Okay, I'm no great fan of Sara Sidle but she still doesn't deserve to be fired for asking for a raise as any person would when they work as hard as Jorja and George do. CBS REINSTATE THEM NOW AND GIVE THEM THE RAISE TOO OR ELSE I WILL NOT WATCH CSI AGAIN!
they can't leave! that's killing the show!!! it'll never be the same without them..
And you know what they say: Never Change A Winning Team!!!! and that defenately goes for CSI!!
Grissom: I don't know what to do about this.
Les: I do. (turns to JF and GE) Jorja, George, you're fired. Pack your stuff and go. (Turns) You know, by the time you figured it out, it really could be too late.
Grissom: Speak for yourself.
I think it's a shame that the people who have made millions of dollars for CBS/Alliance Atlantis are used as garbage like this. If this continues CSI is as good as dead...
I can't belive that these 2 actors are no longer going to be on CSI. Oh all the people there to get rid of they picked the wrong 2.
CSI just lost a viewer.

Please don't fire George and Jorja for asking for the money that they deserve as actors and people. George was the reason that I started watching CSI and Jorja has quickly become one of my favorites.
When Jorja and George signed their contracts nearly five years ago, it was done not knowing how successful CSI was going to be. After four years working tirelessly on this show, they deserve a pay increase, and were within their right to ask for a meaningful raise. To fire them is an insult to the viewers who tune in every week to see the stories through the eyes of characters they love. CSI is William Petersen, Marg Helgenberger, Gary Dourdan, George Eads, and Jorja Fox. Without Jorja and George, it ceases the show it once was, and I for one won't be watching.
No Jorja, No George, No CSI for me anymore. It would be fair to say that when you offer them more airtime like Marg and William, they would get the same ammount of money. I support Jorja and George and will not continue to watch CSI if they don't come back!
I can't believe it...I was reading they were making $100,000 an episode!! thats alot to me, but to be on the #1 show and the main star, THAT IS NOT ENOUGH. I will not watch CSI anymore!!
I was a devoted fan of CSI, and regardless of the reason for firing George and Jorja, it destroys the show. Writing the characters out or replacing them with other actors is unacceptable. I will no longer watch CSI.
Removing Jorja and George would, I believe tremendously injure the show as a whole. CSI has a huge fan base and I think that has a lot to do with how well these actors work together and the on-screen chemistry between them. I think if you remove Jorja and George, that will throw everything off and the show will only go downhill.
I will boycott CSI and all CSI productions if they are not reinstated. I will pass on to everyone I know to do the same. This is an utter outrage. They are only on the #1 show in the country cut them a little slack. They only want what's fair.
Instead of giving all the money the William Peterson and Marg share the wealth! Without Jorja and George this show will die. I am not going to watch unless they bring them back! take that CBS.
CBS has already butchered far too many great shows without doing the same to CSI. Firing Jorja Fox and George Eads would not only be destroying the character of the show by taking away two important lead roles, it would be depriving the cast of a great deal of talent.
The show will not work without all the cast members. One of the things I liked most about CSI is how for 4 seasons the cast has been the same. Truly a shame to fire these two. Please reconsider.
Being the top rated show, CSI should work to keep the cast as is and take care of the original series before beginning spinoffs (such as the overplayed New York scene). After four (well, really three due to little screen time) seasons of charater development you can't just off two main actors and expect to keep the fan base.
I never saw that one coming but i can say that all the CSI's are bringing very good revenue so CBS should give them a raise and another thing the csi vegas team is formed its a winning formula you cant break it down that easily I WANT THEM BACK!!!
This is twisted. They are not irreplacable and are the reasons the producers are rich. They are just as important as the other characters. Without them CSI is nothing. Everyone who feels this way should email CBS, Moonves or whoever you can. Stop this
I cannot imagine the show without Nick and Sara. This is just impossible. They bring things to the team that the others don't. Together, they're one. Nick and Sara are essential. Bring them back!
When someone told me that Jorja Fox and George Eads had been fired I couldn't believe it. I’ve been a huge fan of CSI since the first season and one of the main reasons has been Jorja Fox and how she portrays Sara Sidle, how she brings that character to life. Can she be replaced? Most definitely not. None of the main characters can be replaced, because they are the show. The success of the show is based on the interactions between the characters and with two gone, the show will lose its magical formula and will never be the same again. I'm afraid that because of this decision CSI (and therefor CBS) will lose a lot of viewers, from all over the world. I’m a Dutch viewer and if this news is really true, I will be one of them. I hope it won’t come to that.
I'm going to stop watching CSI if Jorja Fox and George Eads don't come back. CSI is my favorite show, but it won't BE CSI anymore without them! Get rid of CSI:Miami instead...do us all a favor.
I support jorja and george however if you are going to screw up your only worthwhile show i will just tune out and forget about buying the dvd box set keep csi on the air in its entirety dont hack up the show dont screw up a good thing we buy your products and your sponsers pruducts because we enjoy the show and its cast give them more of my money
SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!SEND THEM BACK!!!!!!
The actors/producers/writers create the show but it's viewers like us that make the show a success. Mr. Moonves you have gone too far. I will not be watching CSI if the original cast is not reinstated.
I've been watching since the start of CSI, but I will have no problem never watching again if these two actors are gone. Too bad, this was my favorite show.
Damn them all! Why would they ever take away Sara?! I never liked Nick but his stupidity gave me a laugh every now and then. What's going to happen without Sara?
George and Jorja are a big part of the show. If you let them go then the ratings are going down with them. Why, CBS, do you feel the need to spend millions on spin-offs but yet don't feel the need to spend money on the actors who made the original great? I just hope that you'll grow a brain and bring them back before this blows up in your face.
I just heard from Dorcy that Sara and Nick ... are fired! No way. Sara and Grissom are "close", you know what I mean. He gave her a entomology textbook last Christmas. Since when did Grissom ever give anybody a Christmas gift? As for Nick? I know he is ambitious, but I have no idea who he pissed off this time. He is a good guy, I will miss him.
What is going on? Is this real. The show will suck without these 2. They are part of the team! Something has to be worked out. They helped make the show popular.
I will quit watching if these 2 are off. I have no regrets
Jorja Fox and George Eads are a big part of the show and it wouldn't be the same if they left. All the characters together make up the show. If they do leave, I'll be one of the ones boycotting CBS. CSI is my favorite -I don't watch much TV, but I always made sure I was home on Thursday night to watch CSI!
The only CSI show I enjoyed now I will have to stop watching because of the firing of these 2 wonderful actors.Why not try to get rid Of CSI Miami completely I can't stand that show
