There's a new article in TV Guide about Elisabeth Shue's arrival. Here's what it says:

Elisabeth Shue admits she's always had a morbid streak. "I'm someone who can't pass up a good creepy story about a murder or some horrible thing. I viscerally live the drama," she says. "Is that weird?"

It's useful, actually. As CSI's replacement for Marg Helgenberger, who departed the cast last month after 12 years, the Oscar-nominated star of "Leaving Las Vegas" is suddenly up to her elbows in cadaver-y goodness.

Shue plays Julie Finlay, a blood-spatter specialist whose crime scene skills surpass her social ones. Tonight, D.B. Russell (Ted Danson) summons her for advice on a case involving the murder of a man's ex-girlfriend, but Finlay is reluctant. "D.B. likes her an awful lot," says Shue, "and we're toying with the idea that they had, let's just say, a history together before D.B. was married."

Julie is rattling the bones of the dead and the living. "We finished an episode where a family is fighting over a house...and it led to murder," says Shue. "Julie gets fed up and threatens to chop up their house with a chain saw."

Jumping onto a show a iconic as CSI made Shue "very nervous," she says. She's been raising three children in Los Angeles with her filmmaker husband, Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth), and "hadn't watched TV for years." But the opportunity was too good to pass up. Plus: death benefits. "There are so many corpses around." she laughs. "It's kinda cool."

LOL! I love it! Can't wait for that scene. But, it also makes me think of that episode of Miami where there was a divorcing couple and the wife was cutting up the hubby's boat with a chainsaw LOL.


And I hope the whole "Julie and DB might have had a past before he was married" thing does not end up being that they slept together because DB told Cath that his wife was the only one he'd ever slept with. Please, writers, I beg of of you, rewatch your previous episodes or reread your previous scripts. Don't contradict something you've already said.

Can't wait! :D:D

And I have to say no to DB/Julie history since that would mess up his backstory

ROTFL! That would be great!
 
As long as there's no affair type stuff....do NOT want the show turning into a soap opera.

That line would be hilarious though :D
 
Unless he mentions it as a joke: [insert your funny line Sharp, :guffaw:], I really hope not!

maybe it will end up meaning that Julie and D.B. just had a really strong relationship as previous co-workers and friends, like Grissom and Catherine did.

So I guess, the writers decided to drop the idea of D.B. firing Julie in the past and there being possible tension between them? That's what it seems like right now.
