csi: crime scene investigation –season 8

The hit forensic crime drama returns for its eighth season on Five. The Las Vegas crime unit, under the leadership of Gil Grissom (William Petersen), continues to solve the darkest, weirdest and most complex crimes of Sin City’s underworld.

Last season was dominated by the hunt for the “miniature killer”, a serial murderer who left behind detailed models of the crime scenes. In the season finale, ‘Living Doll’, the killer was revealed to be a disturbed young woman named Natalie Davis. Natalie was placed in custody – but there was one more shock in store for Grissom.

Blaming him for the death of her foster father, Natalie targeted someone close to Grissom’s heart. She sent him another replica crime scene, depicting an overturned car in the desert. Pinned beneath the car was a tiny doll of Sara Sidle (Jorja Fox), Grissom’s colleague and lover. “I took away the only person she ever loved, so she’s going to do the same thing to me,” he told his shocked colleagues. Can the CSIs save Sara from her terrible fate in the Season 8 premiere?

Also coming up this season, Catherine faces the ghosts of her father’s past; Greg revels in the legends of Vegas history; Warrick goes head to head with the remnants of the old Vegas mob, in an episode directed by Oscar-winning director William Friedkin; and Grissom investigates the causes of Colony Collapse Disorder – a global bee epidemic.
