By • Filed in: MediaLink

In Marg’s latest TV Guide interview where she announced her possible departure from CSI, she mentioned that the cast members took a paycut when they signed for the new season.

According to the article, Marg now earns $375,000 per episode and is the third highest-paid actor in the drama category along with David Caruso (CSI: Miami) and Mark Harmon (NCIS), after Hugh Laurie (House) and Christopher Meloni & Mariska Hargitay (Law & Order: SVU).

By • Filed in: Gallery, MediaLink

In this week’s Télé 7 Jours (French TV Guide), there is an interview with CSI’s show runner Carol Mendelsohn regarding Marg’s statement on leaving the show after season 11. A scan of the interview has been uploaded to the gallery. You can click the thumbnail below to see it. We also had the interview translated into English. Many thanks to @veji_ninizik for sending us the scan and to MCO for helping with the translation!

Please do keep in mind that regardless of the subtitle and the last two questions and answers in the interview, it has been confirmed that the news about a CSI movie was a result of misunderstanding. There is no project for a CSI movie taking place in Paris right now or in the near future.

CSI: Desperate to Keep Marg Helgenberger

Executive producer Carol Mendelsohn is seeking a solution to prevent the departure of CSI Willows and confirms a project: CSI: Paris!

Will Marg Helgenberger really leave CSI as announced?
No way! Nothing’s final yet. Marg Helgenberger is back on the set since July 26. We just started filming season 11. Marg will be there throughout the new season that will last until May 2011.

By • Filed in: MediaLink

Anthony Zuiker, the creator of CSI and its two spin-offs who left the show to develop other projects, has returned to write for the show’s upcoming 11th season. Deadline Hollywood interviewed Zuiker about his comeback and the reason why he chose to return to the original CSI instead of one of the spin-offs. He was also asked about Marg’s announcement on leaving the show.

DH: Given Helgenberger’s statements that she plans to leave CSI after next season, could this be CSI’s final season?

AZ: Marg Helgenberger is one of the finest actresses in the world. We hope she never leaves the show. She is the heart and soul of the franchise.

Modern Lady: Can’t a Lady Cop Get Some Nuance?

By • Filed in: MediaLink

In last night’s Modern Lady on Informania (August 5), Erin talked about cliched female cops on TV and used Marg’s CSI character, Catherine Willows, as an example. It was quite hilarious. Thanks to @JorjaAllAround for the heads-up!

Erin Gibson is tired of seeing the same old female police officers on TV. Can’t a Modern Lady get some nuance in her lady cops? Erin checks out “Castle,” “CSI,” “Without a Trace,” “Law and Order: SVU,” “Cold Case,” and “In Plain Sight.”
