The set also contains three featurettes on the creation of an episode, with a total running time of approximately 45 minutes. The three featurettes are: “Creating Feature Television: The Concept, Script and Pre-Production of CSI:Miami,” “Producing Feature Television: The Production of CSI:Miami,” and “Finishing Feature Television: The Post-Production of CSI:Miami.”
According to Sitcoms Online, this is a nicely put together set and the special features add a lot to ones knowledge of the show.
Movie Web recommends the set for fans of the series, while providing humorous commentary on David Caruso, “Not to join the flock of Hollywood gurus that poke fun at has-beens like a broken record, but every episode of Miami makes it clear why Caruso was out of the game for so long. The tough-talking, ginger-headed TV veteran is hardly believable as an authority figure, and watching his motionless face try to exhibit happiness and sadness is a riot.”
IF Magazine praises the production and acting, but says, “Throw out David Caruso and this show would be a hell of a lot better. Since that’s not going to happen, it’s still half decent.”
DVD Talk recommends the set, saying, “The DVDs bring the show home, again, in top-notch quality, and throw in some interesting extras for the show’s fans.”
CSI:Miami – The Complete Fourth Season is available on Amazon.
