CSI is getting ready to celebrate a major milestone, with a little help from former leading lady Marg Helgenberger.
TVLine has learned exclusively that the fan fave — who departed the series midway through Season 12 — will reprise her role as Catherine Willows in the CBS procedural’s landmark 300th episode. READ MORE
Josh Holloway grew up with three brothers acting out James Bond and Mission Impossible fantasies, so it’s not a big surprise that he chose CBS’ Intelligence — in which he plays an agent enhanced with a microchip that allows him to access the entire electromagnetic spectrum — as his first major TV role after six seasons on Lost.

Question: Will Alex be forgiven for what he did to Meredith in the Grey’s Anatomy finale? —Dawud
Ausiello: As Justin Chambers sees it, that’s one wound that will not be easily healed. “What he did was wrong,” he tells me. “It was really uncool. There’s nothing worse than a rat fink.” Ironically, the Jesus Juice he was under the influence of may prove to be his savior. READ MORE
