CSI Writers Can’t Do Comedy

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

In reference to this crossover, I can only sum up the Two and A Half Men episode as written by CSI scribes into one word: LAME. This is one of those things were the idea is sound, but the execution fails to deliver. 

They did, however:

  • managed to do a remix of the two show’s opening theme song, but it still sounded lame to me.
  • parodied Marg Helgenberger’s character on CSI, down to her ample cleavage. Was not amused.
  • did the effects CSI is famous for on Jake’s tummy as he was swallowing licorice or about to release gas. Pointless. And, yuck! — Gross!
  • had George Eads do a cameo. He appeared early in the episode (three minute mark) as a wedding guest, had one or two lines and was on screen for like 10 seconds.

Yup, there was a murder, a suspect and a motive.

There was a crime. And its verdict? DO NOT EVER ATTEMPT TO DO THIS AGAIN, CSI Writers.


I wonder if the writers from Two and A Half Men can pull off a one-hour procedural crime drama. Because based on this? I’m not anticipating the one for CSI’s Thursday offering.

Absolutely right!

I wonder how their ratings fared though.

Surprisingly good, considering most ratings are down this season. 13.50M, it was higher than House. And I don’t really get why.
