Jorja Fox Talks About Liev Schreiber

Actress Jorja Fox (Sara Siddle) of CSI recently discussed her take on Liev Schreibers role on the show, her website Saras romance with Grissom.
I think Liev Schreiber, who is one of my favorite actors, really has the hardest job in TV in the last 20 years. Not only does he have to come in and fill the space that Billy Petersen is usually in, but hes got one show to grab everybody. And if he cant do that, its a distinct possibility that viewers will change the channel for the next several weeks. The stories are set up to wrap around his character he almost becomes the protagonist of the show so I think there is a danger there, Fox shares. She explained how hard it must have been for him to come into an established show where everyone communicates with their own language because theyve been working together for so long. But for us, she praises, he came in with so much passion and enthusiasm, and so much excitement, he was contagious to be around.
The actress maintains a website filled with her opinions on a number of issues PETA, clean air, human rights and hurricane relief. She doesnt use the site as a traditional fansite because she has wonderful people who run sites like that about her. Rather, she uses it as a platform to discuss her opinions. Right now the site covers the Gulf states heavily because she grew up in Florida. Fox would like to update her site weekly, but doesnt have the time.
Fans of the Grissom / Sara romance neednt despair in the wake of Grissoms absence. I think of Gil and Sara as a tango. Its slow, and has a tremendous amount of endurance. You havent seen the end of Sara and Gil by any means. The idea is to let the dust settle a bit, but were gearing up for some stuff at the end of the season that I hope the fans like. We could fall flat on our faces, but the writers are willing to take the risks, says Fox.
