The original CSI was great. The first few seasons are all about how the evidence is more important than whatever easy story the cops want to make up, and how society is more complicated than just good guys vs bad guys, and the system isn't always just. It drew a hard distinction between the scientific investigators and the actual cops. Later they turned into just another stupid cop show.
You mean the TONS of debunked pseudoscience that has led to thousands of innocent people being convicted because juries believe what they see on TV and prosecutors know how to exploit that?
Is THAT the "important evidence" you're referring to?
You are correct and I wasn't thinking about it from that angle, just about how they didn't glorify the police.
