Catherine comforts Warrick when he is accused of murdering a famous Vegas gangster and even he is uncertain of his guilt or innocence.

Anthony's last name is pronounced "Zy-kur". (edit) Anthony attended Chapparal High School in Las Vegas, Nevada. (edit) Anthony E. Zuiker was the only person allowed to film at New York City's Ground Zero. (edit) He went to the University of Nevada Las Vegas and received a Bachelor of Arts in English (edit)

Anthony Zuiker: (On CSI) We have stiff competition going up against "Law & Order". And there were a lot more science-oriented shows [when New York debuted]. When Miami first spun off, there was "CSI", "Crossing Jordan" and maybe "John Doe"--we still had sort of a monopoly on the [forensic science genre]. Now I think there's probably fifteen or twenty shows on the air so it's been difficult to establish a vision for the show, and its own identity.
(edit) Anthony Zuiker: (On showrunners Carol Mendelsohn and Ann Donahue ) When I came to Hollywood, I was asked to interview showrunners because I obviously wasn't going to run the show. So I wanted two showrunners, I liked Carol--she was from Chicago, too--and Carol hired Ann Donahue and most of the writers. So you had the new kid and two seasoned veterans, with a very talented cast and staff. I finally understand how difficult [running the show] must have been for them. It's ironic that we're all split up now. We call each other on the phone every once in a while. It's sad--we all miss being with each other. We've made each other's career. (edit) Anthony Zuiker: (On CSI and its spinoffs CSI:Miami and CSI: New York) The biggest challenge [of being a showrunner] was I didn't have any time to do what I did, which was create and write, it's a lot of managing--a lot of post time, and problems on the set, and hirings and firings, and trying to bring in new people where we were deficient in some key areas, like production. And I found myself not being in [the writers'] room, not doing as much writing. Then I made the mistake to take on too much, writing every script, which didn't help things either. I much like being a leader more than a boss. There's a good cop and a bad cop, and I like to think of myself as the good cop. So it's not only managing people in terms of running the show, but it's also to keep the vision in your head when everybody is telling you what the vision of the show should be. (edit) Anthony Zuiker: (On CSI vs. Law & Order) There's no such thing as competition, just good company. There's room for two successful shows in the same time period. (edit) Anthony Zuiker: (About CSI New York) We want to keep moving in a direction that will take us away from the first two CSI shows. It's up to the writers and actors to determine where these characters go in the next few months. We're still feeling it out, but it's good to have the CSI name behind you going in. It's a nice starting point." (edit)
