‘Shop Till You Drop’ & ‘Happy Birthday’ Official Details

The franchise offers two new episodes this week featuring holiday festivities gone wrong and the 200th episode of CSI: Miami. Official plot details and cast lists after the jump.

CSI: Crime Scene Investigation will air a repeat of last season’s “Neverland” on Thursday at 9:00pm ET/PT. The body of a 14-year-old boy was found in the desert, and evidence linked the case to a man who had been in jail for two years.

On Friday at 9:00pm ET/PT, CSI: New York decks the halls in “Shop Till You Drop”:

Mac and the team search for the killer of a department store manager who was found dead in a holiday display window.

Skipp Sudduth previously directed “Tales from the Undercard” during New York’s sixth season. “Shop Till You Drop” was written by Trey Callaway and Aaron Rahsaan Thomas, based on a story by Adam Targum and Christopher Silber. Callaway has 12 previous writing credits, including “Damned if You Do” from earlier this season. This is the fifth time Thomas has penned an episode of the show. His most recent credit was for this season’s “Sangre Por Sangre”. Targum wrote “Do Not Pass Go”, and Silber penned “Out of the Sky”—both episodes are from earlier this year.
