Adam Is Here To Stay

CSI: New York's AJ Buckley has taken the leap from guest star to main character.

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Buckley, who plays the lab tech Adam Ross on New York, will be a full-time cast member starting in season four. The character first appeared in the second season of the show and has been a common sight in the lab since then. Overall, Buckley has appeared in twenty episodes so far.

When co-executive producer Peter Lenkov spoke with CSI Files' Kristine Huntley earlier this month, he told her that the fans would be seeing a lot more of Adam this season. "I think the idea is to make him a regular the same way Sid (Robert Joy) is in every episode, but make Adam a little bit more of a presence, our lab guy, our go-to guy. We adore him. It's really fun to write for him because he really has a voice."

Buckley did an interview with Huntley back in February, and he mentioned that a guest star can never guarantee that they'll appear in any given episode during the season. "You never know with recurring characters and I go into each episode thinking it could be my last," he said. He also talked about Adam as a character. "I know the writers have really responded," he said. "I dig this character; I do have a lot of fun with it and I enjoy seeing what they come up with for me to do." Now that Buckley has been signed on full-time, there is sure to be a lot more in store for Adam on CSI: NY.
