Among the series picked up by CBS and included on their fall 2009 lineup is NCIS: Los Angeles. Not to be confused by the original and still chugging along, NCIS. Set to air on Tuesday nights, the drama series will follow the world of undercover surveillance at the Office of Special Projects based in L.A.
Below is CBS’ description for the series:
NCIS: Los Angeles - NCIS: LOS ANGELES is a drama about the high stakes world of undercover surveillance at the Office of Special Projects (OSP), a division of NCIS that is charged with apprehending dangerous and elusive criminals that pose a threat to the nation's security. By assuming false identities and utilizing the most advanced technology, this team of highly trained agents goes deep undercover, putting their lives on the line in the field to bring down their targets. Special Agent "G" Callen (Chris O'Donnell) is a chameleon who transforms himself into whomever he needs to be to infiltrate the criminal underworld. His partner is Special Agent Sam Hanna (LL COOL J), a former U.S. Navy SEAL who has seen action in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and a surveillance expert who uses state of the art monitoring equipment to look out for those in the field and feed them crucial information. Both Callen and Hanna report to Special Agent Lara Macy (Louise Lombard), the OSP team leader responsible for directing the operations and making life-or-death decisions. Assisting the team is Special Agent Kensi Lo (Daniela Ruah), the exceptionally bright daughter of a slain Marine who lives for the adrenalin rush that comes with undercover work, and Operational Psychologist Nate Getz (Peter Cambor), adept at getting into anybody's head, profiling the target and monitoring agents' states of mind before, during and after missions. Armed with the latest in high tech gear and sent regularly into life-threatening situations, this tight-knit team relies on each other to do what is necessary to protect national interests. Shane Brennan (NCIS) is the executive producer for CBS Television Studios.
Are you thinking the same thing I am? Chris O’Donnell and LL Cool J are finally working together! Ok, maybe not but as both of them were on my list of major crushes back in the ‘90’s, it is pretty cool that they’re both starring in this new series. As there’s a pretty sizable audience for the original NCIS, I’m sure there are plenty of people planning to check this show out along with all the LL and O’Donnell fans out there. br>
NCIS: Los Angeles will air Tuesdays on CBS (9-10 p.m. ET) starting fall 2009.
