Keeping the regulars of the series can be a difficult task for popular television programs, because the shape of a show can change from year and season in season. “Elsbeth” was a success for CBS and one of the few new programs in the network to obtain full support for the biggest company, unlike other unlucky television detectives, after a first dynamite entry on the broadcast television. But, season 2 had a big surprise in store when the officer of the Nypd of Carra Patterson, Kaya Blanke, moved away from the regular functions of the series on the show. Now, it’s not all the misfortune and sadness for Kaya on “Elsbeth” because she will be a guest star of season 3 of the CBS procedure. Deadline obtained a statement from Patterson about her departure from “Elsbeth” after season 2, episode 19, “I have a small list”, and he reaffirms that Kaya will be there, but not as much a daily force in the series. As Patterson explained:
“My character, Kaya Blanke, embarks on a new adventure while the story continues to take place, and I am delighted to do the same, but we will see Kaya – the fans will discover what she did in her new role as a detective ” when I return to Guest Star and play with Carrie and Wendell [Pierce, Captain Wagner]. I am more than grateful to distribution, crew and producers, and of course, fans, for all love and support. “”
In the world of the show, it is a moment of mixed emotions for the officer, because it was promoted to an infiltrated agent and the opportunity to be part of the special working group in Washington, DC, is too good to pass. However, it is difficult to leave the friends she did to start something new, and it makes Kaya even more relatable for all the people who watch over there. For what it is worth, some actors actually prefer recurring roles to the regular series of the series.

Many fans have been caught by the decision to ensure that the character of Patterson leaves the team for the moment, because the dynamic really crystallizes throughout a more confident season 2. But, sometimes, this maneuver is paid in the long term, and it allows other characters to really bend their muscles in the evolutionary history that the creative team tries to tell. The executive producer of “Elsbeth”, Jonathan Tolins, spoke on the deadline for the slightly shocking decision to send Kaya to DC, and comforted the fans with the fact that she would be back as a stars invited to move forward. As he said:
“Kaya turned out to be this wonderful partner for Elsbeth, and this relationship was the one we all love so much, and we love Carra. We are delighted that the character had his promotion and realized this dream. She does not leave the world of the series. She simply will not be with us every day. I do not want to make too much change.”
Viewers did not have to wait for a very long time to see the first appearance of Patterson in “Elsbeth”, when it appeared in the final episode of season 2 “Ramen Holiday”, and this appearance concluded its company as an officer of the NYPD. There is always a potential to bring back favorites with these procedural programs, and as we have seen in the final of season 2, it is never really a farewell, and more like one, “a later”.
“Elsbeth” is available to broadcast on Pluto TV and Paramount +.
