Is Sara Sidle Saying So Long
Lot’s of discussion on the public announcement of the quasi-secret romance between Sara Sidle, played by Jorja Fox, and William Petersen’s Grissom character on CSI:.
The more pending discussion should be whether or not Jorja Fox will be around at all next season. TV Guide’s Michael Ausiello is reporting that Sara Sidle’s character may have a pending death in-store for her character.
How huge would that be of a season finale. I think it would make the miniature killer seem pretty small, excuse the pun. We’re just now getting some secret spice into the life of two characters on the show and they end up killing one off.

Confession time: I’ve never really been that fond of Sara. She’s the one character I never really enjoyed and hope they do find another character to replace her.
(Ok, now I’m going to hear a lot of flack for this one, right?) ;-)

I wouldn’t want them to cut off sara. I like the characters in the show just the way they are. I enjoy watching the show because of them. CSI may be doing a huge mistake taking or even thinking about taking her off the show. The show might not be the same. They might pick an actor who might not even be good enough or fit the show the right way. I don’t know, I don’t agree. My opinion, I respect yours.

If Sara goes the chemistry between the entire cast and crew will be thrown off. The show would make a huge mistake by cutting her loose, even though Sara as the miniature killer would be the greatest twist ever!

I love Sara… she is one of the charictors that you look up to because she speeks her mind and is not affraid to go after what she wants. And why would she quit now I mean her charictor is getting so big and she had a contrac problem a few years ago (Nick too). And I would be so sad because her and Grissom make such a CUTE couple.
Sara Sidle and Gill Grissom 4 ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sara has been my favourite character from the start, she can’t die!:( She really reminds me of myself + she loves animals and is a vegetarian like me :D We even look alike (unintented)! Oh and GSR all the way!!! Grillows will never happen! I know I just made some people mad but I don’t care because it’s the truth. Why would they wanne kill off Sara? Just when GSR is becoming more and more interesting and everything is going fine in her life right now. I guess we’ll have to keep waiting to find find out.

I like the team as it is. I think that the people on the team has been to close to death, so often that it would be ridicilus to kill one of them. and what would the team be with out Sara Sidle? I really like this charather becaus she has so many emotions and you never know where she are…
Alice
May 14, 2007 at 10:47 am
i actually love sara sidle, shes amazing, i think if they cut her off the show wouldn’t be the same at all!!
i like her because she is the different one in the show, you know all the others are normal, and proffesional and kind of keep them selves to them selve, where as sara isnt the same, she tells it how it is, shes got her own opinion on everything and she does it HER way..i recon thats why grissom wanted her, and she is so like us ‘normal people’ you know with the whole emotions, sarcasticness, and humour!!
i love it!!
shes got to stay!

If Sarah is killed, its because Jorja wants out of the show. There have been rumors of that for a while. Also, Gil and Lady Heather would be the perfect couple. She knows him better than anyone, and she has the mind and the hotness!

Tv guide said Jorja Fox will probably get fired, she didnt show up to film the original ending. it was supposed to be dramatic and bloody. the producers had to do a rewrite without her. she says because she didnt want to end like that. but she is supposed to die, and wont return next year. (because she cant get a raise). peterson wants to do more broadway theatre and wont be around much in season 8. thats the word people, sorry if u dont like it! i wont watch if this happens.

(i know im watchin!) i have heard that all this stuff is a big lie… who really knows for sure what is going on! i think that they are just thinkin about the ratings!! i mean any csi watcher (plus ppl that like/hate jorja fox) will be watching. i guess we all will just have to wait and see

I bet sara is gonna be fine. I hope so because i love her on the show, the whole gang is awesome together. CSI is awesome, and I like the way it is. I was so angry that i couldn’t see if she survives or not. I CAN’T wait till season 8. I hope its awesome like season 7 and sara STAYS!!

I think that they need to keep sara. her reletionship with Grissom would allow for further growth in his character to show different dimensions that aren’t just about bugs and dead things. We will be able to see him as more human than large scientific book of really cool knowledge.
I love Grissom he’s my favorite!
Go GSR!!!!!woooo!

Oh boy!!!! I can’t stand other comments like” if Sara dies I will stop watching the show” Come on people, do you really think that Sara and her relationship with Grissom are the only things that makes the show worth watching? Give me a break..What about the other characters, such as Cath, Brass, Warrick etc..Csi isn’t a soap opera!!!!
claire
Aug 13, 2007 at 5:42 am
i don’t see why she should leave coz she is one of the best characters there is plus the show is brill the way it is and if they put in a character that isnt as good it would ruin the show i think she should stay
miah

i think Sara SHOULD stay or i wont b watching it anymore they should stay together specially the GSR
The Invalid

Sara and Grissom belong together. It has never been Catherine and Grissom, They were just good friends and anyway Catherine and Warrick have also had a bit of chemistry.
I think that they should kill off Ecklie, coz hes an ass and noone likes him whereas a poll showed that 71% of CSI viewers prefer Sara to Catherine.
The Inavalid
Sep 3, 2007 at 10:07 am
I dont think that Sara will die because of when every one saw the advert for Nick getting buried alive they all thought he was gonna die but he didnt plus at the end of that promo for the premiere when Grissom is sighing and looking at somethink below him everyone he was looking at Saras dead body bet that was probably him looking at a rock and hoping that they found Sara and they just put that in to make the suspense unbearable for the audience
GSR FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!BECAUSE GEEKS LIKE GRISSOM AND SARA BELONG TOGETHER!!!

Yes they should kill of Ecklie but not Sarah she’s the best next to Greg of course. But we will see what happenes Sep. 27th on CBS @ 9 pm. Can’t wait for the show to air. Love You Sarah Please Don’t Go Alot Of Your Fans Will Miss You If You go:-(

I don’t think any one should die they need someone like Ecklie on the show and I like Sara but if Jorja leaves the show I’LL miss her and I hope she will be in something else I can watch.

It’s been said multiple times that Sara should live because her and Gil’s romance is just starting to emerge. However there are a few points I keep thinking about such as when Sara and Gil are talking about sex, she asks “I’m sure I don’t make you sad.” To which Gil replies, “No, you make me happy.” An obvious that they spent a night in bed at least once, probably at the end of Season six since it was the first major advancement of their relationship. Then again, some people might say it’s not even a first date without sex. To make this short, I have a small theory, although it may sound completely ludicrous–What if it turns out Sara is pregnant? I haven’t been able to watch enough episodes of season 7 to see if this plot is possible, although I have been able to read the transcripts. I have had better plots but at least a pregnancy sounds more believable than the “ultimate twist” of Sara as the miniature killer.

I don’t know what to say…. I’ve known that Sara and Grissom had a “thing” from the very beginning, and I’ve been waiting season after season for something to happen, and when it finally did (the episode when you see them in a bedroom with only bathrobes on) I was jumping up and down on the bed!! I was so happy!! I shouted to my fiancé that “I told you so!!! I knew it!!!” Man, I was walking on clouds the next day. I really can’t explain why I got so happy, but I really did. So, now I’ve been waiting for the new season to start again in Sweden (we are way behind), and to see their love to blossom, and now you’re saying that Sarah’s going to die?! That will be the end for my loveaffair with CSI, I’m telling you. This ain’t the first time they’ve blown a good show by splitting a couple or killing a favourite on TV. And people don’t like big changes like that on a long running TV show. Specially not when it comes to a show like this. They are like friends. We get to know them and love them. Gosh, we spend hours and hours among these guys!!!! But if it is Jorja who wants out because of money, then fix it!!! But I’m sure that she gets that she can’t get more money than the others. But if it comes down like that, give them all a rase, because the viewers will drop like a bomb!!!

I did a post about a website (http://www.csifanatic.com/2007/08/29/what-was-that-song/) that used to catalogue these songs for shows, sadly it doesn’t look like they’ve maintained their work for awhile.

if you check out the local tv listings for future csi episodes, under cast of caracters, jorja fox’s name no longer appears on the list. That is a pretty big give away. No Jorja Fox, and no Sara Sidle. Everojne else is there. Too bad…
Holly
Sep 23, 2007 at 7:51 pm
^That’s not necessarily an indication either way. She’s not listed as a guest actor either even though we know from the previews that she is in the first episode. They could just be leaving her name off to keep the suspense. She doesn’t appear in the TVGuide team picture, but she does appear in the team picture in a different ad.

If they do kill off Sara they’re going to lose about half of their viewers cause millions of people signed something saying they would never watch it again if she did die

Gribbs
Sep 27, 2007 at 5:52 am
I’ve been hoping that Sara lives but I’m split in half now and I’m almost dreading the premeire tonight. I have heard that in the next few episodes after tonight, Grissom finds a beehive in an old house and will be fascinated with colonization throughout the whole next season. If he’s not gonna be fascinated with Sara, it might mean she won’t live tonight.

the season premiere was awesomee!!! it was so scary though b/c it seemed like sara was going to die. good thing she didnt though cuz the next new episode looks greatt
DracoSensei
Sep 29, 2007 at 7:21 pm
She is the one character that dosn’t fit. Some ppl say kill Ecklie because noone likes him, that the whole freakin point to him, to HATE. Your supposed to like the good guys, but Sarah always getting her nose into things that she really shouldn’t be. If Grissom and Sarah were ever to get married, (knock on wood) I forsee a very emotionally abusive relationship, and unfortunately it would most likely be Grissom, with his calm anti-forcful personality, on the recieving end.
I’m sorry ppl, but Sarah has got to go.
I’m all for Detective Kurtis and Grissom.
@ DracoSensei
Sep 30, 2007 at 3:32 am
First of all it’s SARA without the h!!! Second of all It’s Curtis with a C and third of all SARA SIDLE IS ALIVE!!! And I’m sure when they get married, they’re going to be very happy together! They’re perfect for eachother and if you can’t even see how lovingly they look at eachother then you must be blind because it’s so cute.
GSR 4 EVER!
Oh and LONG LIVE SARA SIDLE!

I support GHR!!!

Sep 30, 2007 at 6:31 pm
dracosensei, i agree with you except for the part about curtis and grissom. lynn, i REALLY agree with you. guys, come on. sara is not the only character. my fav characters are grissom and catharine(sp?). (im probably getting chewed to pieces for this) i don’t like sara. she looks like she wears so much makeup it cracks, and grissom is too old for her(no offense grissom!!!) i think GSR is more of a daughter/father thing. GRILLOWS 4EVA!!!
Shea
Oct 2, 2007 at 6:17 am
Does it seem like they’ll break up or soomething in the next episode? In the promo, Sara says she became intimate “2 years ago” and then Grissom says “9 years ago.” They might have a big fight later where Sara asks Grissom why he seemed to ignore her feelings all the tiime before if he has loved her more than two years. P.S. I hate Ecklie…
Conrad
Oct 2, 2007 at 7:24 am
I don’t mean to favor murderer’s, but I think Jessica Collins played out excellent as the miniature killer. I was impressed [in Living Doll] and in the premiere, the few scenes of her talking to herself, and then the shot of her right before Sara wakes up suggests so many insights into what she’s thinking and her “psychotic break” behavior. It really helped with the storyline and the ending in the chopper. Ernie was there for Natalie, Grisssom was there for Sara…

ok, first of all, catherine and grissom? never going to happen, i dont even like her. i really liked the show before, all the characters worked perfectly together, and now its just not right. grissoms all alone! personally, i think the shows that came out after her departure are much worse (except for the one featuring hodges and those people) and i havnt even been bored watching it, and i seriously never get bored watching csi. If you dont want csi to die, bring back sara!
annie
Jan 24, 2008 at 7:13 pm
well guess what abbey? i don’t like sara! you guys are hopeless. csi isn’t some stupid soap opera. just because sara isn’t there with grissom doesn’t mean people should stop watching. it’s jorja fox’s own fault anyway, so why don’t you just go blame her!

I was sad to see Sarah leave CSI. The romantic interest that she and Grissom brought
to the show was a delightful change of pace.
I would love to see her retrurn to the show.
Wouln’t it be neat if she did return to Vegas
with her and Grissom’s child?
Jorja Fox is a tremendous actress. I wish
I knew if she will go on with something new.
