That’s right! According to TV Guide, there’s a CSI movie in the works! And even better news is that William Petersen will return to play Gil Grissom in it. Here’s a quote from William about the movie:
“Yes, there will be a movie,” Petersen told Britain’s Radio Times. Although he is sure fans might be “a little trepidatious,” Petersen promises the move to the big screen will not be done haphazardly.
“Usually people leave it till a series has finished —they did that with The X-Files and Sex and the City,” Petersen said. “But it’s about finding the right story, there …read more

Here are some photos of William Petersen, who plyed CSI: Vegas’ Gil Grissom for over 8 seasons. He and his wife were photographed when they attended the International Digital Emmys at MIPTV. MIPTV is the world’s largest audiovisual entertainment trade show and was held in Cannes.
I think it’s cool that he seems to have stopped coloring his hair as I’m sure he was told to do for the character. He looks terrific no matter what. But I’m sure he’s having fun now that the long production days are behind him. I’m happy for him, even though I miss him on …read more

On Tuesday, William Petersen, aka Gil Grissom was honored with his own star on the Walk of Fame. For those of you who want to see it, it’s located in front of Musso’s & Franks Restaurant in Los Angeles.
And nearly all of his fellow CSI: Vegas co-stars were there to celebrate the occasion with him. I don’t see Lauren Lee Smith, Wallace Langham, Paul Guilfoyle or Gary Dourdan, But Robert David Hall, David Berman, Liz Vassey, George Eads, Jorja Fox, Eric Szmanda, Marg Helgenberger and Archie Kao all were there.
Here are some cute photos of them at the …read more

Here’s a sneak peek at one of the touching scenes from tonight’s episode of CSI: Vegas. If this is any indication of how emotional it’s going to be, get the tissues ready!
In this scene, Grissom explains a bit to Nick about forensic astronomy (very cool concept!) and then Nick tells him how he values all the things he’s learned from Grissom. It’s a great scene where they both seem to get emotional, but just like macho guys often do, they try to pretend it doesn’t.

CBS just relased this little clip of William Petersen talking about what it’s like to leave the show after 8 and a half years. He says that all the things Grissom is going to go through on screen tonight are the same things he’s going through in real life. Grissom is leaving the people and the job he’s grown to love, and so is Petersen. It really seems to be bitter sweet for him. And it make me wonder why he’s leaving the show if he loves it so much…
Tonight is Grissom’s last episode as a regular CSI: Vegas cast …read more

Very Important!!
Timeshift Alert!!
Tomorrow night President Bush will be making his farewell speech at 8/7c on all the networks. Because of that, if you plan to record the two episodes of CSI: Vegas, be sure to allow a lot of extra time at the end.
The networks have been told the speech will only last 15 minutes, but these things often run even later than expected. I know we won’t want to miss the end of Grissom’s last episode…so be sure to record with that in mind!!!
