I love both the original/Vegas and Miami. I like Caruso's whole attitude and love the sublety of his face changes (and not meeting people's eyes when he's upset, etc.) I loved Melina Kanakaredes as "Syd" in the show "Providence" so I have trouble seeing her in NY without expecting the same of her and it's just not that "type" of show. But I think my favorite character of all the shows is Calleigh in CSI/Miami. I love her "cheerful" attitude and down to earth good sense. She doesn't take people's comments the wrong way, reponds to people rather than just knee-jerk reacting, and always follows up on things of interest to her; is willing to confront people if necessary and do all the hard work of relationships.
