How about the fact that they work almost exclusively in the dark, with only tiny flashlights to illuminate their work areas?  Especially the scenes in the morgue!

	The bit that gets me about CSI is the apparent fact that the departments of
	both cities are staffed almost entirely by beautiful young women who carry
	out their duties wearing party frocks, accessorised by the tiniest of latex
	gloves, and with their long hair flowing free. Never mind any worries about
	contaminating the evidence - I would be more concerned about the evidence
	contaminating me!
