While TV network execs may celebrate the high ratings of shows such CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, real-life crime investigators are not as thrilled about the unrealistic expectations caused by the show's high-tech wizardry and on-the-spot crime solving. According to anthropology professor and author Elliott Leyton, the "CSI effect" is skewing the public's perception of forensic science and their view of police work.
In this 10 minute compilation, you'll see Canada AM host Beverly Thomson go to CSI school.
