That, and all those shots of Lt. Caine reflecting on the day's deeds while looking out at the vast rusty ball of the sun setting over the water. I was not aware Miami was famous for such sunsets, considering that the ocean is to the east.
Also, who could forget the episode where Callie, in an effort avoid a traffic jam on the causeway, takes the "back way" from Miami Beach to downtown Miami and ends up driving through a swamp in a rural area.
I used to be a big devotee of the various CSI's back in the day. They really ignited an interest in forensics... which taught me how incredibly unrealistic those shows were... which is why I stopped watching them.
