This is a fascinating and mostly accurate extended look at the world of science in the service of law enforcement. The quality of the acting, the sets, and the story lines are fascinating. This show was the most watched t.v. show in the world for several years and I can understand why that is true. I tended not to pay attention to and to bypass the commentaries often made by the shows' writers, and this may have been a mistake because when I did listen to them, they often pointed out subtleties that I had entirely missed. This season mentioned here was the inaugural one for a series that ran for something like 15 years and 300+ episodes, a measure of how engaging it is. The inaccuracies, mostly about the scientific procedures, are by and large minor and not much important. A caution: some of the shows, especially the later ones, are conceptually and graphically very gruesome, and you can't always see this coming. But that shortcoming aside, I'd give it rave reviews, one of the best series ever, and an A+
