Computerjoe|<span style="color:red">'s talk</span>]] 17:42, 4 May 2006 (UTC)


I have just modified one external link on [[CSI: Miami]]. Please take a moment to review [[special:diff/814917833|my edit]]. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit [[User:Cyberpower678/FaQs#InternetArchiveBot|this simple FaQ]] for additional information. I made the following changes:

Is there a perceived difference between the different CSI shows, stylistically, treatment of themes, or in any other way? [[User:Hakluyt bean|Hakluyt bean]] 13:58, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


{{sourcecheck|checked=false|needhelp=}}
It might be something worth researching. Personally, i think the Miami version quickly went from a prettier version of CSI (Vegas) to something more in keeping with the Michael Mann Miami Vicedays. I cannot say its an improvement. I always thought the series wwas to focus around the evidence, and the characters' lives were secondary. This holds true int he other two series but not here. I think it suffers for the reliance on weak characterization and back story.[[User:Arcayne|Arcayne]] 08:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)


Cheers.—[[User:InternetArchiveBot|'''<span style="color:darkgrey;font-family:monospace">InternetArchiveBot</span>''']] <span style="color:green;font-family:Rockwell">([[User talk:InternetArchiveBot|Report bug]])</span> 18:04, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
In my opinion, each of the CSIs has a different focus (and catchphrase!). [[Gil Grissom]] is constantly saying "follow the evidence," so I think of [[CSI: Crime Scene Investigation]] as focusing mostly on the science and techniques used to catch criminals. [[Horatio Caine]] of [[CSI: Miami]] always says, "We never close." There's a great deal of emphasis on action, explosions, and excitement. And for [[CSI: NY]], good old [[Mac Taylor]] professes "Everything is connected." I think it is the closest of the CSIs to a pure detective drama, just finding out who the bad guy is. Just as an example of how the shows are different from each other: throughout the entire first season of CSI: NY, Mac wears a suit and tie and we don't see a problem. But when Keppler ([[Liev Schreiber]]) shows up on the original in similar attire, he gets funny looks from everyone. [[User:DreamroseTavua|DreamroseTavua]] 21:14, 23 February 2007 (UTC)


== Character articles redirected ==
== DVD information consolidation ==


A quick heads up that all the characters that remained were redirected earlier this month. I have resurrected and stubbed [[Horatio Caine]], and think I have now succeeded in demonstrating notability. Not sure about the notability of the other characters, if anyone cares to have a go at resuscitating them? [[User:Espresso Addict|Espresso Addict]] <small>([[User talk:Espresso Addict|talk]])</small> 00:58, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
I originally consolidated the spread-out information presented here on [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=CSI:_Miami&oldid=61394673 30 June]. After an unbelievable '''52''' edits by [[User:84.27.209.61|84.27.209.61]], this information was unnecessarily re-expanded to include the same information requiring thrice the amount of space and thrice as prolix. I have re-consolidated the information, and have left both of the previously included images present. While I feel having both images is superflous, I can concede an argument for one from each region. I have removed the sizing specifications for the images to lend some actual legibility to them — otherwise they're coloured blogs of irrecognizability. — '''[[User:pd_THOR|<span style="color:#CC0000;">pd_THOR</span>]]''' <sup>|''' [[User_talk:pd_THOR|=/\=]]</sup> | 11:40, 11 July 2006 (UTC)


:@[[User:Espresso Addict|Espresso Addict]] Why would you do something so stupid? Also beyond a waste of time by deleting the pages of all of the other characters? This is otherworldly idiotic. [[Special:Contributions/2600:4809:7270:F800:35CE:B341:10AB:1F5|2600:4809:7270:F800:35CE:B341:10AB:1F5]] ([[User talk:2600:4809:7270:F800:35CE:B341:10AB:1F5|talk]]) 13:45, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
== Episode references ==

The references to the episodes need to be consistent. Currently, they are formatted in a few different ways. We should probably standardize them. Each episode reference should have the episode in quotes. I don't have time to do it now, just throwing it out there. One of us will get to it! --[[User:EmmSeeMusic|EmmSeeMusic]] 22:56, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Maybe you need to check the Ryan Wolfe parts cause i swear he left the show because he got shot in the eye? Does he come back in series 5? I don't know because series 5 isn't in the UK yet.

CSI: Miami has morphed with Star Trek!
I recently watched this season's first episode (2006-07). Evidently, they would have us believe that Caine and that other guy solved the crime by running around Rio, all in daylight, and then returned to Miami, again in daylight, wearing the same clothes and so evidently the same day. I checked on Expedia and the quickest flight I saw was 8 hours, but I actually have no idea how long it takes to fly from Rio to Miami. Either that, or, they used the transporter from Star Trek.[[User:Dunstanramsey|Dunstanramsey]] 05:07, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

== Other Goofs ==

I've seen a ''Miami'' episode a week ago (not sure about recency), where a young modeling agency employee is killed when she puts lipstick on that is laced with cyanide. During her convulsions, one of the characters (I think it was Delko) states that there is no antitode for cyanide poisoning to another while they both watch her die in the interrogation room.

If someone knows what episode this happens in, perhaps this could be added in the ''Goofs'' section. — [[User:Dorvaq|Dorvaq]] <small>([[User_talk:Dorvaq|talk]])</small> 16:49, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

:Well, depending on how strong the dose was, it might have been untreatable, but it probably was a goof, as there are treatments for cyanide poisonoing.--[[User:Vercalos|Vercalos]] 01:32, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

== Marisols last words ==

I've just seen the episode where Marisol dies, and I don't think her last words as described in this article are correct. They were something like this:

H: I've got a dinner apointment tonight.
M: Casa Tua?
H: Casa Tua. You're not going to stand me up, are you?
M: Wouldn't dream of it.
--[[User:84.107.147.58|84.107.147.58]] 20:47, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

== Other recurring characters ==

Shouldn't Walter Resden and Joseph Ratner be included under recurring characters? I'd do it myself, but I haven't watched the show enough to give a summary of either character(having only a vague idea who Resden is, and no clue who Ratner is).--[[User:Vercalos|Vercalos]] 01:13, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

== Rap Sheet ==

In the episode called ''Rap Sheet'', a bodyguard is shot and killed. The team believes that the shooter was after the rap singer whom the body guard was protecting, and they later get a match when the singer gets shot at again during a drive by. However, in the end, it turns out that the shooter wasn't aiming for the singer at all, just the body guard, who he was under order to shoot down. If that is so, why did he try and shoot the singer again during the drive-by shooting? [[User:JackOfHearts|JackOfHearts]] 04:15, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

== Airdates of CSI: Miami ==

I have listed [[Airdates of CSI: Miami]] for AfD. The nomination can be found [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Airdates of CSI: Miami|here]]. Thanks. -- [[User:Wikipedical|Wikipedical]] 20:44, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

== Eric Delko ==

Why is he already under discontinued characters? He's not dead yet! [[User:Zazaban|Zazaban]] 00:54, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

:I agree. I mean he looks like hes dead, but who knows. Looks can be decieveing.[[User:Disembarkedone|Disembarkedone]] 02:18, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

:According to this link http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/02/05/earlyshow/leisure/celebspot/main2431611.shtml "We come close to losing him and it takes us two hours, two Monday nights to fix the story and get him back to health and, thank God, we do because he's very important to us," Caruso said." I have reverted back the edit. [[User:Disembarkedone|Disembarkedone]] 02:27, 7 February 2007 (UTC)


wait so he doesnt die next week?


[Censored]


so much for a cliffhanger

someone should really put a spoiler warning here :p [[User:SniperSarge|SniperSarge]] 00:44, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
:My onscreen tv-guide says someone dies on the team, and no one else has a near fatal wound. --[[User:TeckWiz|'''TeckWiz''']]<sup>[[User_talk:TeckWiz|Parlate]]</sup><small>[[Special:Contributions/TeckWiz|Contribs]]<sub>[[User:TeckWiz/@|@]]</sub></small> 00:53, 8 February 2007 (UTC)<br />
::Never trust TV guides. They're so full of speculation and hype that it amazes me. I've heard nothing about the actor leaving the show, and believe me, that would be significant news for such a popular TV series. So don't bury poor Delko until they do so on screen! (And even then don't trust it too much. They buried Ray Caine, didn't they?) [[User:DreamroseTavua|DreamroseTavua]] 17:48, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

==Out of control trivia section==

I've removed the trivia and goofs section as they were massively overloaded with useless information. A few bits could be useful in expanding the main body of the article, but very few. In the interests of preservation, I'm moving the stuff I cut out to [[Talk:CSI: Miami/Trivia]]. See [[WP:AVTRIV]] and [[WP:TRIVIA]] for Wikipedia community stance on this general issue. [[User:Mangojuice|Mango]][[Special:Contributions/Mangojuice|<font color="orange">'''juice'''</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:Mangojuice|talk]]</sup> 04:10, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

== Calleigh Duquesne ==

Can anyone confirm [[Calleigh Duquesne]]'s rank? Other contributers say that she is a lieutenant now (i.e., [[Horatio Caine|Horatio's]] rank). Is this true? If so, in what episode did her promotion take place? [[User:DreamroseTavua|DreamroseTavua]] 20:38, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

== Levels ==
Are Detective level higher 3 or 1? If it's Level 1 detective, are that higher then 3. level detective? --[[User:81.197.166.21|81.197.166.21]] 18:33, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Assuming that it follows the same pattern as in CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, a level 3 is higher in rank than a level 1. Example: In CSI: Vegas, Nick Stokes was promoted in the pilot episode to CSI level 3, and in the series two episode "Chasing the Bus", he recalls his first scene as (quote) "CSI-1, as green as can be".
