THE BLUE PAINT SERIAL KILLER RETURNS AND THE CSI GRAVEYARD SHIFT MUST USE ALL OF THEIR RESOURCES TO SOLVE THE MURDERS OF FOUR FEMALE COLLEGE STUDENTS, ON "CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION," THURSDAY, NOV. 4

Aisha Tyler ("Friends") Guest Stars

"What's Eating Gilbert Grissom" -- Grissom is haunted by the return of the blue paint serial killer that got away two years ago, on CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, Thursday, Nov. 4 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Ken Fink directed the episode written by Sarah Goldfinger.

Aisha Tyler ("Friends") guest stars as the new DNA lab technician.

As the CSI team investigates the multiple murders on the WLVU college campus, they realize that the murders took place on the two-year anniversary of the execution of John Mathers, a man found guilty of murdering a woman in the same manner as these new victims at this college campus. The main clue tying four murders together is the blue paint found on all the victims' hands. The killer fooled the CSI team two years ago, when another murder took place the night of John Mathers' execution, and Grissom and team are determined to not let that happen again.

GRISSOM WORKS WITH A CSI FROM THE DAYSHIFT ON THE MURDER AND KIDNAPPING CASE OF TWO HIGH SCHOOL CLASSMATES, ON "CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION," THURSDAY, NOV. 11

Louise Lombard ("Hidalgo"), Xander Berkley ("24") and Jon Tenney ("Brooklyn South") Guest Star

"Formalities" -- Grissom works with a new CSI from the dayshift on an apparent kidnapping from a high school formal held at a Vegas casino, on CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, Thursday, Nov. 11 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Bill Eagles directed the episode written by Dustin Lee Abrahams and Naren Shankar, one of the series' executive producers.

Louise Lombard ("Hidalgo") guest stars as a dayshift CSI working with Grissom. Xander Berkely ("24") returns as Sheriff Atwater and Jon Tenney ("Brooklyn South") guest stars as the father of kidnapping victim.

Grissom abruptly leaves a dinner honoring Conrad Ecklie's (Marc Vann) appointment to new Assistant Director of the Crime Lab after he gets an urgent page to rush across the street to a hotel suite where a high school student was found dead. Dayshift CSI Sofia Curtis (Lombard) assists Grissom with the case. The autopsy reveals that the victim died of suffocation after one of her classmates was kidnapped from the party. The CSI team now races to find the kidnapped victim before she is found dead, too.
