CSI: NY Soon To Be Found In Online World Second Life

Look for an upcoming episode of CSI: New York to be played out in the popular online world Second Life. CSI creator Anthony Zuiker announced yesterday at the Virtual Worlds Conference and Expo that the two-part episode airing October 24 and February 6 will have Mac, played by Gary Sinise, pursue a killer's avatar through Second Life.

The hit TV show also plans to develop an online virtual CSI: NY within Second Life where viewers will be able to find games for CSI beginners and content for more advanced viewers such as "Murder By Zuiker", a blog game where you try to solve a crime by analyzing evidence found within Second Life. Zuiker evaluates the entries himself.

The Second Life integration is part of an acknowledgment on Zuiker's part that the future of television will be played out largely online.
