Marg Helgenberger To Do Only A Few Episodes Of "CSI" Next Season

 It is no secret that Marg Helgenberger who plays Catherine Willows on CSI was looking forward to leaving the show and moving on to something else. However, fans of the crime series can rejoice as she is still willing to return in some capacity for the 2011/2012 season.

 The actress, who was been on the show for 11 years since its premiere in 2000, has told People: “We’re talking maybe [only] doing a few episodes. The older you get, the more comfortable you become with who you are and who you are continuing to become. I’m looking forward to the next chapter.”

 And what would that next chapter be? Apparently Helgenberger is interested in returning to theater. Her deal with the show has yet to be finalized so it is still unclear the number of episodes she´ll be in next season.

Are you sad to see Marg leaving her series regular status on CSI?
