Review of CSI: Miami

CSI: Miami (2002–2012)
8/10
"If he's Tom Brokaw, I'm Elliot Ness."

I love this show. I understand why some never got its appeal. It's over the top absurd. This show was never meant to represent a reality. I view it as a comic book. A colorful graphic noir full of superhero posing and one-liners. Horatio Caine attempts to embody every flatfoot ever portrayed on TV and film, from Barney Fife to Philip Marlowe, all within a singular amalgam of personality. That's his superpower. Horatio is confidence supreme. It's hilarious, and for me, as fun as anything on TV. For reasons I completely understand, this show is viewed as bad for some. As for myself, those same reasons are what makes CSI: Miami all the more irresistible.
