Ncis: new orleans guest stars male

For a franchise that's spawned so many spinoffs, it makes sense NCIS began as a backdoor pilot itself.

Ncis: new orleans season 3 cast

The team, consisting of Gibbs Mark Harmon and DiNozzo, originally appeared in a couple of episodes of JAG during season 8, and they proved popular enough to earn their own show. NCIS was initially slow to build a following but after a few seasons, it became a huge ratings winner. NCIS' longevity is down in no small part to its cast, though a lot of fan favorites have departed throughout its run; that said, season 17 will see the return of a beloved character.

That series has also proven remarkably sturdy and will return for season 11 in The second spinoff NCIS: New Orleans debuted in , and has reinforced the franchise's winning formula by lasting six seasons so far. The series isn't exactly a bold reinvention of the formula, but its great cast has viewers tuning in every week regardless.

Here's a breakdown of the main cast and characters. Pride is a highly respected agent and also owns his own bar. He's divorced with one daughter named Laurel. LaSalle is Pride's right-hand man and hails from Alabama. Like Pride, he's dedicated to his work, though he has a more active love life. He and Agent Percy Shalita Grant formed something of a "will they, won't they" attraction, which ultimately never came to be when she resigned from the team during season 4.

She's shown herself to be a compassionate person more than once, such as the time she fostered two children caught up in an NCIS case. She studied to become a lawyer before joining the FBI and joined the team following the departure of Agent Brody by Pride's request.
