"Pirate" Contestant Found Dead of Apparent Suicide Cheryl Kosewicz, from the recently canceled CBS reality show "Pirate Master," was found dead in her home on Friday, KOLO-TV in Reno is reporting. Officials told the station the death is believed to be a suicide, but is still under investigation. Just two months earlier, Kosewicz's boyfriend also took his own life. Her death was confirmed by fellow "Pirate Master" contestant Nessa Nemir, who posted on the show's Facebook page, "All of the pirates and Cheryl's friends and family are shocked and devastated. It is a tragic loss that we all feel very deeply." Another contestant, Joycelyn "Joy" McElveen, wrote on her MySpace page, "I lay in my bed tossing and turning waiting on someone to wake me up from this horrible nightmare. What nightmare you may ask? The nightmare that I thought I would never have to deal with the news that my best friend is dead. I immediately scream out in pain and sorrow." Kosewicz was the fourth person eliminated (on the show), which was canceled just last week. TMZ

Good grief, yesterday the CBS site said epi 10 would be shown on Aug 2nd. I'll have to let it download so I can watch it without all the stops and starts.

Very sad about Cheryl. Actually one of the few players my wife and I both liked though the format didn't allow much time to get to "know" the person. Again, what a waste of what appeared to be a very bright person.

Did they dedicate the 10th epi to her? That usually happen when someone in the cast or crew passes away.

WOW what a shock both about Cheryl and the show being canceled. I know it isn't/wasn't one of the greatest shows but if they finished the show and had a winner...why are they not going to show it. Wasn't it The Mole or something like that on ABC they did that with also? Will they show all of the episodes on the web?

Yes, Nynana....you can see the episodes that are missing over at CBS.com. And, if for some reason you can't get it...we have it spoiled in the spoiler threads. OG....they didn't say anything at CBS about dedicate the show to Cheryl. There may be something else on the site, but I didn't go looking for it.

I was shocked and saddened at Cheryl's untimely death. Early on, she was my favorite, and I'm amazed at how such a seemingly strong woman would choose that path. My condolences to her family, friends, and all that cared about her. Again, these episodes are getting better as the challenges do. This was a great challenge requiring all sorts of skills. I thought the way they brought in Nessa only to cut her was needlessly cruel. It seems to me that they should have just taken their chances to see if she was on a winning or losing team, then cut her. Jay is playing the best game and deserves to win, but if this show is anything like other elimination shows (like Survivor and Big Brother) the most deserving rarely wins it all. I would, however, like to see Christa win. I love her spirit, and when she slammed her face in the mud before firing the pistol, she just solidified my belief in her.

I hear you Lyn! Not liking CBS treatment of Americans much, either. But, I agree, THAT was really seriously stinky what they did to Canadians. Cutting them off and not letting them see the website episodes either Myself, I've just been reading the happenings here at TVCH. Too lazy to try pulling up the CBS website, I was so disgusted.

O.G. ... when I type in cbs.com and it comes up, I click on show and then click Pirate Master, and right on the very beginning without me having to go look for it.........a video starts with an ad first and then the episode.

Ah, I found I could deminish it to the lower tool bar and go on with the internet. We'll have to see if this works as I'm hoping.

WOW came over to read about the suicide...so sad. Felt bad that I needed to see her pic to know who she was, but so goes reality shows anyways. For those in Canada, you can always download Torrents to see it. PM me if you need any info how to do this. It's what I use to do before the networks put stuff up, and it worldwide (high speed access is neccessary though)
