Blind Item: Hot Show's Stars Feel a Big Chill

Tags:

Ausielloblinditem_lEverybody have a tissue handy? If not, grab one, ’cause it’s time for another blind item, and this one’s so juicy you should already be drooling.

It seems the star of a certain hit series has, to quote my mole, “a lot of rules” about the conditions under which he will work. None of his castmates like this — it’s diva antics, of course — but only the show’s female lead has the clout to say she won’t put up with it. As a result, the two have gone from acting in few scenes together to acting in none whatsoever. (In fact, despite a story arc that would have made it nearly impossible for their characters to logically avoid one another, so far this season, they haven’t crossed paths once.)

So, guesses as to the identities of the Mr. Big whose Method is so maddening and the one costar with the stones to rock the boat? I’ll give you one more hint, then you’re on your own: The show has, I hear, “already lost one actress” at least in part due to conflicts over Mr. Man and his master thespian baggage. Your turn. Who are the players in this frosty backstage drama? (Additional reporting by Andy Patrick)

    David Caruso and Emily Proctor?

  • rich wilkinson

    i’d guess csi miami’s david caruso.

  • Thom

    CSI: Miami – Emily Proctor and David Caruso…he got rid of Kim Delaney, then the medical examiner left, who’s name escapes me but it starts with a K. He didn’t last on NYPD Blue…Diva Big Time

  • David Stumme

    Maybe CSI: NY? I’m not sure how often Sinise and Kanakaredes have acted together this year, and they lost the one actress after season 1. That seems like a long time though between then and now.

  • Carrie

    @David: can’t be CSI:NY. Gary Sinise and Melina Kanakaredes had a scene together in the season 5-premiere and at least one since then.
    I would guess David Caruso too, but honestly.. I have no glue ^^

  • Joshua

    Maybe Matthew Fox from Lost

  • Rachel K

    I’m going to guess Mark Harmon … ? I really hope not, cuz I like him as an actor and he doesn’t seem like the type to be a diva but …. there is that whole pesky Kate dying thing in the back of my mind. Please, someone tell me I’m wrong!!

  • emteem

    I know that some woman asked Ausiello to look into why Caruso and Proctor share so few scenes together in an Ask Ausiello at TV Guide like a year ago and he said he hadn’t really noticed, but would look into it or something along those lines… so if it’s them I hope he e-mailed her a link to this article.

  • wildfyre

    My guess would be CSI:Miami’s David Caruso, as well. I can see Emily P. standing up to him.

  • ecsmac

    its caruso and proctor.. Somebody tipped Mike in a column months ago back about this. I wonder what took him so long. to use it. Its really obvious on the show once you start looking for it.

  • Fish

    If you aren’t going to provide the answer, you shouldn’t ask the question.

  • emteem

    @Rachel – You’re wrong!
    Also, you’re welcome. It’s not NCIS because both of the women on the show share multiple scenes with Gibbs per episode this blind item says the star in question and the female lead haven’t crossed paths on camera yet this season.
