Same city, different show.

Andrew Lipsitz and Timothy Lea are former writers and producers for the CSI franchise. Lipsitz worked on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation, and both he and Lea worked on CSI: New York. The pair will now join another successful crime franchise: Law and Order.

Lipsitz was part of the CSI production team during the first four seasons. He started on the show's second episode, "Cool Change", and his final episode was the fourth season finale, "Bloodlines". Lipsitz returned to CSI during the seventh season to produce "Fallen Idols".

After leaving CSI post-season four, Lipsitz became an executive producer for New York. He worked on the show during the first two seasons, starting with the premiere episode, "Blink". Lea was a co-producer during the same period for the third member of the CSI franchise. Lea also started with "Blink" and continued through the season two finale, "Charge of this Post", for which he also has a writing credit. Lea returned to New York for several episodes in season three, once as a supervising producer ("Sleight Out of Hand") and twice as a writer ("Love Run Cold" and "A Daze of Wine and Roaches").

Lipsitz and Lea will once again be working for a show set in New York City. The pair will be co-executive producers for the eighth season of Law and Order: Criminal Intent, which begins airing on the USA network in November. Criminal Intent has two separate production teams. Lea and Lipsitz will work with executive producer and director John Coles in New York, creating the episodes which feature Julianne Nicholson and new cast member Jeff Goldblum.

Why can't the CSIs get dates?

	All work and no play makes Greg a blue boy.
	It probably has something to do with the fact that every time Horatio Caine has sex with a woman, she dies.
	Shower sex loses its allure when there's lemons involved.
	These people collect body fluids for a living. Then again, if David the coroner can get laid...
	They can get dates, I bet. We just don't see it.
	Three words: Hank the Skank.
