It seems like we have new casting news and/or rumors about Law and Order: Criminal Intent every week or so. Here's the latest.Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio has been cast as the new captain on the show. She replaces Eric Bogosian who has left after a few seasons on the USA Network show. She'll join another new cast member, Saffron Burrows, who replaces Julianne Nicholson, who decided not to come back to the show after having a baby.
This is a good casting choice I think. If only because it's a woman. After a string of male captains it might be cool to have a female as the person in charge.
If you're wondering about Vincent D'Onofrio and Kathryn Erbe, they're gone from the show too. Jeff Goldblum is now the new lead actor on the show. Of course, I don't think he's been nailed down yet either so this news could change next week. Stay tuned.

I don't necessarily mind the revolving door of cast members on this show, I just wish they would make a bit of an effort to create some real closure for the characters, especially in the case of Goren and Eames, who were there from the beginning.
Having a line or two of tossed-off dialogue to explain the departure of two long-standing characters seems disrespectful, but that's how these things typically get handled in L&O world.
