Awwww. I been watching some CSI stuff tonight (old and new), and decided to go on a GSR website :p So watched lots of GSR clips, then watched a clip of Sara's final eppy :( It's sad I reckon (for us GSR fans anyway :lol:). Poor Gwissy. If Will does leave as has been rumoured, then maybe he'll decide taht he can be without Sara no more :D.
Question: What's the latest on William Petersen's expiring CSI contract?— Jason
Ausiello: My CSI spy tells me that showrunner Carol Mendelsohn's recent decision to re-sign for four more years should go a long way in getting Petersen to stick around. "She's been with the show from the start," says my mole, "and that continuity and stability is important to him."
Black day for all Grissom and Sara fans. Next Tuesday is Jorja Fox last episode as Sara Sidle. (Stop cheering Jojo):lol:
You can hear me from there then Kath!! Sorry - didn't think I was cheering "that" loudly - yeh right haha :rotfl:Quote:

Oh you cruel woman you. Tut, Tut. :lol: Apart for Sara departure did you see Tuesday's episode got to be on of the best yet. Especially with Jack Malone from Without a Trace in it. I was so glad that Five US showed the concluding part after CSI as I was wondering if I would have to wait a year to see it as WAT is a series ahead in the US. That's 3 episodes of Jack Malone I've had this week :wub: ~(Secret request to CBS. Can we have Don Flack in CSI or WAT)

My secret request to CBS - could Don Flack pay me a home visit please? :D :wub:
It was pretty good, but I've also seen better if you see what I mean.Quote:

Ausiello: Well, Gary Sinise isn't the only CSI star with a new lady friend in his future. I hear that CSI: Original Flavor is looking for a female DA who will help Grissom get over a serious illness so he can help her make an important indictment stick. And no, that's not a double entendre. At least I don't think it is.
William Petersen has agreed to return for a ninth season of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.
The star pulled out during the last run to take an on-stage role and he wants to return to the play this year.
However, The Hollywood Reporter said that after "lengthy negotiations" he would appear in a reduced number of episodes.
Petersen has been a fixture since the show began and is also an executive producer.
P.S. There will only be 17 episodes of season 8 instead of the usual 24, This is due to the strike, don't know about Miami or New York yet. Vegas returns to the US screens on Thursday 3 April so hopefully we won't have to wait too long before it's back on our screens.
Gary Dourdan (Warrick) Leaving CSI
With all the attention focused on William Petersen's successful contract negotiations, this ginormous scoopbit nearly slipped right by: Sources confirm to me exclusively that original CSIer Gary Dourdan — whose contract is also set to expire next month — is leaving the show. Although a precise timeframe is not known, CSI's May 15 season finale could serve as Warrick's swan song.
Regarding Dourdan's exit, a CBS spokesperson says, "We can't confirm or deny this information."
This is the second major departure to rock CSI this season. As anyone with a pulse and/or access to TVGuide.com knows, Jorja Fox made her final appearance as Sara in November. The good news: Marg Helgenberger and George Eads are expected to follow Petersen's lead and re-up with the show.
Meanwhile, CSI execs aren't wasting any time searching for Dourdan's replacement. I'm told producers have put out a casting call for a new male series regular in his late twenties to early thirties to play Ray Santoro, a "handsome, smart and athletic" CSI who transfers from Henderson to join the graveyard shift at the Las Vegas crime lab.
OK, CSI fans: Are you sad to see Dourdan/Warrick go? And in terms of the potential impact to the show, is this less than, equal to or greater than Fox's exit last fall? Too shocked to process it all? Splash some cold Snapple on your face and start discussing!
