Arquette is a cool presence onscreen and brings understated conviction to a character whose powers of observation border on superhuman.
CSI: Cyber is perfectly serviceable television, with nothing distracting--David Caruso dramatically interrupting his own cheesy ripostes to don his sunglasses, say--to take you out of the story, but not a whole lot to keep you breathless for another.

This show is the best. Its keeps older people advised to what criminals can do to the world. Most of the complaints seem to be from very uneducated. Even speaking of having female boss and over weight hacker. And you use let these kind of people help make decisions in Hollywood. Our favorites are criminal minds, csi cyber and all other dramas. Just tell the others to change the channel and watch what they
want to watch and keep your fingers off ours. There are more than kids out there that watch TV.
The young ones want to just type something to you because someone else did. Older people don't usually respond to this kind of web sites for their opinion to be put out there.

SEASON 1
On CSI: Cyber, Ryan and her team act very swiftly, oftentimes preposterously so. Computer graphics whiz and buzz. And then, just like that, another suspect is chased down and vetted by Ryan, who seemingly needs nothing more than a burp or a twitch to determine who the bad guys are and who they are not.
Fans of “CSI” shows will likely warm up to this latest franchise extension and viewers of more character-driven, less preposterous drama will ignore it like they have past “CSI” shows.
It’s no surprise that the series doesn’t really give Arquette any opportunity to demonstrate the acting chops that garnered her an Academy Award or the warmth and likability she radiated for seven seasons on Medium. Van Der Beek and MacNichol also are capable of much more than simply spouting exposition.
I hope [Arquette’s] getting paid a heckuva lot for striding through this new hour of televisual malware.
This train wreck of a show often plays like a parody of bad crime drama that one would see within a Seth Rogen comedy, for example.
After watching years of various CSI interactions CSI: Cyber seemed to be the logical next step for the franchise. Within the format however, it faced obvious limitations. I think it's because the CSI standard treatment has run its course. Although the plots were generally workable, the writing didn't give the actors much to work with. Overall, it was still watchable and at times enjoyable, but it never reached the right balance it needed to be good.

SEASON 1
How can a crime be committed in another state & CSI Cyber team arrives on the seen at the same time as the local authorities and first responders? Then they discover criminal activity in another state, still have time to get to the home base in DC and they arrive in the next state to make the arrest again before local authorities... Doesn't this well funded agency have lab techs? Why are they always doing their own lab work including fingerprinting. How do all their arch enemies live in DC. Why is it suppose to be so amazing when The CSI leads asks a question, the person wipes both hands across their face and the camera zooms in as if she is seeing some amazing clue that no one else can see. Why does their equipment get hacked or corrupted so easily? When do they sleep, because they work night and day? Why is it that every time one of them needs help from the team, they go off the grid but supposedly leave some minuscule clue that for some reason people that have only known them a short while are able to figure out. This could be a good show, just strip away some of the corny cyber explanations and definitions, more crime less soap opera and less personal attachments to the crimes especially the ones where one of them has a best friend or relative that is wrongly accused.

SEASON 1
Probably the runt of the litter. This program has little of the "charms" of a procedural and all of its faults. The dialogue is chock full of meaningless acronyms that are at times confounding. Patricia Arquette does her best to renounce her recent Oscar by seeming to be lost in the wrong "medium"--the acting is banal at best. Oh well, this might save us from CSI Podunk!

Not thrilled. I just haven't been able to get into it yet. I love Patricia Arquette, watched Medium all the time. The characters are evolving, the plots aren't for me yet.
