NCIS: Los Angeles

I am a huge fan of the original NCIS show (a blog on the new season coming up soon!) and when they did the two parter featuring Chris O'Donnell and L L Cool J as two NCIS agents from the LA branch (who knew there was another branch?) I loved it.  I said to my wife that it would make a great spin off show.  Sure enough, along it came and it didn't disappoint!  Bringing in the always wonderful Linda Hunt as a female Gibbs, was a masterstroke of genius.  I love the underlying story of trying to discover who G really is.
Just watched the first episode of this year's new season and they brought back Eric Christian Olsen as Detective Deeks.  Normally I hate when a new character is introduced, but after the death of Dominic, they need another character. David Bellisario and Shane Brennan have a knack of doing this really well, just look at Ziva David who replaced Agent Kate Todd.
Great story and they got straight into the action.  This is an always solid show and very enjoyable to watch.  Lots of movie-stardom in this show as well! If you love NCIS, you will love NCIS: Los Angeles.  They even have characters cross over once in while!  Cool!
