Eads is the last of the remaining actors who have stuck with the procedural since the pilot. Paul Guilfoyle (Captain Jim Brass) was the second-longest-running cast member; he left last year after 14 seasons.

Aside from 'CSI', Eads has starred in the television movie Monte Walsh and Evel Knievel as Knievel. He also starred in the series 'Savannah' and guest-starred in several episodes of 'ER.' His additional television film credits include 'The Dog Walker,' 'The Spring,' 'Broken Crown' and 'The Ultimate Lie.' Among his feature film credits are Only in America and Dust to Dust.

About CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION - CSI is a fast-paced drama about a team of forensic investigators trained to solve crimes by examining the evidence. They are on the case 24/7, scouring the scene, collecting the irrefutable evidence and finding the missing pieces that will solve the mystery. D.B. Russell, the CSI Supervisor for the grave shift is a family man and scientist, but not a nerd. Son of hippie parents, he's a "Left Coast" SHERLOCK Holmes who devours crime novels and looks at every crime scene as if it were a story waiting to be told.

Other CSI members include Julie Finlay, the team's Assistant Night Shift Supervisor who worked with D.B. in Seattle; Nick Stokes, the conscience of the team, often driven by his emotional connection to the victim to always get the job done; Sara Sidle, aka Mrs. Grissom, the moral compass of the team who is RELENTLESS in her pursuit of criminals; Greg Sanders, once an off-beat tech analyst and now an experienced and intuitive crime solver; and Morgan Brody, an exile from the Los Angeles Crime Lab and the daughter of Undersheriff Ecklie. She's a natural born investigator who still has a lot to learn about politics and family. The CSI team members also work closely with Captain Jim Brass, a seasoned detective and protector of CSI, sometimes to a fault; Dr. Albert Robbins, the ever-professional medical examiner; his wise-cracking assistant, David Phillips; and David Hodges, a tech of many talents who often rubs people the wrong way, but never fails to deliver.
