We already learned that Eddie Cibrian will be joining the cast of CSI: Miami, but surprisingly, he makes his first appearance on the show in the season premiere flashback sequence. And here’s also some cool info about when the flashbacks actually occur for Delko. Now I’m really excited about the season beginning!

Question: I am psyched about CSI: Miami’s flashback season opener! Anything else you can offer up? –Monica

Ausiello: We’ll catch our first glimpse of new castmember Eddie Cibrian in one of the episode’s flashback sequences. Apparently, his character crossed paths with one (or more) of our vets back in 1997. Speaking of Cibrian’s alter ego, exec producer Ann Donahue says reports that he’ll be transferring from the Hollywood division are “a misnomer… He’s actually worked robbery homicide in L.A.”

Question: How soon into CSI: Miami’s premiere before Delko is found? –Jimmy

Ausiello: “We find him in the first two minutes and he is unconscious,” reveals Ann Donahue, who adds that the flashback portion of the ep begins while he’s en route to the hospital. “The ambulance is hurtling down alligator alley and we [close in] on the license plate, which says ‘09. And then we change the license plate to ‘97 and suddenly he’s in his tow truck.” [Source: EW]
