1 | * ActingForTwo: |
2 | ** In "Show Stopper," Creator/LucyHale plays [[spoiler: a pop star and her BodyDouble, who's killed in the opening]]. |
3 | ** In "Triple Threat," Creator/ColinFerguson plays [[spoiler: the supposed victim and the man he'd paid to become his body double.]] In the same episode, Creator/LeslieBibb plays [[spoiler:triplets who are conning Colin's character into thinking they're his singular wife]]. |
4 | * CaliforniaDoubling: Except for the season opening episodes, the show was not filmed in Miami (which may explain the random mountains out of nowhere). Considering ''[[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Space Mountain]]'' is the third-highest point in the entire state of Florida, anything with a higher elevation than an anthill is out of place in Miami. |
5 | ** "Miami-Dade PD Headquarters" is actually the main office of a federal credit union near LAX. |
6 | * CareerResurrection: For Creator/DavidCaruso, bringing him out of eight years of mediocrity following his ill-advised decision to leave ''Series/NYPDBlue'' to focus on his film career after its first season. |
7 | * CreatorBacklash: Music/RobZombie wasn't very happy with his director effort for "L.A.", calling it the worst two weeks of his life, citing a lack of creative freedom and not getting along with Creator/DavidCaruso. |
8 | * FakeNationality: Colombian American Yelina Salas is played by Swiss American (of Italian-Greek descent) actress Sofia Milos. |
9 | * HostilityOnTheSet: If Music/RobZombie is to be believed, Creator/MalcolmMcDowell bullied Creator/DavidCaruso during the filming of "L.A.". If this was McDowell's way of taking Zombie's side is as of yet unspecified. |
10 | * LifeImitatesArt: An image of Natalie Morales, who plays Natalia Boa Vista's sister Anya, was found among the many, many photographs of SerialKiller[=/=]''The Dating Game'' contestant [[http://www.cracked.com/article_19505_5-real-murderers-more-terrifying-than-any-horror-movie.html Rodney Alcala]]. Fortunately she wasn't a victim and the story was later RippedFromTheHeadlines into the episode "Darkroom", with Eva La Rue's sister Nikka in a cameo (also not as a victim). |
11 | * PlayingTheirOwnTwin: |
12 | ** Creator/GrantGustin plays twins in "Terminal Velocity." |
13 | ** Kicked up a notch by Creator/LeslieBibb playing a set of SameSexTriplets in "Triple Threat." |
14 | * PlayingAgainstType: One episode had Creator/BenBrowder play an unhinged wannabe firefighter-turned arsonist. |
15 | * RealSongThemeTune: [[Music/WhosNext "Won't Get Fooled Again"]] by Music/TheWho, beginning right at the '''''[[RunningGag YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!]]''''' |
16 | ** Played as the grand finale of The Who's 2010 Super Bowl halftime show in Miami along with [[Series/{{CSINY}} "Baba O'Riley"]] and [[Series/{{CSI}} "Who Are You?"]] |
17 | * RealLifeRelative: Eva La Rue's sister Nikka plays a reporter in "Darkroom". |
18 | * RealitySubtext: Upon being served papers in New York City in the ''Series/{{CSINY}}'' crossover episode "Manhattan Manhunt," Horatio says, "I have a number of memories up here and not all are good. So I apologize." This is a reference to David Caruso's time in ''Series/NYPDBlue'', in which he had a very public spat with series creator Creator/StevenBochco and left after the fourth episode of season 2 on acrimonious terms. |
19 | * WestCoastTeam: Inverted (along w/ ''CSI: NY'' of course) by spinning off to the east from Vegas. |
20 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: |
21 | ** Creator/DonJohnson and Creator/JimmySmits were considered for Horatio Crane. Interestingly, Smits' romantic partner Wanda De Jesus would recur in the show's first season as Adelle Sevilla. |
22 | ** Had the show been renewed for season 11, then Natalia would've likely either been PutOnABus or had a recurring role as her actress Eva [=LaRue=] announced that she would depart after the tenth season. |
