Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

True it's on IMDB but:

So what is the premise for this series supposed to be anyway?

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

If this is true then I'll pass, thanks.

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

Anyone know what this show will actually be about? It'll be interesting to see where this spin-off branches out to; JAG was navy lawyers, NCIS is navy crimebusters, so what will the new one be?

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

Navy cooks? :)

To continue the trend of working professionals, it should be about the National Naval Medical Center.

But early rumors said that it was going another crimebuster show.

Wait....what? :vulcan:

I love LL Cool J and all but that's just kind of weird. And as far as I'm concerned, Chris O'Donnell screwed up his career long ago.

I'll stick with the original; Mark Harmon and crew. :bolian:

TVGuide adds a bit about the characters

Apparently O'Donnell will be playing a chameleon like investigator who can infiltrate any situation and LL Cool J will be a former Navy SEAL. This will also be a crime show and these are apparently the two characters Director Vance mentioned on last Tuesday's episode.

Was Vance even in last week's episode? I don't remember him at all.

Some of those comments on that page are laughable. Someone can't see O'Donnell as a chameleon based solely on his/her own typecasting tunnel vision!

Gibbs gonna knock you out!
Batman & Robin said knock you out!

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

O'Donnell's not really the first person I think of, but like that commenter, it might just be my personal typecasting of the guy. If the characters are even half as well-written as the characters on the parent show, then I'll be happy.

I like LL Cool J, and it'd be interesting to see what an ex-SEAL would bring to a criminal investigation team.

^ If Knight Rider is any indication hand to hand combat skills...

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

A Navy SEAL with hand-to-hand combat skills? Get outta here! :p

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

^ Yep. Who'da thunk it?

Ok I just read online that O'Donnell's character is named Callen and LL is playing Sam Hallen.

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

I will give it a shot, as I love NCIS.

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

I am not into NCIS, but I'll definitely watch this. I've always liked Chris O'Donnell, but I wonder why his career tanked like it did. He is a capable actor given a good script.

Re: Chris O'Donnell & LL Cool J to star in NCIS Spinoff?
 

What's funny to me is that a lot of these comments are similar to ones back when NCIS first premiered. Many people didn't see the JAG spinoff working.
