I loved him in Cheers and he's hilarious in Bored to Death and is great when he does guest appearances on Curb Your Enthusiasm but do I see Ted Danson as a CSI Investgator?
Nope.
CSI has been seriously been going down hill since Grissom left. So far the writers and producers have failed at attempting to get it to be even 1/2 as good as it used to be by adding Laurence Fishburne (who left at the end of last season). Now they're adding Ted in hopes that his name & talent will save it but...I think it's a lost cause.
The 63-year-old actor got himself an Emmy nomination for playing a villain on FX's Damages but I just don't see it.
"You can create a new character on the page, but until the perfect actor comes along and breathes life into it, it's just words," executive producer Carol Mendelsohn says. "We're very excited Ted Danson came along."Guess we'll just have tune in & see how it goes...
"From the moment we all started talking about the role, it was clear he couldn't be more perfect," adds executive producer Don McGill. "Intelligence, wit, warmth, depth of character and emotion, he brings it all. And now he'll have to bring latex gloves, too."
