CC Renewed For Seasons 8 & 9, New Lilly – April Fool

It has been announced that hit CBS TV show Cold Case has been renewed for 2 more seasons taking the show into 2012. Although not mentioned in the announcement options on a further 2 seasons are believed to be included.

However, Kathryn Morris has decided she wants step down as Detective Lilly Rush to concentrate on her movie career. Morris is hoping that the free time she has by not making 22 episodes of the TV drama will allow her to be involved in as many as two minor films roles per year.

Despite several past seasons of Cold Case ending with Lilly on the brink of death Lilly will not be killed off or written out. Instead, Veronica Mars star Kristen Bell will step into Lilly’s work-appropriate shoes.

Cold Case creator Meredith Stiehm said in a statement, “The team are so pleased that CBS has shown such faith in the show by renewing for two more seasons. It saddens us to announce Kathryn’s departure, we wish her well in all her future endeavours, she will be greatly missed as a colleague and a friend. However, the show will continue without her and we welcome the wonderful Kristen Bell to take on the role of Detective Lilly Rush. We will take this opportunity to send Lilly in a new direction. We expect Kristen’s involvement will lower our age demographic significantly, bringing in more of the iGeneration than ever before.”

“Congratulations to the everyone involved in Cold Case”, said Executive Producer Jerry Bruckheimer. “After a couple of difficult seasons the ratings for later half of season 7 proved what a powerhouse this show is. Record breaking numbers each week. CBS has promised to give us a new timeslot more in keeping with the success we’ve been having. 1am Saturday is the new 8pm Sunday.”

Twit T-who? Twittergate

KM_UK: Hoping to be proved wrong about @kathrynmorris1 – Link

It’s been over a week now since Asher Levin (director of Kathryn’s forthcoming movie, Mother’s Little Helpers) “Tweeted” that Kathryn had a Twitter account. It’s been 4 days since I posted the above Tweet (that still doesn’t sound right to me).

Unfortunately I’m left still hoping.

I’d like to explain the reasons behind my comment and few thoughts on the issue.

2009 Creative Arts Emmys Screencaps & Video

Was it really 6 months ago? It only seems like last week.

Even if only 7 days had gone by it would still be worth re-visting this event, if only for that award winning dress. KM UK Award winning that is

Kathryn sounds a little horse as she speaks. You know what it’s like: you get all these women together in their fancy frocks and shoes and they just can’t stop talking. It’s a wonder the ceremony started at all! Or maybe she was a bit under the weather She should be tucked up in bed… hang on… no, I spelt that right 😮

The smile, oh the smile, is still very much still in evidence

Anyway, 47 exclusive screencaps and a small video clip covering Kathryn’s presenting on the show have been added to the Creative Arts Emmy Awards 2009 gallery album. Enjoy.

Huge thanks to Lester for putting the effort in to getting this to me so I could share it with all of you.
