The Courier is an advertiser sponsored, week-long micro-series debuted in 2006 on CBS, during the first act break of CSI: Miami. The premiere is a sixty-second installment followed by forty second editions. It tells the story of a mystery man named "iiro" who races against time to uncover clues and perform a sequence of deadly tasks in a desperate attempt to rescue his kidnapped wife. The debut episode of "The Courier" utilized an original composition from Los Angeles experimental composer Devin Sarno.
After each broadcast episode of "The Courier" viewers were able to go to CBS.com to find out more about "iiro" (played by magician and BASE jumper Iiro Seppänen) and his adventures. The web site offered each episode for viewing on-demand after its broadcast, and fleshed out the cryptic narrative via rich video and text components.
