(Spoilers after the jump!)<\/p>\n<p>\n<!--more-->As season 13 came to a close, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/episodes\/csi\/season13\/skin_in_the_game.shtml\">&#8220;Skin in the Game&#8221;<\/a> ended with Morgan Brody (<b>Elisabeth Harnois<\/b>) and Ellie Brass (<b>Teal Redmann<\/b>) in danger after they were kidnapped by a serial killer. The premiere picks up as the team searches for them before they become the killer&#8217;s latest victims. &#8220;It becomes a story of two fathers and two daughters \u2014 Brass [<b>Paul Guilfoyle<\/b>] and his daughter, who is in jeopardy, and Ecklie [<b>Marc Vann<\/b>] and his daughter, who is in jeopardy,&#8221; McGill told <a href=\"http:\/\/xfinity.comcast.net\/blogs\/tv\/2013\/09\/24\/csi-boss-says-somebody-unexpected-is-going-to-die-in-season-14-premiere\/\">XFinity TV<\/a>. &#8220;The whole team has to pull together. It&#8217;s some pretty explosive stuff.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nAs CSI Files previously <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/2013\/09\/mcgill-it-will-be-a-shock-to-the-audience\/\">reported<\/a>, someone will die in the premiere. Like last season&#8217;s premiere, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/episodes\/csi\/season13\/karma_to_burn.shtml\">&#8220;Karma to Burn&#8221;<\/a>, the search for Morgan and Ellie proves that the families of the CSI&#8217;s aren&#8217;t safe from danger. &#8220;One of the great themes of <i>CSI<\/i>, especially from the beginning, is that the workplace is family,&#8221; McGill said. &#8220;The CSIs really are a family, especially since <b>Ted Danson<\/b> (DB Russell) joined the cast. He brought this whole stable, family man vibe to the team. It just seemed a natural extension that we would exploit that side of things, where people who devote their whole lives to crime solving and their families often pay a price.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe 300th episode of <I>CSI<\/i> will air on October 23, featuring the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/2013\/08\/helgenberger-returns-to-csi-for-episode-300\/\">return<\/a> of <b>Marg Helgenberger<\/b> (Catherine Willows) and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/2013\/09\/report-csi-season-14-fall-preview\/\">taking a look<\/a> at the characters&#8217; past. &#8220;Episode 300 will be a fun journey back to the beginning of the show,&#8221; McGill revealed. &#8220;The theme for the season is back to the beginning, so in many of the episodes, we are going back to the roots of <i>CSI<\/i> \u2014 harkening back to the way the show was in those first seasons.&#8221;<br \/>\n<P><br \/>\nBe sure to read the full interview on <a href=\"http:\/\/xfinity.comcast.net\/blogs\/tv\/2013\/09\/24\/csi-boss-says-somebody-unexpected-is-going-to-die-in-season-14-premiere\/\">XFinity TV<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Executive Producer Don McGill offers some details about tonight&#8217;s CSI: Crime Scene Investigation premiere, &#8220;The&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2906],"tags":[3045],"class_list":["post-47681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-csi-lv","tag-mcgill"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"Rachel","author_link":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/author\/rachel\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/categories\/csi-lv\/\" rel=\"category tag\">CSI<\/a>","tag_info":"CSI","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47681","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=47681"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47681\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":47690,"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47681\/revisions\/47690"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=47681"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=47681"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.csifiles.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=47681"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
