William Petersen got his wish, he will be out of CSI as a series regular after this season's 10th episode according to
Michael Ausiello.
"Billy is leaving," confirms the show's executive producer, Carol Mendelsohn. "But he will remain throughout the run of the series an executive producer. And he will, whenever CBS asks, come back. I don't think you've seen the last of Gil Grissom."
If I was still watching this show, I would care more. But since it is the #1 scripted show in The States I figured one or two of you might care.
