According to TV Guide, there’s going to be a new hunk in the cast of CSI: Miami. The show is already full of beautiful people! How exciting that we’ll get a new one to enjoy in season 8!

Former Ugly Betty and Third Watch star Eddie Cibrian will be joining the Miami CSIs in their battle against the Russian mob and whomever else dares to threaten the peace in Miami.

I think he’ll make a great addition to the show. What do you think?

Are you like me and already wondering what’s in store for CSI: Miami fans in season 8? Well, luckily, there’s a bit of a spoiler to be had on this. We do know that Eric Delko (Adam Rodriguez) will survive the cliffhanger, because he’s back fro the next season. Whew! At least we know that much…now if we could just lean more about who will return for season 6 of CSI: NY.

Here’s also a quick update for fans of Rory Cochrane, who played Speedle on CSI: Miami.

Question: CSI: Miami scoop? Please tell me Delko survives. –Jennifer

Ausiello: Sources confirm that Adam Rodriguez will be back next season, so, yeah, I think it’s safe to say Delko survives. Meanwhile, we caught up with Rodriguez’s former costar, Rory Cochrane, at the premiere of his new film, Public Enemies, and asked him whether another Speedle cameo was in his future. His answer was, um, interesting. “I can’t really talk about it,” he said. “They talked to me about something that I cannot get into details about… I did come back once as a figment of Delko’s imagination, but I am pretty sure that is it for me on that show. I told them not to kill me but they didn’t take my advice.” [Source: EW]

There’s no definite news about it, but it could be a very strong possibility. According to Kristin at E! Online, last week when Emily Procter from CSI: Miami was in Monaco for the Monte Carlo TV Festival she told the press that she is hoping to have a baby in her personal life this year and it may be something that will work out on screen too.

Even though Emily is unattached, she feels that it’s time for her to have children of her own. Here’s what she said about it:

“I am hoping this is my year to have children,” she says. “I understand that I am possibly more European in my views of marriage. I am not going to say I’m not going to get married, but it’s not my priority. I think the Eric [Adam Rodriguez] and Calleigh story will work nicely if this is my year to get pregnant, and hopefully it will be.”

What do you think about the possibility of Eric & Calleigh having a baby? What kinds of new dynamics will it bring to the series? I’d like to hear your thoughts!

At the Monte Carlo Television Festival in Monaco, CSI: Miami star Emily Procter was a vision in red. She wore this fabulous red dress to the closing ceremonies for the festival and the contrast with her blonde hair was stunning!

Here are some photos of her from the event:

Emily Procter stopped by for a photo session to help promote CSI Miami during the 49th Monte-Carlo TV Festival in Monaco today. She’s looking terrific in these photos, don’t you think?

According to Variety, the annual Monte Carlo TV Festival begins on Sunday in Monaco. And just like in years past, two fo the CSI series will compete for the title of most-watched TV drama, worldwide.

This year, CSI: Vegas, CSI: Miami & House MD will go head to head for the title. The nominations were chosen by the Producers’ Guld of America and one of them will bring home the title this year. I’ll keep you posted.

The fest has had to develop a new identity since it abandoned its market in 2001. CEO David Tomatis said Tuesday that it now serves as a networking event for producers and talent; a platform for international productions in its six competitive sections; and an opportunity for some 350 invited journos, mostly from Europe, to meet U.S. talent.

As a fan of all three of the CSI series, I see it as a 2 out of 3 chance of winning. Those are great odds!!

Great news for CSI: Vegas and CSI: Miami fans! We can pre-order the DVDs of the latest seasons at Amazon.com.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, season 9 and CSI: Miami will each be shipped to you as soon as they are relased, and each one is pre-order priced at only $34.99.

I’m really happy that I got mine ordered so I can keep my collections complete. And I’ll let you know when the CSI: NY DVDs are available for pre-order, so be sure to check back.
