CSI: Crime Scene Investigation won the People's Choice Award for Favorite Dramatic Television Series last night, beating E.R. and Law and Order: Special Victims Unit.

Marg Helgenberger (Catherine Willows) accepted the award on behalf of the cast and crew, many of whom were in attendance, including executive producer Jerry Bruckheimer.

Among those who took to the stage with Helgenberger were executive producer Anthony Zuiker and actors George Eads (Nick Stokes), Paul Guilfoyle (Jim Brass) and Eric Szmanda (Greg Sanders).

"It's a great honor to be recognized as the people's choice," Helgenberger said for the cast and crew in her acceptance speech.

Jorja Fox (Sara Sidle) and Gary Dourdan (Warrick Brown) were also onstage with the group, and together presented the Favorite New Dramatic Series award to CBS's Joan of Arcadia.

Bruckheimer took home the Favorite Film Award as well for Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.

Yahoo! has photos of the 30th People's Choice Awards, including a shot of the cast and a photo of Helgenberger and the CSI group accepting their award.
