NCIS franchise

[TheAussieGonz]

NCIS first premiered as a two-part backdoor pilot on JAG (the episodes Ice Queen and Meltdown, IIRC), so it is indeed a spin-off of that series and not The Presidio.

Granted that's accurate but having watched Mark Harmon in the Presidio, I'll always see that as a closer role association.

I mean, this is hardly the first time this has happened in the franchise. Actors from JAG's main cast such as Patrick Labyorteaux, Scott Lawrence and Zoe McLellan have played different characters on the various NCIS shows, with McLellan even being main cast on one (New Orleans).

Yup.

Pretty typical for a Bellisario production. Sean Murray played two different characters on JAG. Technically, so did Catherine Bell.

James. LL Cool J is short for Ladies Love Cool James.

Yup.

Patrick Labyterou puts on stuff on social talking about his career (so lots on JAG) and one talked about Catherine Bell's hiring to play Sarah McKenzie.

The show moved networks after the first season cancellation, the higher ups wanted a different lead actress and had some ideas on what they wanted in appearance etc.

Catherine Bell had what suits wanted and the producers knew her from the series 1 final and things went from there.

I'm only 10 years behind on NCIS. Might be time to catch up.

I miss NCIS: Hawaii. So much potential & so much loose ends that will never be finished. Sad.
