‘CSI’ Plans Season-Long Storyline

The CSI: Crime Scene Investigation crew is busy planning out the show’s fifteenth season, including an ongoing storyline. You can find more information after the jump, along with several tweets from the writers. (Contains minor spoilers!)

First, here’s a question from TV Line:

Question: Anything you can spill on the new season of CSI? —Missi

And here are several posts from the CSI writers’ room Twitter account, including a reference to the above spoiler:

Also. Overheard in the writers' room last week: "So, uhm, can we 'fix it' this season?" Promise I'm not lying. Can't tell you the reply tho.
