CASE AND TRACE MAY GO

CBS may be considering dropping two of its most successful "procedural" shows, Without a Trace and Cold Case , because they cost too much to produce, Entertainment Weekly columnist Michael Ausiello reported Wednesday, citing multiple sources. Ausiello said that producers of the show are being asked to trim costs, including convincing cast members to take pay cuts. However, he said, even if new salary figures can be negotiated, the shows may still not be picked up for another season. CBS and Warner Bros. TV, which produce the shows, declined to comment.
