Radical as it will be the only CSI on air next year
It is a miniseries, the worse that can happen is they decide to burn off epsides after Last Call with Carson Daly

at its current ratings average, empire would be the top-rated drama on television going back at least 6 or 7 years, probably a little more.

Typically cable and broadcast are reported separately and I can't speak to differences in why enough to know if that's reasonable or not (ISTR there are material differences in repeat broadcast structures that make comparison not ideal, but maybe I'm misremembering), but I think TWD's most recent few seasons would beat it presuming an apples-to-apples comparison is possible.
First of all, it's original CSI, Miami and New York.
Secondly, they ARE case of the week.
Thirdly, the only thing that's really decent are the first 3 or so seasons of original CSI. However, you have to understand that at its best it was still just a very well-done procedural.

Miami is probably my favorite out of the 3.
Mainly because of the location and the cast.
It's a procedural, yes but I thought it was a fun watch.

New York was cool when each show had a different colour associated with them. CSI was green, Miami was red, and NY was blue and with the first couple of seasons, NY was filmed with an emphasis on blue on everything. It gave the show a neat look.
But other than that, it's not really any more remarkable than any other show as a procedural. Although, I will say, it was kind of strange when they decided to do an all Green Day episode where half the episode had no dialog. It was almost like a strange art project that someone managed to put on network TV.

Miami was the worst, I hated every single character.
Original CSI was the best, the first few seasons were entertaining and I liked the cast a lot.

I kinda like Miami because it was silly.
Never watched the original.

However I will say that New York had the best theme song by far.

The FX now app is the most buggiest piece of trash in existance.

It is.
On android, the app skips like a second of audio every 4 or 5 minutes. It's really annoying.
Plus it crashes a lot.
Holy shit I forgot they use to show that. Haha I haven't watched NBC after 11pm in years.
I liked the the wacky way people died, and the body camera.

Grissom? I liked the original but agree it got long in the tooth after a few seasons. Couldn't stomach Caruso and by the time New York came along the formula was stale.

It's hard to go back to CSI; a lot of the groundbreaking and interesting stuff about it is sort of passé now. But honestly I think it was pretty much the benchmark for procedural television for pretty much its first 4 or 5 seasons. Good tension at times, confident performances, interesting cases of the week, nice dark visual tone all around. I'm not sure I'd go back to watch it now, but at the time, good stuff.
I feel the same way about JAG.

Ive always wondered why NBC was the only network to air original content into 2am.

It works decently on the 360 now. But it took months to get to that point.
Whoa awesome.

Yeah it's pretty good on XBO now as well, and mostly importantly actually supports the cable channels I sub to (not just FX but FXX). It was a pretty dreadful app for a while though.
But... all CSI's with the exception of a couple of exterior shots here and there filmed entirely in Southern California...
This is true. It always amazed me how Miami was shot entirely in the evening. That must've been expensive to get like... 1 hour of film per day?

Wha? Miami had ALOT of day scenes, I would say it was the opposite, New York was WAY more night.

Yeah premieres in 2 weeks.
For some reason I thought it was TBS show
Is getting away with murder an American Crime?
Does The Odd Couple prove to be an Odd winner?
Really I just imagine people don't know if Big Bang episodes or new or repeats, not a question...
Will anyone plead Allegiance to this show?
All this and more on Thursdays Full numbers!

The original with Will Peterson is awesome.
Miami is good, but only because I thought of it as the comic-book version of CSI.
New York may be good, but I never watched it. (I like Gary Sinise, though.)

NBC unpledges Allegiance.

There's a rumor on SpoilerTV that "Person of Interest" has been picked up for a fifth season, but the source (someone was told by a crew member during a set visit) seems kinda shady to me.
Ivy, have you heard anything? Or anyone else, for that matter?
Would be an ace move on CBS' part.....love that show

It appears nobody's updating the OP. I was confused until I saw it hadn't been touched in a long time.
