'CSI: Miami' Producer Explains the Complex Sides of Horatio Caine
With the seventh season of CSI: Miami well underway, fans are getting caught up in the suspense and drama of this series. The seventh installment of CSI: Miami, which brings back David Caruso and his shades, filled us in on what happened to Horatio Caine after he was shot back in the finale of season six. Recently, supervising producer Corey Miller spoke to CSI Files to reveal some juicy tidbits on what’s to come on this season of CSI: Miami.
“We would definitely like to explore Horatio's relationship with his son some more this season,” Miller says of Horatio and his son Kyle. “Since we don't typically ‘go home’ with our characters, it has been a challenge to keep Kyle on the front burner, because we do not want him to have to be in trouble every time he comes around. But we are working on ways to further that dynamic, despite the obstacle.”
Moreover, Miller says explains that “because of Julia's erratic behavior, Horatio will have to continue to monitor the ever-evolving situation. Julia hasn't been convicted of a crime since she came to Miami, but the suspicion still lingers.”
He says that “We would like to be able to explore whether this has all been some evil design on her part, or if she is just a magnet for trouble.”
More importantly, “Horatio will do what is best to protect his son, while continuing to explore his own feelings towards Julia.”
Miller continues to explain the complexity of Horatio’s character, saying that he lost so many important people in his life such as his parents, his brother and wife. But most of all, it was the death of Marisol which truly changed him.
“Horatio has always been a "Dirty Harry"-style cop, in that he sometimes colors outside the lines to protect the innocent,” Miller explained. “A big reason for that, I believe, is that even though Horatio doesn't wear his emotions on his sleeve, he deeply feels every loss that he has experienced.”
He pointed out that her death “changed him in a unique way. If a person as angelic and pure as Marisol could die, it is practically like the death of hope. Horatio felt that loss in a different way than any other, despite the fact they didn't have much time together. As a result, I do think Horatio's dark side has been simmering right underneath the surface.”
