CBS' official poster for season 15

"CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" is an American crime drama television series which is also more commonly referred to as just "CSI" or "CSI: Las Vegas." It first premiered on the CBS in 2000 and was created by Anthony E. Zuiker and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer. The series was renewed for a fifteenth season by CBS on Mar. 13 earlier this year and is scheduled to premiere today on CBS.

It was previously reported that Julie Finlay will be faced with a bomb threat in her car right off episode one which throws DB Russell and the entire crime lab team in a fit of panic.

The show's official first episode synopsis reads, "Finlay must deal with a bomb planted in her car, while Russell gets a call from someone claiming to be the Gig Harbor killer."

While the CSI series had multiple criminals which it put behind bars or killed throughout its previous season, Season 15 could be different with a series-long killer. The CSI Writers Room had already alluded to the possibility in July and they described Season 15 of CSI: Las Vegas to be "super dark and twisted."

"Hey, did you guys want to do a season-long killer?" the Writers Room asked earlier this summer.

As for the identity of the season-long killer, it could possibly be Jared Briscoe. Briscoe was personally arrested by Russell and his involvement with a series of crimes will surely baffle the crime lab boss. He will be pondering on whether he had caught a cop-cat or a twin.

Although the writers have prepared a dark and twisted season, they assured fans that it will still be a "fun" and "not painful" season.

The premiere will be on the CBS channel at 10 p.m. EST, and can also be watched online through live stream by clicking here.
