Vegas is the fourth child in the CSI family and has been described as a “sequel epilogue,” consisting of 10-episodes with the possibility of additional seasons. It will chart the huge advances made in criminal forensics, as well as the revelation of internal evidence tampering threats.

Original cast member William Petersen returns as Gil Grissom, the forensic entomologist of seasons 1 to 9, alongside Jorja Fox, who plays former head of the Las Vegas Crime Lab Sara Sidle. Wallace Langham, meanwhile, reprises the role of David Hodges – the trace technician with a superhuman sniffer.

Plenty has changed during CSI’s five-year hiatus, though, and the department has a “new, dynamic, intriguing force of criminalists.” These include Maxine Roby (Paula Newsome, HBO’s Barry), recently appointed head of the crime lab, Level II CSI Allie Rajan (Mandeep Dhillon, After Life).

You can enjoy this highly-anticipated addition to the CSI universe now. Just follow our guide below as we detail how to watch CSI: Vegas online today, and from anywhere in the world.

How to watch CSI: Vegas online in Canada

In 2016 it was the most watched TV franchise in the world, and Canadian fans can return to the crime lab on October 6 when CSI: Vegas airs. It will be broadcast on Global TV in line with the US release, on Wednesdays at 10pm ET / PT, with new episodes available weekly.

Unfortunately, you need to have a cable package to watch CSI: Vegas. You can watch episodes live or on-demand for free though, through Global's online streaming service. But to see everything that’s available you’ll need to enter your TV provider details. Full episodes from the channel are also available on Roku streaming devices for free the first seven days after being broadcast.

If you're currently travelling outside of Canada, tune in just like you would at home by using a VPN to magically reappear back home and gain access to all the content you'd normally stream.

Can I watch CSI: Vegas online in Australia?

Sadly, there’s no release date Down Under for CSI: Vegas. In the past the franchise was broadcast on the Nine Network, so we reckon this will be the first place it shows up when new episodes eventually reach Australia.

Should you want to be reunited with your favorite characters before then, you can find an assortment of CSI on Binge: seasons 5 to 15 of the original CSI, a mixture of CSI: Miami, and all bar one season of CSI: New York.

Travelling outside of Australia? Download a VPN like Express VPN to connect to your favorite streaming services wherever you are.
