More news from CSI Files... www.csifiles.com/content/2013/08/eads-takes-leave-of-absence-from-csi/Just went over to another board and boy are they upset. They are putting all the blame on the writer without knowing the whole story. I am happy that George feels so strongly about his character and felt he had to stand up for Nick but writers feel just as strongly about what they write and they are very protective of what they write. I have a feeling that this whole thing has been blown way out of proportion. Also there was no need for the person reporting this story to bring up the fact that the writer was pregnant. Was it George who decided to take a leave or was it tptb who decided he take a leave?

Candy, I think you got the 'blown out of proportion' stuff right. The episodes are planned out in advance, so I'm thinking this was a planned absence, not a 'George got into it with a pregnant writer, it got back to Carol, and now George is off the show for a few episodes as a result' thing.
And what does the writer being 8 months pregnant have to do with the price of eggs? They mentioned it a couple of times, like how dare George argue with a pregnant woman! Why mention it, other than to make George look like a big bully?
Kinda reminds me of when Laurence Fishburne first came on and the National Enquirer reported him throwing his weight around and making outrageous demands. Makes for good copy, but not much truth attached.

Well, so much for me being Nick Stokes dangerous woman. I really don't know what to say about this entire situation. I haven't heard anything about him taking a leave of absence so I don't know if it was the result of this argument or if he just got the release date for his movie and will be making the talk show rounds. Either one is very possible. Now, as for the reporting, I'm so pissed off as a woman. I don't have a reaction to George at all on this, but this has made women look bad. They are basically saying that a woman who's pregnant isn't strong enough to be working and therefore has to go crybabying to the boss. All those years of fighting for woman's rights, went flushing down the toilet on this one. Luckily this is just entertainment news so it shouldn't get much airplay.

Wasn't there something in the news recently about a man waking up from a coma speaking a foreign language? I think it was in FL.

This is from CSI Files...
Executive Producer Don McGill offers another tease about CSI: Crime Scene Investigation’s season premiere tragedy. (Spoilers after the jump!)
As CSI Files previously reported, someone close to the CSI family will die in the premiere, and the episode opens with the funeral before flashing back to reveal the events leading up to that moment. “It will be clear whose memorial service it is at the very end of the show, and I think it will very much be a surprise and a shock to the audience,” McGill told TV Guide. He also revealed that there will be more than one recognizable victim in the episode. “As more characters die, it will be interesting for the audience to question who is in the casket.”
Someone mentioned on another board that it would throw everyone for a loop if the person turned out to be Grissom. It would explain why Grissom let Sara go but wouldn't explain why DB feels responsible. Then OF and another poster said Sara wouldn't be sitting so far away if it was Grissom and something was said about a ring. I looked at those pictures and didn't see the ring that some are saying Sara is wearing again. Anyway my point is if it is Grissom Sara would distance herself from everything and everyone. That is the way Sara is.
But I think we all agree it is going to be Ellie in the casket. In the promo you see Brass with tears in his eyes. Brass wouldn't cry for just anyone, except Ellie and Grissom.
Tammy, you want to kill me now or later for thinking it might be Grissom. Don McGill keeps saying that we will be "shocked" by the end of the episode as to who has died. Ellie's death will not come as a shock but Grissom's would.
Maybe it will be one of the Detectives. I heard Det Crawford will be back for some episodes this season. One of the regular Detectives dying would shock us.

I actually wondered if it was Grissom myself. That would actually be preferable to the whole GSR fiasco that they've created...I think. What bothers me more than them breaking up GSR is that they felt the need to once again give Sara a reason to be miserable. Why couldn't they just leave her happy. I think she's gone through enough at this point, just let her be happy however.
I'm not so sure Brass wouldn't cry for anyone but Grissom or Ellie. I think that tough guy act he puts on is just a front. He's a pretty sensitive guy. He looked pretty teary eyed at Warrick's funeral. I think any of the team or any of the detectives he's worked with for awhile, or even his ex-wife he might get a little teary over.
I really don't think it's Ellie. The reason being is that I don't think that would be shocking for anyone. Most of us are expecting it to be Ellie so in my opinion if it is indeed someone who will shock the audience as Don said, that rules her out. Some have said maybe Miss Kitty, but I don't know if that would be all that shocking either. I'm also not sure she would cause Brass to cry. Unless his tears aren't because of the funeral and who died but rather of relief that it wasn't Ellie. Or maybe a combination of the sadness & relief....
Maybe it's Nick. Maybe his leave of absence isn't actually a leave of absence. Maybe they had to call it that to throw us off so we didn't know it was him who dies in the premiere. If they said that George was done that would spoil the whole thing for everyone because we'd all figure it out...I certainly hope it's not, but I think it's equally as possible as it being Grissom, either of which could happen the way things have been going lately.
Either way we only have 10 more days to wait.

I agree that that's a bit of a stretch, even for Shane. Not once since Morgan made her debut in the Ray Langston days did it cross my mind that she was anything like Grissom. In one of the 'extras' in last season's DVD set, Carol M declared that Finn was "the female Grissom". Um....no. People are so hot to have Grissom back that they're projecting his qualities onto other characters. Don't see it, personally.

Thinking back to the very first time I saw Morgan during those Ray years, thanks Robin, i remember her sitting in a junk yard with a rat in a cage or something like that eating peanut butter out of the jar with her fingers and i remember saying at the time that that was something i could see Grissom do. In fact didn't Grissom do something like that in the Butterflied episode with Catherine finding him eating peanut butter at a crime scene. But still nothing like Shane was implying.

I always thought that Nick was the one who was assimilating Grissom, i.e. going to those bug conferences, eating a bug at the diner, etc. One of my favorite examples of this was also from the Ray Langston era:
Ray: Where's the bug man when you need him? (a reference to Grissom) Nick: He's right here! (referring to himself - Nick has become the bug man!)
I did appreciate Shane's comments about Morgan and Ecklie's relationship and how nicely that's developed. In that regard, I think he's spot on.
