Hopefully everyone was able to tune in last night to Tricia Helfer guest starring on CBS’ hit sitcom, Two and a Half Men. Tricia reprised her November 2009 guest role of Gail in yesterday’s episode 7.18 “Ixnay on the Oggie Day”. Here’s our coverage of the episode, beginning with a recap. The text has been hidden from plain view in case someone here missed the episode and wants to remain unspoiled, so please highlight to read:
Having dinner at a pizza parlor with Alan and Jake, a post-break-up Charlie unexpectedly runs into Chelsea’s high school friend, Gail. Both coping with broken engagements, the two end up sleeping together. When Chelsea then wants to get back together with Charlie, he finds himself in a sticky situation. Chelsea proves forgiving once, but a second time?…
Tricia Helfer was once again lovely as Gail, and was this time given a bit more material to work with even though her appearance overall was somewhat smaller than in last Fall’s episode, and as before the funniest lines were given to the main cast.

As previously reported, Tricia Helfer guest-starred as Gail in yesterday’s episode of the popular CBS’ sitcom Two and a Half Men, 7.08 “Gorp. Fnark. Schmegle.” (previously titled “The Moustache Attachment”). Here’s our coverage of the episode, starting with our episode recap. As always, the recap contains spoilers as to the episode storyline, so please highlight to read:
Charlie and Chelsea are having dinner with Chelsea’s former college roommate Gail, when Chelsea invites Gail to stay with them to cope from a bad break-up. The sexy, stunning Gail instantly makes an impression on Charlie, Alan and Jake, and causes a particular headache to Charlie, being already involved with someone else. While Charlie dreams of threesomes with Gail and Chelsea, Alan fantasizes about hooking up with her, and both Jake and Berta find themselves admiring her amazing body. Worried of what Gail’s presence might do to his ongoing relationship, Charlie sends and unwitting but all the more smitten Alan to make a move on Gail, convinced his advances will drive her out of the house. Sure enough, it isn’t long before Gail thanks Charlie for his hospitality and makes a quicker-than-quick exit from the Harper residence.
