First, I think it is inappropriate to rate the show based on how it downloaded. That is a delivery issue. Customers who see a rating interpret it as a rating of the show itself.Second, I rate CSI highly because it is so well produced, so creative, and has such good acting. (And also, it doesn't hurt to have gorgeous people like Marg Helgenberger (sp?) on the set!) I can relate to the viewer who said they had grown tired of CSI. I had the same experience, but after a hiatus I now enjoy it as much as before. Anything, even ice cream, gets boring after a while.CSI is as good entertainment as any ice cream is good food.
