| Scoop! Patinkin's Minds Successor Found? The search for Mandy Patinkin's replacement on Criminal Minds may be over. At CBS' press tour soiree this evening, Minds man Shemar Moore essentially confirmed what I've been hearing all day: Geena Davis has emerged as the front-runner to succeed Patinkin. Moore, who was in a very chatty mood, also name-dropped Michael Keaton as a possible successor, but sources tell me that he has officially passed. What else did Moore have to say? Loads. * On Patinkin's abrupt exit: "I don't like that he did this the way he did this. I don't. I don't think it's right. He left us hanging a little bit... No warning, no nothing. We all showed up to work Day One, and he didn't. And we've been scrambling. But we're going to be alright without him. I just feel like he needs to take responsibility for his actions… [and] just acknowledge us, because it's an ensemble, it's a team... We just want the courtesy and the respect that we deserve. And we felt like if he had given us that initially, this would be much easier to deal with. He essentially just slapped us in the face." * Did anyone see it coming? "We saw it coming in 1995 when he did it on Chicago Hope. Mandy's a volatile personality. He had his good days and he had his bad days. Sometimes the content of what we did would affect him more some days than others. Everybody thought he got the breath of fresh air he needed with the hiatus. I saw him in Monte Carlo about four, five weeks ago, and I said, 'I'll see you on [July] 9.' And he said, "Yep.'" * Any lessons to be learned from this? "I'm hoping Mandy learns a lesson from his actions. He did it once, OK. This one's going to sting a little bit. At least it SHOULD sting. Bottom line is, he didn't show up to work – with no warning. He didn't tell ANYBODY." * On his recent legal troubles: "My problem is I always liked fast cars. The mistake I made was I was driving too fast. As far as any alcohol-related charges, they were all dropped. The lesson that I learned was, I've got to slow down." * On those infamous nudie pics: "You mean of me FROLICKING on the beach? You know, the worst part of that whole thing for me was the FROLICKING, because, to me, it sounds like I was skipping or something like that. Look, I had no problems with [the photos]. What I have a problem with is they're making such an issue out of me being GAY. I'll say it right now: I'm not gay. Not even a little bit. I LOVE women. Women are God's greatest creation. But I have no problems with people who are gay. My God father was gay; he died of AIDS. I have dear friends that are gay. I'm very straight. The article said I got "caught." I didn't get caught. I willingly went to Hawaii. I willingly went to Maui, with two girlfriends of mine. I'm a single man. I had two girlfriends out there, and we wanted to go skinny dipping." * Was he, um, happy with those pics? "Lemme just say this: Thank God the water was fairly warm. That's all I'm going to say. It wasn't my best day. But it wasn't an awful day." Told ya he was chatty! |

I am sorry, but I LOVE Geena Davis!! Lol but I'm still sad to hear that Mandy is leaving. Has it been 100% confirmed? Sorry, I have been gone so did not get all the details!
Rach112 - July 24, 2007 09:01 PM (GMT)
He's definitely gone but I'm not sure whether he's coming back for one more episode...
Kyle - July 26, 2007 01:20 AM (GMT)
Well that sucks. First Elle, now Mandy.. This is not good for a new show!
Special Agent Jentzer - July 26, 2007 08:05 AM (GMT)
I like Geena Davis.....just not sure I would like Senior Supervisory Special Agent Candice DeLong.....(lol)
"their's no crying in baseball"
I've seen the name "Ed Harris"......being written?
"still don't think so!!'
He could compete with Morgan for title of "gadget man"

Mr. Bernero sent a third statement to the blog saying the replacement will not be Ms. Davis. I will post it when they hire someone. I hope and am sure that they will make a great choice.

Thanks for that...I admit I'm pleased she won't be Gideon's replacement :lol:
ac5000 - July 31, 2007 09:56 PM (GMT)
thank goodness...as much as i like her as an actress, i refuse to see her as an agent.
I love this show! - August 7, 2007 01:46 AM (GMT)
I kind of like the idea of Ed Harris (isn't he married to Amy Madigan? a.k.a. "Jane?")
Anyway.....I think he's a really good character actor - even if it isn't him I hope Gideon's replacement will be someone kind of like him.

considering it was TV guide that first reported that "Thelma" was the front runner to replace "Gideon", I thought this article was rather funny......can anyone take a guess at the botton riddle??
Batman and Thelma OUT...whos left??? (read full TV guide article here!)

| Thelma, Batman Not Criminal-Minded: Who's Left to Replace Mandy? by Michael Desmond/Touchstone Television "It's official. Doris Roberts and I are the only two remaining showbiz "names" that haven't been approached about replacing Mandy Patinkin on Criminal Minds. Early on, you'll recall, Oscar winner Geena Davis was considered to be the front-runner to get the job. But she took a pass, according to my spy, because she wasn't keen on "the nature of the show." (Funny — she didn't seem to have a problem with "the nature" of the Geena Davis Show, and that was god-awful.) Michael Keaton nixed the gig, too, presumably because he wasn't ready to do TV full-time. And they're just the tip of the iceberg. To give you some idea of just how wide a net the show's producers are casting, I've listed some celebs that are under consideration below, with a few key letters asterisked out to protect their anonymity. Of course, if Shemar Moore wants to blab their identities, too, who am I to shush him? Among the stars who've been approached and took a pass: **b ***k*n* J*** **t**ow Si****ne* **av*r Among the new leading candidates are: *a**** ****** ****** *****e So, guesses? The first three are so obvious, they're a gimme. But the last two... Yep, I'd wager to say you have as big a challenge on your hands as Minds' producers do. Good luck!" |
so detectives.....yes any guesses???
Sigourney Weaver is all I could come up with....

You got me! :huh:
I really don't think they need to bring in a big name celebrity.....I hope they aren't so determined to do that they choose someone who really isn't right. Know what I mean?
Come on Shemar....talk! :lol: This is a subject I'd like to hear him talk a little too much about.

| Criminal Minds in search to replace Patinkin By Katie Button ""After failing to turn up for work, Mandy Patinkin unceremoniously left Criminal Minds. Yes, his character Jason Gideon was grumpy, but dammit he got results and now his team is left minus their inspirational leader. This unexpected exit has left casting agents for the show scratching their heads, (not because they have nits and should douse themselves in icky anti-lice potions) as they look to attract a new star to fill Patinkin’s boots. The first front-runner was Oscar-winner Geena Davis, who now that Commander in Chief is sadly no more, is currently without a regular acting gig. She passed on the offer, apparently not keen on “the nature of the show.” Michael Keaton is also said to have refused the role, but he and Geena are far from alone. Other big names rumoured to have turned it down include Bob Hoskins (another move to attract Brit talent to American TV roles), 3rd Rock From The Sun’s John Lithgow and supreme alien ass-kicker Sigourney Weaver. I suspect that some of these are still enjoying too much success on the silver screen to make the transition to TV yet, but with every name in Hollywood in the mix – who would you like to see star in the show? You never know, your wish might come true. After fans expressed their support online for ex-Veronica Mars actress Kristen Bell as one of the new stars of Lost, talk is that she might soon be hanging out with Jack, Sawyer and co. So make your voice heard and tell everyone what you think"" |

I'm glad it's not John Lithgow.....he is not one of my favorite actors! I would have been very disappointed if I had heard he was even in the running! <_<
