Original flavor "CSI" had more than 63 million viewers worldwide, making it the champion. On the comedy side, ABC's "Desperate Housewives" was honored.
"CSI: Miami" and "House" have also taken home the award.
"CSI" recently wrapped Season 12. Original series star Marg Helgenberger left and was replaced by Elisabeth Shue. CBS renewed "CSI" for Season 13 and "CSI: NY" for Season 9, but canceled "CSI: Miami." "CSI" and "CSI: NY" will be back in the fall of 2012.
