Maggie ITA with your points, they are all totally valid. Now I think if this rumor is true that he is leaving at the end of this season we should know something more concrete by now, because from the looks of the spoiler thread (which I do not read) they are up to ep 20? So that only leaves a couple for him to leave in which I don't think is possible unless they suddenly kill him off, and I don't think TPTB are that stupid, that would spell the end of ER it would spin down so fast. ER is already in trouble and not preforming well, Luby, Maura and Goran are the reasons I watch and without them I don't think I could stand to watch a show I once loved and still adore slip further. I think if he is going to leave it will more likely be in the new season, maybe a few episodes in...that makes more sence at this point. And inline with the whole filming in Croatia in May. I hope to god he stays the last year otherwise they should end it now, ER without Goran and Luby will be nothing. Maura is brilliant and I will always watch simply for her prowess as an actor but I doubt I will enjoy the stories of the show, which makes me sad. Gosh this is depressing me...I am going to listen to the new Tori songs to cheer me up

My only point of confusion is this: While working for the past 12+ years in television roles, Maura has still managed to complete a number of prominent films, often as a lead or supporting role. She clearly is able to handle it, so what's all this fuss about Goran not having time to pursue other work? Maura manages, and she and Billy got along fine as far as we could tell up until very recently. So what gives? There are plenty of opportunities out there, as she's proven. I love Goran, I do, but it seems as if this is coming just after he was turned down for the role of Bond...is it possible the murmers about leaving were some way of justifying his lack of film success? I'm not dissing on Goran. But there's something not right about the idea that he'd leave to pursue film. And, really, why not wait until he has a movie contract signed before leaving? I don't know if his projects are only because of his carrer... maybe there's a personal things... he has two projects in Croatia ( that at least I knw off )... maybe he wants to come home... I don't know... And to raise a family... I think he wants to be a present father and not one that has to works every day... We can't know whats up on his head... but I agree... if he's leaving, why wait so much to tell us ? Dani

It is true Goran has quit it was yesterday's paper!!!! Sweety don't get me wrong but United Kingdom is my last source of information. Since most of England's paper are known for jumping out of proportion on things! I would honestly surprised if they didn't write anything like that!! I know the news you're refering to I got the paper. And love, in the words of Simon Cowell, THis is a complete waste of time and energy! Oh, yeah and so RUBISH!!

Tara, Lubbybaby and Allie, you cheer me up! Don't you think that all these feverish talks ( and I'm the first one to read GREEDILY everything about Goran or Maura leaving! ) are to keep us interested, poor morons as we are , during this SO LONG BREAK!!!! The Sun and The Star ? I'm feeling better, right now, ( before falling into depression in a couple of hours with some breaking news! )

Personally, I think this sudden media frenzy/leak over Goran's contract makes me suspect that this is a negotiation ploy on his part. How else does an actor get a better deal, than by showing his employers that the fan public gets in a frenzy at the mention of him leaving? If he hasn't come out with an official statement yet, he's using the media attention as a bargaining chip during contract talks. That's my take on this, so I'm still optimistically holding my breath!

Just a reminder can we please be really careful about specific episode spoilers, I don't read spoilers and want to be surprised about upcoming episodes! I know this thread crosses the line in some ways but this is only about casting not about story plots! Nina you might want to edit your post so others who don't want to know about things are not spoiled - thanks

My personal opinion - if he leaves, then she should as well ... I mean the whole Luby storyline has been going on since season 7, and man, I loved Season 12 and 13 so far, they had great moments, stories, ... and IF there'll be a wedding in croatia, then it's the perfect ending ... I dont see even more exiting and better stories for them really ... I am inclined to agree. I think they have reached the end for them. No new storylines could occur for them except for the big break up if it were to happen. I mean, yeah it'll be sad and stuff if he leaves but if he wants to then no amount of complaining is going to stop him. I think it would be better for Maura to leave too. I don't wanna see another "single mother" storyline. They get repetive and very tired easily.

Well, even if he leaves and she stays, it wouldn't necessarially spell the end for Luby. It could simply be that he gets a job elsewhere or goes to Croatia temporarially. It's also possible that they'll film episodes before his contract expires, so we'll have him for some of next season. Either way, he's a nummie to leave (my invented word). I still don't get it when his status as a sex symbol is on the rise as a result of his publicity from ER...

If he leaves and Maura doesn't, they'll either cancel for next season at the last minute before filming (like they did for Dr Quinn, when Joe Lando wanted to leave)... OR they will kill him off. The 8 years of "lets get married/i dont want to/lets break up/i love you" blah blah blah.. only to be followed by a wedding.. and then a divorce when GV wants off and Maura doesn't? If Maura Tierney signs for next year, and Goran Visnjic doesn't-- we're looking at Luka death or last-minute cancellation.. and I'm not sure which is worse.
I think the first. If Luka leaves, I may not even watch anymore.

Abby maybe in the US untill her visa doesn't get out and after going to meet him ( it's a possibility ) with Joe... come on, don't be so negative... Dani
