The various "CSI" shows

Do you watch any or all of the "CSI" shows? If so, which one(s) and what do you like about it? If they do another CSI show, what city should it be set in?
I watch an occasional ep of the original (Vegas) CSI, but don't watching it on a regular basics because:
1.) all the cases seem to involve some sort of bizarre sexual angle
2.) virtually every other ep seems to have a child under the age of 18 as the killer, which I find to be HIGHLY unrealistic.
3.) Shipper though I generally am, the May-December, boss-employee nature of the Grissom/Sara ship kinda grosses me out.
I do not watch the Miami version because I can't stand David Caruso.
I watch the New York version on a regular basis. It's one of my two "must see" TV shows (the other is "NCIS). I like it because:
1.) It has Gary Sinise in it and I've *always* liked him.
2.) The crimes on this version seem a lot more realistic; there's usually a drug or money angle to the murders and children are rarely involved in the crimes except as victims (and kids are MUCH more likely to be the victims, rather than the perpetrators, of crimes).
3.) There are two possble shipper pairings, both of which I can root for. There's the "mature" ship of Mac/Stella and the funny, flirty ship of Danny/Lindsey.
If they ever do another CSI show, I'd like to see it set somewhere in Texas. We have three of the ten largest cities in the country here, but rarely are TV shows set in this state. However, I'd be happy with *any* location that is different than the typical East Coast/West Coast/Chicago/Las Vegas locales which is were about 98 percent of all TV shows are set. Detroit or Memphis might be interesting.
