We told you a long time ago about the writers of CSI switching places with the writers of Two and a Half Men for one episode, way back when people thought it was a joke and that it would never actually happen. Well, it's happening, and after the jump is the video to prove it.
The idea came from Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre, who approached CSI executive producer Carol Mendelsohn about switching teams for one episode of each series. The plot involves the murder of a famous Hollywood comedienne/sitcom diva who is difficult on the set of her show, and Lorre is quick to point out that it's NOT based on Cybill Shepherd, who he worked with on her show (*cough cough wink wink*). The video shows the behind the scenes goings on as the shows meet in the writers room and plan her Las Vegas demise.

What about CSI meets mythbusters. Just watching last nights eps and up pop Adam and Jamie during the retest of the pepper spray.

Yeah while it was kind of funny it felt totally off. They looked like some kind of bobblehead-display in the background.
To be honest I only found out AFTER the ep on IMDb what both of them had done before. I mean Matrix 2 and 3 as well as Star Wars EP 1 and 2 weren't the best movies in the world but it's really cool that they worked on those.

It was kinda cool the first time, but the way they kept cutting to them (and especially the thumbs-up at the end) made the whole thing feel really weird and forced.
