CBS has axed two regulars on its top-ranked drama, "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," following a salary dispute.
Actors George Eads and Jorja Fox, who play investigators Nick Stokes and Sara Sidle, were fired earlier this week, just as shooting resumed for new episodes, according to a source close to the production. Both actors were reportedly in the fifth year of a seven-year contract. The firings came after their representatives engaged in contentious negotiations for salary hikes, according to another source.
