The parade is very popular due to its courageous takings and popular characters. However, despite CSIs popularity it has been heavily criticized for realism to actual law-breaking solving. CSI portrays an inaccurate, to say the least, image of how police solve crimes. To begin with, CSI has depicted galore(postnominal) manifestations to people who watch it. Two main things noticed in the sequel watched be the myth of crime scene investigating and desoxyribonucleic acid testing.The draw does a really good job hollywooding the house of forensic science. nonpareil clear myth of the show is its characters and how attractive they are. Forensic scientists are more likely to look like fat men with spectacles rather than sexy women who wear camisoles to a crime scene, as seen in the show. In addition, the show depicts solving a case as flourishing and not time consuming, when in reality the majority of these cases would obtain months or even years to solve. Moreover, when collecting evidence and DNA in the show, it shows DNA results returning in a matter or hours when it would normally take years.This false interpretation contributes to viewers manifestation of DNA testing in real cases thinking that its an easy process. The only reality of the show run aground was when one of the investigators collected a finger print, however, even that was glamorized because a print would never come out so clear, as it did in the show. Overall, the show itself is a good show, it is very entertaining, from its graphics to the acting, however, its realism is non-existent and it exemplifies the forensic field falsely.
