Who Ya Gonna Call...GhostBusters 3

In a conversation with MTV news Harold Ramis has confirmed a new Ghostbusters movie is in the works. The Original cast is expected to reprise their roles with their characters becoming "sage mentors" to new a new team, in a passing of the proton packs to a new generation of Ghostbusters.
Though the first draft of the script is apparently still in the works, Judd Apatow is signed on as at least a producer so thus far the casting rumors have been hovering around members of the "Apatowverse" Paul Rudd and Seth Rogen being tapped to take up the fight.
Taking into consideration the track records of the parties involved, I believe this will be a worthy sequel/reboot of the franchise and I'm actually enthused about this project coming together.
What do you think?

CSI Change-up

William Petersen, who has played CSI Gil Grissom since the shows start in 2000, is joining co-star Gary Dourdan and stepping down from the show. He plans on stepping down about halfway through the season but not for good. Petersen says he plans on making guest spots on the show as long as it works for the show and the audience. In the meantime, Laurence Fishburne and John Malkovich are the two front-runners to replace Petersen and if anyone can replace Petersen's "Grissom", Fishburne and Malkovich are the ones to do it.
