I recently came across the first season of this series in DVD and took quite an interest in it. "CSI" has been among my favorite shows for the last couple of years. But I was a bit disappointed. I hope the feature characters got better fleshed out in later series.
The show is decent enough but seems to suffer from a luck of subtlety when handling several notable cases and suspects. Especially when compared to its parent-show "CSI".
Gil Grissom tends to be objective when handling his cases and makes it a point that investigators' personal issues should stay out of a case. In contrast to Horatio Caine who seems to take a much too personal interest in his cases. Grissom makes a point of his theories and/or conclusions being based on existing evidence. Caine seems to more often than not rely on a mere hunch.
Caine's team seems to be qualified enough but their leadership seems lacking.
