After an impressive nine-year run as the star of "CSI," William Petersen is leaving the small screen behind and returning to the stage.
Because of the rampant success of "CSI," Petersen has decided to leave the show because he was concerned about becoming too comfortable in his career.
Since its debut in 2000, "CSI" has become one of the most popular shows in the world, spawning two spin-off series and countless imitators. At the centre of it all was Petersen's Golden Globe nominated performance as the iconic Gil Grissom, with a wry one-liner and a fascination with insects.
Since the taping of his last episode, Petersen has traded in millions of viewers, for small, intimate audiences of 300 as he returned to his roots as a theatre actor in Chicago.
But fans shouldn't fret; Petersen's on-stage roles won't keep him completely away from "CSI," as the actor plans on remaining a producer on the show and will occasionally make guest appearances in the future.
nuff said. i'll be here sulking and weeping if you need me. aww. the show's not falling apart, it's still nice. it's just not the same. that's all. i mean, warrick died and it still went on. besides we've been talking about grissom going away for quite a long time now. but still.. sigh.
