The Story
CSI: NY, a crime drama inspired by the drama series, CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, is about forensic investigators who use high-tech science to follow the evidence and solve crimes in the Big Apple. Det. Mac Taylor, a dedicated and driven crime-scene investigator who believes that everything is connected and everyone has a story, is a decorated Marine who served in Desert Storm and dabbled in war photography. The job is his life; he focuses on cases until they are solved. He and his partner, Stella Bonasera, a well-traveled, well-educated detective, an orphan who flourished in spite of the system, share a passion for the job.

Stella is a jack-of-all-trades and has an unmatched desire to find answers for the victims of violent crimes, due in part to questions about her past. They lead a team of experts through the gritty and kinetic city that never sleeps. The team includes Danny Messer, an investigator with an unflappable spirit and a troubled family history, which he uses on the job as he blends his own set of hybrid ethics. Messer was personally selected to join the team by Mac, and he attempts daily to live up to that honor and responsibility. Sheldon Hawkes is the crime lab's former coroner, a brilliant Ph.D. who transitioned to the field team. Joining them is Don Flack, an edgy, hardcore homicide detective with a quick wit, impressive forensic insight and a long family history in law enforcement.

Rounding out the team is Lindsay Monroe, a young, athletic CSI with a Midwestern work ethic who is willing to roll up her sleeves to tackle any job and rarely hints at the dark and devastating secret that originally motivated her to dedicate her life to being an investigator. The New York CSIs may have a different process from those in Las Vegas or Miami, but they are guided by the same steadfast determination. These skilled investigators follow the evidence as they piece together clues and eliminate doubt, to ultimately crack their cases.

Gary Sinise	Mac
Melina Kanakaredes	Det. Stella Bonasera

In "Hex and the City," a curse from a tarot-reading gypsy gives bad luck to those Homer loves, resulting in bizarre physical transformations for his family.

2. The Parent Rap

Jane Kaczmarek lends her voice to a role with similarities to her Lois character from "Malcolm in the Middle" in the 13th-season opener.
It begins with Bart and Milhouse accidentally stealing a police car. Bart expects to face an easy judge, but instead meets Judge Constance Harm (Kaczmarek,) a stern, no-nonsense arbiter. Noting Homer's contribution to the incident and sensing that Bart is "crying out for adult supervision," Harm orders the young troublemaker to be tethered to his father. The plan does bring the pair closer to each other, but their new link interferes with the relationship between Homer and Marge — who literally cuts the cord, landing her in Harm's way, too.

He eventually meets Gloria, who agrees to a date but ultimately finds the tycoon too old. Burns allays her fears by drafting Homer to testify to his youthful rowdiness.

Enter podium-placed advertising and in-sermon commercials; and exit an outraged Lisa.

There, he makes his proposition: one million bucks to spend a weekend alone with Marge. And Artie promises "no funny stuff."

11. The Bart Wants What It Wants

Reese Witherspoon and Wolfgang Puck are guest voices as Bart and Milhouse fight over a girl. The object of their affection — and altercation — is Greta Wolfcastle (Witherspoon,) the daughter of action-film star Rainier Wolfcastle (Puck.) After Bart and his slingshot rescue her backpack from bullies, Greta is immediately smitten. But her crush is unrequited, and the oblivious Bart blows off a date with her in order to harass Principal Skinner at his stand-up comedy debut. Clued to Greta's feelings, Bart breaks off the relationship — until Milhouse steps in. It's only then, in the name of love, that Bart asks his parents' help to win Greta back by following her to her dad's film set... in Toronto.

12. The Lastest Gun in the West

Dennis Weaver, whose nearly 50-year career on TV includes "Gunsmoke," "McCloud" and "Gentle Ben," provides the voice of Buck McCoy, an old cowboy star who becomes Bart's new hero. They first meet after a stray dog chases Bart onto the grounds of Buck's mansion. Bart becomes pals with the horse-opera great, who later visits the Simpsons and brings along video highlights of his career. With Bart's help, it's not long before a Western craze sweeps Springfield Elementary, and he and Lisa land Buck a guest spot on Krusty the Clown's TV show.

NEW SHOWS HAVE BEEN ADDED-OUR WORK HAVE JUST INCREASED

I'm on it

bala

1. Treehouse of Horror XIII

The series begins its 14th season — tying it with "Ozzie and Harriet" as TV's longest-running comedy — with its annual Halloween trilogy. In the first story, a magical new hammock enables Homer to "Send In the Clones," a small army of duplicates that he happily dispatches to do chores — until one kills Flanders. Next is "The Fright to Creep and Scare Harms," in which Springfield is invaded by a posse of cowboy zombies led by Billy the Kid, prompting Homer to go back in time to save the day. In the finale, the family ships out for "The Island of Dr. Hibbert," where they become guinea pigs in experiments to cross humans with animals.

2. How I Spent My Strummer Vacation

Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Tom Petty, Elvis Costello, Lenny Kravitz and Brian Setzer teach Homer a thing or two about music when he attends a rock-and-roll fantasy camp.
As a gift from his family, Homer joins Apu, Barney, Otto and Chief Wiggum for a week of training in the complete rock-star lifestyle, "without the lawsuits and the STDs," says Mr. Jagger, who leads a session on "Inducing Crowd Frenzy." There are also workshops on slinging guitars; plowing through groupies and paparazzi; and songwriting, where Homer gets on Tom Petty's nerves. But one rockin' week is not enough for Homer, who wangles an invitation to join his instructors for a benefit concert.

3. Bart vs. Lisa vs. 3rd Grade

Lisa's high score on an achievement test gets her promoted to the third grade, the same class as Bart when he's demoted for his low score.

4. Large Marge

Marge goes to a clinic for liposuction and comes out with breast implants.

5. Helter Shelter

The Simpsons participate in a reality show called "1895 Challenge," in which they live without modern conveniences. When ratings start to sink, the producers add a celebrity — David L. Lander from "Laverne & Shirley."

6. The Great Louse Detective

Kelsey Grammer returns as venerable criminal Sideshow Bob, whose deep-rooted hatred for Bart is set aside as he tries to find out who's trying to kill Homer. Apparently someone is out to get Homer J., who barely escapes after a shadowy figure locks him in a spa steam room. Seeing the need for someone who understands a murderous mind, Chief Wiggum calls on the incarcerated Bob, who moves in with the Simpsons to keep close tabs on the intended target. When Bob asks why someone might want to do Homer harm, he's taken aback by Homer's response: "I'm a people person... who drinks."

7. Special Edna

Bart nominates Mrs. Krabappel for Teacher of the Year, netting the family a trip to the awards show in Orlando, where Little Richard is to present the prize.

9. Strong Arms o the Ma

After a mugging, Marge becomes agoraphobic, until she starts weight training, which turns her into a buff bully who enters a bodybuilding contest.

10. Pray Anything

Coincidences lead Homer to believe he's got a direct prayer line to God, which doesn't stop him from suing when he falls at church. Lisa Leslie has a cameo.

11. Barting Over

Bart sues for divorce from his parents in the series' 300th episode. The catalyst for the courtroom confrontation is a videotape that Bart finds in the garage, showing him as a baby in a TV commercial for a product that prevents bad breath in infants. What's even more jarring, the fourth grader formerly known as "Baby Stink Breath" learns that Homer has spent all the residuals earned from the spot. Furious, Bart hires an attorney, and a judge (Jane Kaczmarek) grants him his emancipation, as well as financial support from Homer. That allows Bart to move into his own loft, where his neighbors include music group Blink 182 and skateboarder Tony Hawk.

12. I'm Spelling As Fast As I Can

Spelling champ Lisa makes the Spellympics, where host George Plimpton proposes a deal. Homer joins a traveling fan club for a new Krusty food product.

13. A Star is Born Again

Marisa Tomei plays a movie star who falls for Flanders enough to move to Springfield when he disdains going Hollywood.

14. Mr. Spritz Goes to Washington

Hoping to re-route air traffic over their house, the Simpsons ask Krusty to run for Congress, where the successful clown finds more of his kind.

15. C.E.D'oh

Homer's stint in a success workshop gives him new initiative, but Mr. Burns' lack of appreciation prompts Homer to plot revenge, which results in a takeover of the power plant.

16. Scuse Me While Miss the Sky

It's a case of Idle, not "Idol," mania. Eric Idle plays pompous documentarian Declan Desmond, who's filming "A Day in the Life of Springfield Elementary." Lisa may be its best pupil, but Declan declares that her diverse interests show a lack of focus and make her a "buffet-style intellectual." That criticism prompts Lisa to embrace astronomy as a career path. But when Springfield's night lights prevent her from gazing at the sky, Lisa successfully lobbies to have them dimmed. However, a resulting crime wave spawns a public backlash that Mayor Quimby quells by restoring even brighter illumination — making a decent night's sleep a dim memory for the increasingly neurotic townspeople.

17.  Gays of the Condo

A rift with Marge over his drinking sends Homer packing and into a condo which he shares with two gay men.

18. Dude, Where's my Ranch?

After David Byrne turns Homer's anti-Flanders song into a monster hit, the family vacations at a dude ranch, where Lisa falls in love with a wrangler (Jonathan Taylor Thomas,) and Homer and Bart rescue Native Americans from beavers.

After the family cat saves his life, Homer disdains the dog, until the canine is picked to be the mascot for Duff beer.

20. Brake My Wife, Please

Marge is the family chauffeur after Homer's latest driving mishap costs him his license.

After Bart and Milhouse damage Flanders' house, Bart must be supervised, and joins the ''Pre-Teen Braves''. However, rivalry ensues when Milhouse joins an opposing group, ''The Cavalry Kids''.

New York City homicide detective John Amsterdam is cursed with immortality because he stopped the murder of a Native American girl in 1642 by stepping in front of a sword. Due to this act of kindness, the girl rescued Amsterdam from the stab wound by making him immortal, but warns that it is a curse that will only be lifted when John meets his true love.

Now, Amsterdam is a homicide detective in the Big Apple where he shares his secret with Omar, a blues club owner with a few secrets of his own. John is partnered up with Eva Marquez and gets into a chase with a suspect. When he suffers what appears to be a heart attack and is revived by ER doctor Sara Dillane, he realizes that mortality may be closer then he thought.
