It may sound a little bit like a headline from The Onion, but it's actually in the works, according to CSI producer Carol Mendelsohn.
Speaking at a Banff event in Canada earlier this week, Mendelsohn said she got a call from Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre, who suggested the switch. I'm not sure if it would be permanent, but it's something they could do for an episode or two. CSI will also go on location to San Francisco this season, and next season might go to London.
Maybe the Two and a Half Men writers can have Grissom sleep with a different woman every night, and maybe even hire a wisecracking kid to help with a murder investigation. He can be a prodigy who doesn't do well in school but is a genius at forensics.

I'm no expert, but this sounds like a really bad idea. Maybe some comedy backgrounds for the CSI guys?

Two and Half Men is our families favorite comedy show on TV currently. Why do a switch when things are going along so well and drawing a big audience?
Switching writers seems really out of line and we in our household think the idea is ridiculous.

I think it's an interesting idea, because it seems that CSI can be very emotionally draining for the actors at times and this could be a way to lighten up things by having a lighter episode, who knows it could be a woman named Mrs. Butterworth being killed in a Log Cabin with a Golden Griddle or she could die after eating poisoned pancakes.
