Observations

 Police procedurals tended to have newbies joining the team Numb3rs:  David Sinclair (season 1 - black guy); Colby Granger (season 2); Megan Reeves (season 2 - woman) CSI: NY: Lindsey Monroe (season 2 - woman) after Aiden left FBI: International: Cameron Vo (season 1 - woman) Numb3rs ' female cast tended to not stick around behavior analyst (Terry Lake) left at end of season 1 left she was replaced by Megan Reeves (who left in season 4) Liz Warner joined in season 3 but I felt like her actress was guest cast early on Amita was only one to stick around but why do I feel like she was guest cast early on as well I always liked foreign humor and slapstick humor and sex jokes.   FBI: International had foreign detective from season 1, episode 7 saying "Asylum?  What is that - an energy drink?"  Creative joke.
