William Peterson the actor who plays the iconic character, Gil Grissom is leaving the longtime hit TV show “CSI”. He had played in the show since it’s debut episode way back in the year 2000 when the show first started. The show is still going strong for 8 seasons. Peterson says he wants to move on to try other things in his acting career. This isn’t the first time that CSI lost cast members, not too long ago, the show lost Gary Dourdan and Jorja Fox. Peterson will still work for the show, however, he won’t act much, he’ll remain as executive producer. He’ll only appear in a few episodes occasionally.

My thoughts?
Simply put, good for him! He’s an excellent actor. It’s about time for him to move on and hopefully do some hollywood movies in leading roles. Maybe that’s why he wants to leave, he wants to get movie roles. I hope he does play a leading role in a film sometime down the road.
