The Thing About Heroes - S4-E10

Corrected entry: Stella realises the 333 stalker is Drew because the jigsaw puzzle piece she picked up from under his chair when she was looking for the missing piece from the puzzle with blue crosses was in fact from the puzzle with green crosses, which they had not yet received. Yet she goes back to the lab and places this piece in to the puzzle to complete it.

Correction: Stella went and got this puzzle piece after she found the first piece, from her car, and it was assembled (for them to realise it had a piece missing) but before they found the second puzzle. They then found the second puzzle, noting it also had a missing piece. However, Stella didn't figure out the missing piece they found at Drew's place came from the second puzzle until after Adam explained the x's thing, and she had another look at it, so she could then go place it in the right building, as they had assembled both puzzles together.

Not What It Looks Like - S3-E2

Factual error: Season 3, episode 49 (Not What It Looks Like). Breaking glass with sound is possible, but would not work as depicted in the episode. First, in order to break the glass, you have to force the glass to vibrate at its natural frequency - that is, the frequency at which it would vibrate if it were tapped. Each piece of glass has its own natural frequency, depending on a range of factors including size, chemical makeup, shape, hardness, and manufacturing methods. No single frequency would shatter all the glass in the store at the same time. Finally, in order to break the glass the piece has to be closed-ended. You can't shatter a plate of glass with sound (nowhere for the sound waves to resonate). Please see http://www.madsci.org/posts/archives/feb98/887203231.Ph.r.html.

Trivia: Carmine Giovinazzo is the first series regular to appear on all three "CSI" series. He made a guest appearance in the Vegas "CSI" third season episode "Revenge is Best Served Cold," his character was introduced in the Miami cross-over episode "MIA/NYC Nonstop," and is a series regular on NY. He has since been followed by Gary Sinise (Mac).

More trivia for CSI: NY

Chosen answer: Probably to broaden the scope of the show's plot and give the audience a chance to see the characters in a different setting, People act differently at home from the way they do at their workplace. By the ninth season, the characters would have become overly familiar and predictable. It gives the writers a chance to do something different with them.
