Just read about this on E! news, and, to be blunt, I couldn't care less that Eddie's leaving the show. I've never been a fan of Cibrian's "acting" skills. I'm the furthest thing from an E/C shipper that you'll ever find (I'm against romances on crime shows in general), but I like Eric as an individual character (and Calleigh also), and I'd take him over one-note Jesse any day. CSI Miami turned into the "Jesse & Walter" show at the beginning of the eighth season, and having Jesse in particular shoved down my throat completely turned me off. Thank goodness next season the focus will be back on the core cast-members like Horatio (who was severely neglected in season 8, in my opinion), Ryan, Frank and Natalia.
