Are you ready to return to the world of CSI? Three actors have been cast in the CSI: Vegas sequel series project. If it gets the go-ahead from CBS, Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, and Mel Rodriguez will star in the new series which focuses on the CSI team in Las Vegas. William Petersen and Jorja Fox (above) are working on deals to also return to the franchise.
Though it was initially conceived as a one-time event series, CSI: Vegas could become an ongoing show. The possibility of a sequel series was first mentioned last February as a way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the franchise.
Deadline revealed the following about the plot of the CSI: Vegas revival series:
“Facing an existential threat that could bring down the Crime Lab, a brilliant team of forensic investigators must welcome back old friends and deploy new techniques to preserve and serve justice in Sin City.”

What do you think? Are you excited for the return of CSI on CBS? Would you watch the new CSI: Vegas?
Yes them back everybody.
Love this! I live in Vegas & would love to get a walk on part. Loved Marg, George, Gary, Eric & Wallace but will take any of the returnees you can get. We’ve got to get Covid under control so the entertainment industry can really get back on its feet. *My CSI tee just went to the rag pile last year! So now I can get an updated one.
Yes please, loved all of CSI but would be extra brilliant if Peterson and jorja are in it, familiar faces will encourage watching for fans
I would absolutely watch
Loved all the original CSI programs. Would watch again if they were on. This idea sounds great.
Yes. Loved all of the CSI shows.
Never use to watch I heard really good interesting crime show more into NCIS franchise series.
Have been a fan for all the CSI shows. Hope this one is as good. I have been rewatching CSI : MIAMI. Can’t wait for the new one.
Love it,Can’t wait!!!!
I just finished watching all the csi franchises, and was just wishing they’d bring it back! Vegas and Miami were my favorites! Can’t wait!
So excited for a return of CSI! I always watched the reruns at 5am, and they took them off, ugh!!! Would love to see everyone back,, but I’ll take the great actors that are returning!
I would watch this series. I love these shows.
CANT WAIT…LOSING CSI & CRIMINAL MINDS WAS SOOO DEPRESSING…I LOVE THOSE SHOWS
Hooray!! We have really missed CSI! Too bad we can’t have everyone back!
My husband and I will always be fans of this series, and we realize its acting and choreographed. Its not just good entertainment it opens the imagination and invites gifted youth into the possibility of extending professional skill to other career paths. Particularly individuals who know science and defending the public is their calling.
