Two-episode 'CSI' crossover event planned

|
 
Actor Gary Sinise, perhaps best-known for his Oscar-nominated role as a badly wounded Vietnam vet in the movie ÒForrest GumpÓ, speaks about a benefit concert he will perform for a wounded veteran, while in St. Louis on April 11, 2011. Sinise and his band, named the ÒLt. Dan BandÓ after his character in that 1994 film, will play a Memorial Day weekend concert on May 27th in St. Charles, Missouri for Marine Corporal Todd Nicely, one of only three surviving quadruple amputees from the recent conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. Corporal Nicely lost both arms and legs after stepping on an IED in Afghanistan in March 2010. Sinise announced that proceeds from every ticket sold for the May 27th concert will go towards construction of a Smart Home for Corporal Nicely, part of a project sponsored by the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation.

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 20 (UPI) -- Characters played by U.S. actors Ted Danson and Gary Sinise will team up to solve a mystery in a two-part "CSI" crossover event, CBS said Tuesday.

Sinise is to guest star as his character Mac Taylor on "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation" Feb. 6. Danson will appear as D.B. Russell on "CSI: New York" Feb. 8.

"On 'CSI: Crime Scene Investigation,' Detective Mac Taylor arrives in Las Vegas to surprise his girlfriend [played by Megan Dodds] but learns she is missing. Now with her hotel room a crime scene, he joins forces with D.B. Russell and his Las Vegas CSI team in an effort to find her," a synopsis said. "The search for Mac's girlfriend continues on 'CSI: NY' as Russell heads to New York to help Taylor, but even after apprehending one of the men responsible for Christine's kidnapping, they still need to determine the motive and whether she is still alive. The case gets personal for Taylor as he wrestles with breaking police protocol in an effort to find the kidnappers."
