perhaps they'll call it MCIS
May. 1st, 2009 06:53 pmOkay so YOU GUYS. Earlier this week, I read this article/photo gallery from EW about this week's NCIS episode, which they're setting up to spin off a new series...
...which will star LL COOL J and CHRIS O'DONNELL. You heard me.
So of course I had to watch it. And OMG, they *have* to pick this show up, you guys. They *have* to. Because it is golden. (I really can't imagine that they won't, since NCIS gets ridiculous ratings, and CBS looooves their procedurals. Hey, as long as they keep renewing HIMYM and BBT*, I'm happy.)
ANYWAY. Reasons why this show is awesome and must therefore be properly spun off:
1. Chris O'Donnell totally stole the "Reinventing Yourself as a Badass Crazyperson for Early 90s Heartthrobs" handbook from Brian Austin Green, and I am 100% on board with that. See? His character is supposed to be this ~amazing~ undercover guy who can become anyone, and who is so ~mysterious~ that he doesn't even know his own first name. YES. Hilarity potential = incalculable.
2. LL Cool J spends the entire show with this SUPER-INTENSE look on his face, even when all he was doing was manipulating their secret-agent version of the CNN Magic Wall, which of course is filled with video footage of bad guys instead of electoral maps. Picture, if you will, LL Cool J making his intense face while engaged in the SRS BSNS of...stabbing the screen with his fingers and *swooshing* videos from one monitor to another. Again, YES.
And there was some other stuff too, but I wasn't paying all that much attention. DEAR CBS, PLEASE PICK THIS SHOW UP. It will be EPIC.
* Yeah, I finally started watching BBT. It's annakovsky's fault; I dare you to read The Failure of Einstein's Universe and not fall in love with a) the show, and b) the pairing. I am but one of many who have now seen the light.
