I've tried my best to enjoy this show. I keep watching it every time it's on despite the fact it leaves me unsatisfied every time.

It follows closely in the CSI tradition of push button awesomeness.
"Where's the murder weapon?"
"Here, let me push the only button on this remote control to bring a 42" flat screen display down from the ceiling that will display a live-action satellite image of the area where we think the crime was committed. Just a sec. We're feeding in the data for the crime scene reconstruction algorithm and... there it is! The knife is right there! Good work team!"

I know it's supposed to be entertainment, but for me, when the legal stuff is off it really bugs me. Plus, if you think CSI has messed up North American juries' perception of forensic evidence, have mercy on us all if this show catches on...
