Summary of C.S.I. Miami - The Complete Fourth Season

The season, which ran during 2005-2006, includes a crossover episode with CSI: New York. Unfortunately, only the Miami segment is included on this set, leaving viewers to wonder what happened in Part 2 when Caine and Mac Taylor (Gary Sinise) team up to capture a serial killer who locks children in the closet while he murders their parents. Still, there are some excellent episodes on this set, including one where a team of scam artists pose as father and children to steal a slew of money from the local country club Richie Riches. Another involves a group of college kids intent on recreating the violence they've played on a Grand Theft Auto-type of videogame. In many ways, this season is more about style than substance. Why else would there be avant-garde subtitles for one sequence where the criminal is speaking perfectly coherent English? More so than in previous seasons, there is a soap opera mentality to the show that's entertaining, but out of place in this series. Horatio is involved in a doomed romance, there's a romantic triangle between colleagues, and all too much is made of a possible mole within the lab who is leaking confidential information. While Caine's whispered threats lend a certain entertaining cachet to the show, his preening gets old fast. When he enters a room, Caine plants himself into a theatrical stance that makes him look less like a tough guy than one of Charlie's Angels. Too bad there's not a swab that can fix that. --Jae-Ha Kim
