''CSI'' is a media franchise of American television programs created by Anthony E. Zuiker. The first three ''CSI'' series follow the work of forensic scientists as they unveil the circumstances behind mysterious deaths, while the fourth series, ''CSI: Cyber'', emphasizes behavioral psychology and how it can be applied to cyber forensics. ''CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,'' which began in 2000, concluded its sixteenth and final season on September 27, 2015. Starring William Petersen, Ted Danson, Marg Helgenberger, Elisabeth Shue, and Laurence Fishburne, the series concluded its run with a two-hour finale entitled ''Immortality''. The series original lead characters, Gil Grissom and Catherine Willows, were based upon LVMPD Crime Scene Analysts Daniel Holstein and Yolanda McClary.〔Staff (December 5, 2000).

''Miami'' stars David Caruso, Kim Delaney, and Emily Procter, with its lead character, Horatio Caine, based upon LAPD bomb squad technician Detective John Haynes.〔Scheiber, Dave (January 1, 2004). ("Crossing the line" ). ''St. Petersburg Times''. Retrieved March 17, 2015.〕 In 2004, ''CSI: Miami'' spun off ''CSI: NY'', the third series in the franchise and the only indirect spin-off of ''CSI''. It was canceled after nine seasons on May 10, 2013.〔Goldberg, Lesley (May 10, 2013). ("CBS Cancels ''CSI: NY'' After Nine Seasons" ). ''The Hollywood Reporter''. Retrieved May 10, 2013.〕 The series stars Gary Sinise, Melina Kanakaredes, and Sela Ward. In 2014, ''CSI'' spun off ''CSI: Cyber'', its second direct spin-off and the fourth series in the franchise. ''Cyber'' premiered in 2015, and stars Patricia Arquette and franchise alum Ted Danson – the only actor to appear as a series regular in more than one ''CSI'' series. The lead character, Avery Ryan, was inspired by cyber-psychologist Mary Aiken who is attached to the series as a producer.〔Hibberd, James (March 5, 2014). ("Patricia Arquette to star in ''CSI'' spinoff" ). ''Entertainment Weekly''.〕 As of November 29, 2015, 787 episodes of the ''CSI'' franchise have aired. ==Overview== The CSI franchise is available in 200 territories with an audience of two billion people.〔Gilbert, Gerard (December 19, 2006). ("''CSI'': The cop show that conquered the world" ). ''The Independent''. Retrieved April 22, 2007.〕 Various spin-offs have been developed to cater for the market including novels, comic books, and computer games. The franchise has had a large cultural impact. It has spawned what has been called the "''CSI'' effect", in which juries often have unreasonable expectations of real-life forensics because of what they have seen on ''CSI''. Equally, the new-found popularity of forensics dramas on television has led to an increase in applications for courses dealing with forensic science or archaeological science—in the United Kingdom applications are up by 30%.〔Hackett, Paul (March 28, 2007). ("Want a career in forensics? Here's some hard evidence" ). ''The Guardian''. Retrieved April 22, 2007.〕 The franchise is so influential that fellow CBS show ''How I Met Your Mother'' advertised itself as "not a Crime Scene Investigation show".〔CBS (August 20, 2007). ("''How I Met Your Mother'' -- CSI: Style" ). YouTube. Retrieved February 19, 2014.〕 In some ways the franchise may also fill a cultural need: However, the "''CSI'' effect" also has a negative side, as criminals are frequently covering up evidence that could be used to trace them using techniques learned by watching CSI and other shows in the same genre.〔Rowlands, Ted (February 15, 2006).
