Line #7 Trivia/CSIMiami


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.
