‘Take My Life, Please!’ Official Details
3 min readThis week, the franchise offers two repeats and a fresh CSI episode featuring Tim Conway and Jennifer Tilly. Official plot details and cast list after the jump.
Starting out the week on Monday at 10:00pm ET/PT, CSI: Miami will re-air “Count Me Out” from earlier this season. The investigation of a census worker’s death put Ryan and Natalia in danger when they were trapped inside of a meth lab that was about to explode.
On Wednesday at 10:00pm ET/PT, CSI: New York will air a repeat of this season’s “It Happened To Me”. Hawkes treated a man while volunteering with a medical unit in Central Park, but he dismissed the man’s problem as a simple nosebleed—when the man wound up dead later that day, Hawkes blamed himself for not realizing that he had been poisoned.
Rounding out the week on Thursday at 9:00pm ET/PT, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation combines comedy and tragedy in “Take My Life, Please!”:
A legendary comic from the good old days of Las Vegas is set to reunite with his partner on stage for one night only, until one half of the famous duo is found dead.
