La Rue To Miss Multiple Episodes Of ‘Miami’
1 min readCSI: Miami‘s Eva La Rue (Natalia Boa Vista) will miss three episodes of the show this season. According to the actress’ Twitter account, the cuts were not made due to creative reasons, but unfortunately caused by budget issues. It is unknown how the character will be written out.
Back in August, a source close to La Rue issued a comment to CSI Files’ Shane Saunders about her future on the show after departure rumors began to circulate online:
She is NOT missing any episodes this season due to her involvement with AMC. They have been able to work her return to AMC into days that she has off at CSI:Miami. CSI:Miami has been very supportive and cooperative!
CSI Files is currently looking into the matter and will update this post when more information is available. As of this current moment La Rue is scheduled to appear in sixteen of the nineteen episodes ordered for this season.
Update:
10-15-11, 11:44AM
A statement has now been issued in regards to doing limited episodes:
She needed time off to do crest toothpaste events. Csi was very supportive.
That update is crap. Eva was disappointed that her episodes were cut and she stated that at least her family was happy with the downtime and she mentions the budget. Doesn’t sound as if Miami was really supportive.

im sorry what, Crest Toothpaste events, can that really be worth taking time off of CSI?
Yea, that update doesn’t sound right – she tweeted basically that her family was enjoying the time off and sounded somewhat disappointed by it according to her tweets – she didn’t mention anything about doing a Crest event? I mean, how does a Crest event trump CSI?? I could see if she was doing another TV show, but seriously? How lame is that? It seems weird to me that Natalia, a very popular character, keeps getting her screen time hacked into little pieces. If the cast is too big, then downsize it – get rid of Delko! He wanted to leave anyway, and I don’t think he brings much to the show. If it’s a budget thing, let the whole cast share the burden and have a couple of other characters miss an episode instead of one character missing 3 or more 🙁
