　　Plot of the series:
　　In the series “Catherine Season 4 Favorites,” the reign of the Great Empress of Russia, Catherine Alekseevna II, continues. The events take place in 1779, when the queen has been on the throne for seventeen years and has reached the peak of her greatness. Her fame spread not only to neighboring countries, but throughout Europe. Such a nickname as “Great” was assigned to her by the high society of Europe, thanks to the efforts of the influential Princess Dashkova, who was always devoted to Catherine II.
　　Upon returning from abroad, Catherine II is helped by the ruler’s main associate, Ekaterina Romanovna Dashkova. Meanwhile, her husband mentioned in the series, Prince Grigory Alexandrovich Potemkin, remaining in second place in the State, is no longer her favorite. New favorites appear one after another, but they are all under the close supervision of Potemkin. None of the new favorites can maintain their position for long. Catherine plays at love, exalting herself to the point that no man deserves her true love. However, the heart does not obey the mind.
　　Young handsome Alexander Lanskoy won the heart of the queen, but ultimately broke it. Despite the stormy love affairs, Catherine the Second is not distracted for a minute from state affairs. The time comes when you have to think about the heir to the throne. Despite the fact that the Empress has a son, Pavel Petrovich, who is the main legal heir to the Russian throne, Catherine does not consider him a worthy successor. She decides to make her grandson, Alexander, her heir. Pavel is determined and ready to fight for his legitimate rights to the throne of Russia. A new fight for the Russian throne begins.
　　The seventeen-year reign of Catherine II was marked by her powerful influence on both domestic and foreign policy of Russia. She took active steps to modernize the country, absorbing foreign achievements and practices. The reforms of Catherine II were aimed at strengthening the state and increasing its influence in Europe. She also actively pursued foreign policy, expanding the territory of the Russian Empire and improving the army and navy.
　　At the same time, intrigue and political manipulation often accompanied the life of Catherine II. She divided her time between government affairs and her personal life, in which love affairs and passions played a significant role. Catherine II was known for her affairs with various men, including statesmen and foreign diplomats.
　　The new fight for the throne, described in the series "Catherine Season 4's Favorites", represents a dramatic turn for the empire. The heir to the throne, Pavel Petrovich, is faced with a choice - to fight for his legacy or to come to terms with his grandmother's decision. He gathers around himself supporters and forces ready to support his claims. Russia's fate largely depends on the outcome of this power struggle.
　　Thus, the series “Catherine Season 4 Favorites” presents a fascinating historical drama in which love intrigues, political manipulations and the struggle for power are intertwined. It allows us to look into the life of one of the most magnificent women in history and see how her decisions and actions influenced the fate of the state and her own family.

　　在纷纷扰扰之间，人与人的关系破裂、修复、弥合，周而复始……

　　这部由犯罪现场衍生而来的剧集自CBS播出以来收到极大好评。场景发生在佛罗里达州的阳光迈阿密，以隶属于迈阿密犯罪鉴证科的犯罪现场调查小组为主线，他们频频出入各种案发现场寻找证据和蛛丝马迹，利用最先进的科技手段，将毫无关联的线索与支离破碎的疑点拼凑起来，抓捕罪犯。
　　迈阿密犯罪鉴证科由前谋杀科探员为主管，带领几位下属：拥有双语能力的拆弹专家、搜查员、 DNA监证人员、验尸官及潜水专家继续破解刑案。全新科学监证队伍的队员合作无间，经过他们有条理的分析，在高科技的辅助下，让他们完满地完成任务。新系列除由全新演员演出外，新增了户外和搜查场面，而非只有化验室运作场景，让观众耳目一新。
　　准确点说，CSI中的角色不应叫做法医，他们应被称为“科学家”。之所以这么说，是因为在破案过程中，他们除了对死者尸体进行调查外，还会对凶案现场的一些现象，包括很小的细节进行取证和研究，更多的在于表现一些法医学前沿的尖端高科技侦破技术，包括弹道学、犯罪危险因子学、法医毒理学、DNA破裂鉴定、咬痕与血型分析、齿科学、昆虫学、痕迹学、犯罪变态心理学等。
　　影片对于普通受众平时很难接触到的专业技术，并没有敷衍了事一笔带过，而是真正地从科学技术的角度来拍摄。如通过使用死者等量人体模型，在其坠楼的位置，用不同的方式 ——被他人推下或自由落体，观其与真实坠楼位置的异同，判断是谋杀还是自杀；通过观察高度腐烂死者身上苍蝇的成长阶段，得出被害人死亡时间；通过研究血液喷溅形状、大小和位置，推断案发时被害人遭袭击的方式；通过枪支弹道的磨损与凶案现场的子弹划痕比较，判断枪弹与案件的关联。在视觉上，像子弹如何在体内穿梭、血管器官如何被破坏等等，也都通过影片真实的展现出来，让人有种在实验室看实验演变直到得出结果的
