Television News
Thomas Gibson Fired From ‘Criminal Minds’
According to Entertainment Tonight and other news sources, Thomas Gibson, who was recently suspended for kicking a writer on the set of Criminal Minds, has been fired from the CBS drama. The producers of the long-running series on CBS announced Friday that the 54-year-old actor, who’s played Aaron Hotchner on the drama since it launched in 2005, will not return to the show when it returns for its 12th season on Sept. 28. “Thomas Gibson has been dismissed from Criminal Minds,” according to a statement from ABC Studios and CBS Studios. “Creative details for how the character’s exit will be addressed in the show will be announced at a later date.”
News of the altercation, which was confirmed by Gibson’s spokeswoman, broke earlier this week. A source close to Gibson said the actor “instinctively” booted a writer in the shin after an argument over the show’s creative direction escalated. Gibson’s spokeswoman released this statement on behalf of the actor: “There were creative differences on the set and a disagreement. I regret that it occurred. We all want to work together as a team to make the best show possible. We always have and we always will.”
The decision to oust Gibson comes at time when Criminal Minds is attempting to chart a new course now that Shemar Moore has left the show. In the spring, Moore announced he was leaving the drama that plucked him from a CBS soap opera and turned him into an international star. Since he’s active on social media, he refers to his female fans as “baby girls”, there is a predictable amount of concern that the Criminal Minds ratings could take a hit. At the end of season 11, Criminal Minds was TV’s 17th most popular show among viewers (12.31 million) and was CBS’s seventh most-watched show.

Amy Smart, Alfred Molina and Tom Everett Scott also star along with Kathy Baker and introduces Kaia Gerber.
The project comes from director-producer Sean Hanish and the same team that produced the Emmy-nominated ‘Return to Zero‘, which aired on Lifetime in 2014. “Our goal with ‘Sister Cities’ has always been to get the film in front of as many people as possible, and Lifetime has proved to be the preeminent network to reach viewers who love films with strong female characters and performances,” said director-producer Sean Hanish. “After the overwhelming success of ‘Return to Zero’ on Lifetime, we’re thrilled to partner with the `Fempire’ a second time with ‘Sister Cities.’ ”
Colette Freedman wrote the script, which was based on her play. “Sister Cities” hails from Hanish’s Cannonball Productions and was produced by Hanish, Paul Jaconi-Biery and Eleonore Dailly. Kelly Kahl and Molina are executive producers.
