CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

Hall is playing the character of Doctor Albert "Al" Robbins, who is the Chief Medical Examiner in the CSI team and also the head county coroner. Although the character was introduced as a recurring one through out the first two seasons, from season three onwards it took form of a full fledged main character. Al is a close friend of Dr. Gilbert Grissom and is married with three children. There are often such times when he is the only one who understands the team leader, Grissom and this is true for the reverse cases too. Doctor Al, in an accident while trying to dig up a floor at a crime scene, lost his legs and now has two prosthetic limbs.
