CSI: Cyber - Season 1

Wish they made more seasons

I'm a die hard CSI fan, so a new CSI series was a natural for me. Well written, great ensemble acting, slickly produced like the other CSI shows--this one instead of centering on a single city is based in Washington DC, home of the FBI (Cyber Crime is federal/FBI domain since by definition it crosses state boundaries), but explores cyber crimes all over the US and the world. This member of the franchise explores cyber crime both for its entertainment value and for its educational value to the public, and conceives of the fight of good vs evil in this electronic realm as the war of the White Hat hackers (hackers who turn their skills toward fighting cyber crime) against the Black Hat hackers (hackers who engage in cyber crime). Computer technology is the wave of the future already among us and criminals are as tuned in to exploiting it as any other possible venue, but this realm, to paraphrase the lead character, begins in the mind, is executed in the Net, and realized in the real world. It points out the frightening vulnerability to hackers and spoilers of our techno devices--the more dependent one is on computer technology, the more devices one relies on, the more open one is to attack by cyber criminals. The stories found in the news are anticipated and chronicled in this show: electronic identity theft via social media, computer hacking into pcs and game computers, taking over people's cell phones.... It's fascinating and informative to watch, and scary to think about. Another nifty spin on CSI.

enjoyed the episodes and am looking forward to the next season. sent the dvd's to my son after watching them and told him to enjoy the stories but to pay attention to the technical explanations to actually learn what all the modern tech is about and how easily it can be compromised and the negative things that can happen when it is. kids have access to all these things but nobody teaches them how potentially dangerous the tech can be if you don't truly understand how it can affect your life. most people really have no idea. congrats to the show producers for making this series both entertaining as well as educational.

love the idea of cyber crimes

I bought this because of Patricia but is really a great cast overall. I realize on my second time that it is a bit fast paced and complicated me being not a cyber kind of guy. Mediium is one of my favorite shows ever being a great family show as well as supense and supernatural all rolled into one. If not for Patricia I would not have bought it. Still, it is a pretty good show overall.

ENJOYABLE SERIES! SOMETIMES THE PRIVATE LIFES OF CHARACTERS DRAG STORY DOWN, THEBASIC STORIES ARE GOOD.

This was s series that I loved & never missed when it was on television. It was a shame that it got cancelled. With any luck, they might decide to bring it back in syndication.

A lady friend of mine said that she was all smiles when she received it in the mail as a christmas present then she binged watched the entire season. So it was big hit for her.

J'aime beaucoup la série mais je suis très déçue de ne pas avoir le sous titrage en Français.

Great thanks

Ich habe mir die Folgen auch schon im Fernsehen gesehen und fand die Themen aktuell den je. Die Themen sind nicht den Haaren herbeigezogen. Ich habe mich nach den Folgen schlau gemacht und es ist wirklich was wahres dran. Leider keine weitere Folgen mehr :(.Wir möchten heutzutage alles vernetzt zu haben sowohl für zu Hause als auch unterwegs. Firmen bitten Geräte für Steuerungen an ohne jeglichen Angaben ob die Daten verschlüsselt werden, wo die Daten landen oder wie gut meine Daten von der Firma geschützt werden.Diese Folgen sollen dies zeigen insbesonders im Umgang mit sozialen Medien und die Nutzung von öffentlichen Wlans.Auf keinen Fall sollen die Folgen Ängste schnüren nur sensibilisieren .Die erste Staffel fand ich persönlich besser als die zweite.

It is much more than I expected; excellent cast of believable actors in fresh interesting plotsand I learned a lot about cyber crimeDavid G.

Awesome
