Truth be told I have not watched a new episode of CSI in years, since I moved to LA in 2006. When I lived in New Zealand it was one of the few shows that my Dad, sister and I could agree on watching. I loved CSI for many years though and it happened to be a casualty on my TV schedule as there is so much good television on and although I've tried I can't watch it all. But when I heard that this season (the shows eleventh, yes eleventh!) will probably be Marg Helgenberger's last, a wave of sadness rushed over me. Helgenberger's single mum Catherine Willow's was always my favourite character, she'd had a rough past and got her life together to be a successful forensic scientist and crime scene investigator. And although other characters such as Sara Sidle (Jorja Fox) and Gil Grissom (William Peterson) have left, CSI without Catherine just doesn't seem like CSI to me. But whatever happens as long as the ratings are good the show will go on! And I'm sure one day I'll catch up on the last few seasons of CSI and watch Catherine Willows kick butt!
Catch new episodes of CSI on Thursdays at 9pm on CBS and reruns on Spike. Or check out www.cbs.com
