I think you're right which would be sad. I can't figure out why there needs to be one character arc season when other shows have done great with multiple story arcs for all their characters (ER). I guess it's all got to do with Carol M.'s old school way of writing shows. Sad, but true.but seriously, i think most of the surprises are going to pertain Catherine and i think it's going to be her season. she hasn't gotten a major storyline in a while and since, imo, Cath is soon to leave, the writers are going to make up a creative way to write her off. something different than a burnout, cuz we already got one from Grissom and Sara. something different than killing her off cuz we got that from Warrick. and something different than CSI!InDanger cuz we got that in 4 season finales in a row.
another surprise might be the return of Grissom and Sara too, of course
I hope Marg doesn't leave this season, but she seemed so sad last year and out sorts in her role and it was hard to tell if it had to do with her personal issues (divorce) or the events of the character(Losing three friends in a year)
Wasn't David Berman made a full time cast member last season? And I don't think Catherine will die in peril-it will be most likely she'll move on to continue her dad's work.
Wendy becoming a CSI, yep I see that. Maybe Mandy will move into DNA and then we'd get more 'Manic" scenes (Nick and Mandy) which would be awesome!
To be honest, from what I read from one writer, I don't think Sara or Grissom will be back this season. I'd rather they not return.
