Occasionally, the cast still shot on location in Las Vegas during 2000 and 2001's [[CSI: Crime Scene Investigation season 1|season one]]<ref>{{citation |url=https://archive.org/details/ASG-Danny-Cannon-and-Billy-Petersen-CSI-October-2000-III|title=Danny Cannon and Billy Petersen, CSI - October 2000|publisher=Internet Archive|date=24 November 2024|access-date=24 December 2024}}</ref> (the [[CSI: Crime Scene Investigation season 4|season-four]] DVD set revealed that the episode "Suckers" was mostly shot during December 2003 in Las Vegas, where they filmed a Gothic club scene on location for rent, and in January 2004, some scenes were filmed at [[Caesars Palace]]), although Las Vegas was primarily used for [[second unit]] photography such as exterior shots of streets.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://members.aol.com/JRD203/csi-locations.htm|title=Filming/Locations |access-date=May 15, 2008 |publisher=Elyse'sCSI |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080706065808/http://members.aol.com/JRD203/csi-locations.htm |archive-date=July 6, 2008}}</ref> Other California locations include [[Verdugo Hills High School]], [[UCLA]]'s [[Royce Hall]], [[Pasadena City Hall]], and [[California State University, Los Angeles]]. After [[CSI: Crime Scene Investigation season 5|season five]], ''CSI'' episodes were primarily filmed at [[Universal Studios Hollywood]] in [[Universal City, California]], but since Santa Clarita's surroundings had proven so versatile, ''CSI'' continued to shoot some outdoor scenes there.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.csifiles.com/news/120805_01.shtml |title='The Unit' Takes Over CSI's Old Studio |access-date=May 15, 2008 |publisher=CSI Files.com/LA Daily News}}</ref>
