Miami!
CSI Miami is a perfectly created illusion. And with that we neither mean the acting nor the storylines. I daresay, CSI Miami is the only show that could be produced during the WGA strike - since they don't need writers for the cr** they show us week after week.
After watching a handful of painfully bad episodes we would like to summarize what we have learned in the last few days:
1) Everybody in Miami is under thirty. There are no old folks in Miami.
2) Everybody is in a perfect shape. There are no fat/large people in Miami
3) Everybody is dirty, filthy, rich. There are no poor people, no barrios in Miami
4) Everybody is attractive. No uglies or imperfect people in Miami.
5) Everybody is expertly coiffed and dressed in the latest fashion. Nobody suffers from bad hair days or wears K-Mart socks.
6) Everybody is straight. No gays, lesbians or cross-dressers.
7) Everybody accepts police harassment. They don't care about being questioned without an attorney present or being held without a probable cause. Police brutality is not frowned upon it is deemed necessary.
In summary, Miami seems like a cool place to live. And if you don't fall into one of the categories mentioned above you can move to Miami and live a safe and happy live. Because nobody would bother to murder/kidnap/rob/blackmail you. You are simply not interesting enough.
Welcome to the paradise!

It's a TV show,,,,about as believable as Medium or Jericho or Battlestar Galactic.
It is possible for the ages to work. It happens all the time in real life, in the story he was undercover at the time.
As far as your points, it only portrays the best side of town and the best looking people. It's a TV show, not real life.

Is it just me or has this show gotten much worse than usual? I stopped watching years ago because of the overacting of Caruso, the ridiculous knowledge Caine has about everything ("That plant only grows on the North side of the bay, 3.6 miles outside of town"), the fact that their Miami is populated 100% by young, beautiful people with nary a retiree or older person to be found, etc. I tuned in for this week's episodes and found Caine going to Brazil to face "justice," then shooting dead half a dozen people (at least one a clear murder) in 2 minutes in order to catch his flight back to the main episode. We're supposed to believe that there's no police force in Brazil? This really sucks.
