C.S.I -vs- Faking It

CSI tells the story of the much overlooked heroes, the forensic investigators. These are the men and women who work day and night to untangle the evidence behind the yellow police tape, piecing together seemingly insignificant puzzle pieces to catch the bad guys and serve those who are most important and sometimes ignored – the victims.

Faking It part reality television, part documentary. Follows a person over a four-week period to see if chosen mentors can pass off the person as a member of their own profession in just four weeks.

Gil Grissom leads the investigators working the graveyard shift for the Criminalistics Bureau in Las Vegas. His crime lab team includes Catherine Willows, a street-smart forensics expert who balances her love for the job with her devotion as a single parent to her young daughter; Warrick Brown, a sharp analyst with a passion for his job, yet with an addiction to gambling he knows he has to overcome; Nick Stokes, who’s got the charm and good-looks, and craves to be the best at his job; Sara Sidle, the newest member of the team, a trusted former co-worker of Gris

Faking It has gone through many different professions in it’s time and has represented a wide range of the public from an ex-marine becoming drag queen to a web designer becoming a surfer and a stripper becoming a show jumper to a 999 call operator becoming a T.V. director.
