Patinkin's new show

A quick note I thought you might be interested in here. Mandy Patinkin looks like he has a new vehicle, he'll be in a Showtime show about the CIA and terrorism. (I knew Gideon was a spy!)


Since CBS owns Showtime, and Patinkin guest starred on Three Rivers last year, and he'll be guest starring in some other crime drama later this month- and given the fact Mandy Patinkin and CBS are notorious for kissing-and-making-up what do you think the chances of Gideon guest starring if even in the spin-off?

Also, is it just me or does anyone start humming "Love the Way You Lie" in their head when they read about Patinkin and television shows? Who's Eminem and who's Rhianna you think?

So he leaves one crime show due to 'too much violence on tv' if I remember right, and joins onto another? If he was signing onto a humor show, or something educational, or WHATEVER it wouldn't be so strange, but from the summary it sounds like another drama.

That said, there's a lot of potential if he would come back to CM for an episode or two, especially if he came back as an unsub. That'd be sweet. However, I'm not at all expecting anything like that to happen.

Yea that part made me do a double take but he also cameo-ed in a very violent British movie last year where he played a music teacher so I'll reserve judgment on it until I see it.

Same with the second sentiment- I can see his character rebelling against what he once stood for which could prove interesting.
