Laurence Fishburne, Heavy Weight Replacement For CSI Gil Grissom's William Petersen


CSI is not taking any chances what with the lost of William Petersen I don't think the award-winning series would like to see their esteemed sitcom come to an abrupt end as their leading forensic expert leaves the show.

CSI has added Laurence Fishburne to fill in the gap that William Petersen will no doubt leave behind as the great Gil Grissom. I often watched the show because of him.

Nevertheless I think CSI has made a good move casting in heavy weight actor Laurence Fishburne. A television series this great cannot afford anything less. It has to be a major star or they are dead.

To be honest it won't be the same without Gil Grissom but you have to admit, it does get you quite interested how Laurence Fishburne will play himself into this long-standing game. The new-comer is definitely no novice and will most definitely make his mark here too.

Unlike the rest of the crew though who became famous because of the show not prior to it, Laurence Fishburne will be lending a lot of star-power this time around after the loss of such an integral part of the team.
