Fans of CSI: New York can rest easy. The Friday night series was looking like it might be cancelled but has now been renewed for an eighth season.
Starring Gary Sinise, CSI: NY investigations follows the investigations of a team of forensic scientists and police officers in the Big Apple. It began in the fall of 2004 and currently co-stars AJ Buckley, Anna Belknap, Carmine Giovinazzo, Eddie Cahill, Hill Harper, Robert Joy, and Sela Ward.
CBS moved CSI: NY to Friday nights this season, leading many to believe that it was on its way out. The ratings have declined over the years and naturally took a big hit when it was moved. Still, the show has performed better than most other shows of the night and currently averages a 1.8 in the 18-49 demographic and more than 10 million viewers.
According to Deadline, the decision to renew came right down to the wire. Contributing factors that pushed it over the edge include the fact that the show has a profitable syndication deal and also does quite well in international sales.
Though the TV series will be back for an eighth season, it’s not decided how many episodes will be ordered. Unlike the others, it may end up being a 13 episodes season.
What do you think? Are you glad to hear that CSI: NY will return for season eight?

I LOVE CSI NEW YORK. IT’S MY FAVORITE CSI. I THOUGHT WHEN KANAKAREDES LEFT THAT IT WOULD BE LESS INTERESTING BUT THE REPLACEMENT IS INCREDIBLE AND GARY SINISE AND THE REST OF THE CAST ARE INCREDIBLE. THANK YOU FOR KEEPING IT ON LINE. CSI MIAMI IS ALSO GREAT AND A FAVORITE. CSI WITH THE NEW GUY IS WAAAY BETTER THAN EVER.
to whom it may concern PLEASE DONT CANCEL MY SHOW MY WIFE AND I LOVE TO WATCH
For goodness sake….you have winners with all of the CSI programs. CSI New York and Blue Blood made Friday night TV worth watching.
Please don’t cancel CSI New York! One of my favorites.
I agree with all the positive comments. Friday, Monday @ 10, Tuesday from8 on and Wednesday after 9 are the only really good nights on TV. Saturday night stinks. Not everyone is 27 and out dancing on Saturday night! I guess that’s what Redbox is for.
please don’t take csi ny off; i love this show.
please do not cancel csi ny i look forward to that every friday night thanks
THANK YOU FOR RENEWING CSI:NY – IT TRULY IS MY FAVORITE SHOW. MAC TAYLOR AND HIS TEAM ARE THE BEST. WHEN WILL IT RETURN. ALL THE CSI’S ARE GREAT, BUT NY IS THE BEST.
KEEP IT ON – WE LUV IT
WOW, you just made my day when I see your’ renewed. One of the BEST! Thank You! I watch all the CSI shows and love them all and to think any of them would be cancelled is heart wrenching! Keep the Good shows on PLEASE, All the CSIs, Unforgettable, Gifted Man , Blue Blood just to name a few.
I too say it is by far the best of the three. Please keep it going. We love Gary Sinise, but we don’t care much for Ted Danson. Also like David Caruso. Hands down, CSI New York is the BEST.
Thanks for keeping CSI New York! Finally had something worthwhile on Friday nights. You can get rid of CSI: Miami any time.
enjoyed watching CSI NY is a great show. please do not cancel out of all CSI’S shows liked watching this one the best.
the best of the threecsi—-need to keep it on the air
Please renew CSI New York. It is one of my favorite TV shows. If you want to cancel a show, cancel CSI Miami!!!
Please keep CSI New York on. We love it. Can’t stand the one you put in place of it on Friday night. Why this one? I would rather see one of the other CSI’s go.
Just when it wax enjoyable to watch TV on Friday night again, you take a well written and acted show, CSI New York off the air! The plots of CSI NY always taught a lesson that did not feed off degrading all the characters. compared to the Reality Shows that just continue to show the nasty, lying, cut throat attitude that glorifies getting ahead at all costs! Please renew CSI NY for the entire season.
I agree
