Isn’t that how David Carruso’s Horatio Caine would put it?

Apparently Eddie Cibrian, who joined the cast of CSI: Miami last year has been let go, with his contract not being picked up for another season.

Interesting.

Since the show’s target market is pretty much made up of the Soccer Mom Brigade  was all the drama between Eddie, Leann Rimes, and their respective ex’s, Brandi Glanville (who’s turned bitching about being dumped for Leann Rimes into a cottage industry) and Dean Sheremet the cause?

The Soccor Mom Brigade gets nervous (almost angry) when they hear about a man leaving his wife for another woman.  It’s the reason Angelina Jolie can’t seem to crack that demographic and (to a certain extent) why Jennifer Aniston still has a career.

But I digress.  Moving on.

Eddie and Leann started to have an affair when they met on the set of some cheesy Lifetimemovie a couple of years back.   A picture got leaked of the two kissing at a restaurant forcing them to come clean about their relationship, dumping their spouses for each other in the process.  Crappy, but it happens.  Brandi however, could not seem to let it go.  Besides attacking Eddie and Leann in the media, she was vandalizing property and things  got so bad that Leann got a restraining order placed against her.  (Bitch is clearly not the most stable of people)

So did CBS get rid of an albatross hung around the neck of one of it’s flagship procedural dramas, or is the timing of this completely coincidental and Eddie was let go for budget/storyline purposes?
