Last fall Jorja Fox left CSI, now it looks like Gary Dourdan is following suit. He will be leaving at the end of the current season. Reportedly Dourdan and CBS/Paramount came to a mutal decision not to renew his contract, and the door is still open for him to return as a guest star in future episodes of the show.

There are only four original episodes of the series left to air this season, and casting has begun on the season finale. It’s likely, but unconfirmed, that Dourdan will appear in all 4 of the remaining episodes for this season.
