'CSI'/'Two and a Half Men' Writer Switcheroo: Plot, Cast Details Emerge

oscardahl · 04-04-2008, 09:08 AM

CBS has allowed two of its largest franchises try an unprecedented little trick. Writers for CSI will write an episode of Two and a Half Men, and writers for Two and a Half Men will write an episode of CSI. Both episodes are tentatively set to air in May. Earlier in the year, there were rumblings that the CSI episode, written by Two and Half Men show runners Chuck Lorre and Lee Aronsohn, revolved around a female sitcom star who is killed by someone fed up with her back-stabbing ways. The episode is, according to TV Guide's Michael Ausiello, entitled “Two and a Half Deaths.” Despite the silly title, there's some history here that makes this episode idea quite sinister, and that history involves Cybill Shepherd.

Which show you like?

I hate both these shows. But ever since I first heard about these idea, I have been obsessed with seeing it come to fruition. From a writers perspective, this experiment is awesome, with potential for total awfulness. While the CSI idea sounds intriguing, I'm equally as interested to see what the CSI writers have in store for 2.5 Men. Maybe it will actually be funny for once.

CSI is one of those shows I really enjoy, though I never watch it. Two and a Half Men is one of those shows I really despise, though I never watch it.
