A Sad Moment As We Lose A Longtime CSI Star
14 January 2009
Warning: Spoilers
It's always sad when a long-standing member of a cast of any popular show leaves. In this case, it's "Sara Sidle" of "CSI." We know it's only make-believe, only a fictional television show, but you see a person on a weekly basis for half a year for almost eight years, it's almost a part of your life, or least a routine. So, it's with regret that Jorja Fox will no longer be seen on this show, at least at this point. Whatever caused her to leave is her business, but she'll be greatly missed.

Like the other reviewers here, I always found 'Sara' to be one of the more interesting characters on this show. Personally, my favorites are George Eads ("Nick") and Jorja. Ironically, both of them were fired about five years ago after both actors demanded more money. The problem was quickly worked out with CBS and they have been regulars, happily, for all the CSI years.....until now.

One thing that I was thinking - and that another reviewer pointed out - while watching this was, "why is this woman allowed to be working, right after nearly being killed?" Then, she's given the green light to work on assignment that's obviously too much for her to handle at this time - some genius little girl who excels in mind games and has a history with "Sidle." No, it doesn't make sense.....but this last case was the straw that broke the camel's back, as the saying goes.....and Sara rides off somewhere in the distance, leaving behind a stunned fiancé/boss.

In real life,a woman who truly loved her man might quit the CSI job, but she wouldn't leave him.

As for this particular crime case, it's nothing super but the acting of the brother-sister combination was good: Douglas Smith as "Marlon" and Juliette Goglia as his sister "Hannah."
