During CSI: Miami's opening credits, several actors' names morph in and out of equations.
CSI: Miami ran for ten seasons between 2002 and 2012, and featured a cast of thirteen regulars. David Caruso, as Lieutenant Horatio Caine, was afforded the starring credit, while Emily Procter was credited second to him. Kim Delaney, the female lead in the episodes she appeared, was credited as and, while Rory Cochrane was afforded this credit following his departure, despite being previously credited as with. Also holding and positions were Adam Rodriguez, during seasons 9 and 10 (he was previously credited directly following Procter), and Eddie Cibrian during season 8. Sofia Milos (season 3), Khandi Alexander (seasons 1–6), Jonathan Togo (seasons 3–10), Rex Linn (seasons 5–10), Eva LaRue (seasons 5–10), Megalyn Echikunwoke (season 7), and Omar Benson Miller (seasons 8–10) were credited consistently in that order.
CSI: Miami hosted several crossover episodes during its ten seasons on air. Gary Sinise, as Detective Mac Taylor, and Melina Kanakaredes as his partner, Detective Stella Bonasera, were introduced during a 2004 episode of CSI: Miami, as were the rest of the CSI: NY cast. Sinise reprised his role during Miami's fourth season, while CSI: Crime Scene Investigation alumnus Laurence Fishburne appeared as his established character during part one of a three part CSI: Trilogy event. All of the actors listed below were credited as special guest stars.
In addition to appearing on CSI: Miami, several regular and recurring cast members have made appearances on both CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and CSI: NY. David Caruso, and Emily Procter, along with the rest of the original Miami cast (with the exception of Kim Delaney) were introduced during a 2002 episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation; Caruso later crossed over to CSI: NY.
Actors who would later join the main cast, as well as returning former cast members, were often credited as special guest stars. Rex Linn (seasons 1–4), Sofia Milos (seasons 1–2, 5–7), Eva LaRue (season 4), Rory Cochrane (season 6), Khandi Alexander (seasons 7–8), and Adam Rodriguez (season 8), were among the performers afforded this credit, along with major recurring player Taylor Cole (season 10), and high-caliber guest performers such as Malcolm McDowell (seasons 8 and 10). This is not an extensive list, and as such, single-episode special guest appearances are not listed.
CSI: Miami hosted an extensive recurring cast throughout its ten seasons, consisting of law enforcement officials, family members, litigators, and fugitives. Law & Order: Los Angeles alums Wanda de Jesus and Alana de la Garza, 24's Carlos Bernard, Boston Legal actor Christian Clemenson and Rizzoli & Isles' Ed Begley, Jr. are among the most notable of those listed below.
Laboratory Technician Sam Belmontes (Cristian de la Fuente, seasons 1–2, 10): Chemical Analysis lab tech.
Laboratory Technician Tyler Jenson (Brian Poth, seasons 1–3): Audio/visual and multimedia lab technician who was later replaced by Dan Cooper.
Laboratory Technician Cynthia Wells (Brooke Bloom, seasons 2–5, 8–10): Questioned Documents lab tech.
Laboratory Technician Carrie Delgado (Nicole DeHuff, season 2): Blood evidence technician. She was a fan of Quincy, M.E. as a child, influencing her to become a criminalist. She only appeared in season 2, as two years later, DeHuff died from pneumonia.
Laboratory Technician Joseph Kayle (Leslie Odom Jr., seasons 2–4): A lab tech who worked in fingerprints.
Laboratory Technician Maxine Valera (Boti Bliss, seasons 2–8): DNA analyst. She was temporarily suspended from her duties in season 3 for technical errors and was then reinstated by season 4. She has an unfortunate habit of taking shortcuts with evidence, which caused her suspension and also brought her under suspicion when the lab was investigated by the FBI (episode 4.25, "One of Our Own"). She goes on a date with Natalia Boa Vista's ex-husband, Nick Townsend, and thinks she is his killer after he turns up murdered, though this assumption is proved to be untrue. Jake Berkley (who investigated the case) kept insisting she and Natalia had killed him, despite the fact that Townsend was brutally beaten to death. She and Natalia were cleared, however, when it is revealed that Nick Townsend's death is related to the case of Lauren Sloan and her husband Jeff Murdock. Jeff killed Nick to get back his wife's earring (episode 5.12, "Internal Affairs"). Her final appearance was in "Delko for the Defense".
Laboratory Technician Aaron Peters (Armando Valdes-Kennedy, seasons 3–4): A trace evidence lab tech. He did not like Eric Delko in his lab while working his sister's case being in his lab. He filed a report, but later regretted it when the lab falls under federal investigation. Presumably, as a result of the intense pressure the FBI was giving the Crime Lab, Peters most likely quit his job or at his own request was transferred to work elsewhere.
Laboratory Technician Nicole Talcott (Kimiko Gelman, season 3): A lab tech from the night shift of the Miami Dade Crime Lab. She temporarily filled in for Valera after the latter was suspended for putting a rape victim's DNA and profile into the system.
Laboratory Technician Daniel "Dan" Cooper (Brendan Fehr, seasons 4–6): He believes a great deal of information can be discerned by what music a person has on his or her MP3 playlist (episode 5.17, "A Grizzly Murder"). He had a good relationship with the Crime Lab personnel and also the CSIs until the season 6 episode "Bang, Bang, Your Debt", when he is discovered to have stolen and used a credit card that belonged to the late Tim Speedle—to the outrage of Delko and Calleigh, who told him to turn
