Trivia

NCIS has connections to the drama Chicago Hope, in that both Rocky Carroll, who played Dr Wikes on Hope had in effect replaced Lauren Holly on both shows (Chicago Hope and now NCIS). This also reunites Rocky Carroll with yet another Chicago Hope alum, Mark Harmon.

The NCIS theme was composed and performed by a group called 'Numeriklab', their music has also been featured in some episodes, mostly during the scenes in Abby's lab.

The original NCIS pilot was first aired as a two-part episode of "JAG".

Anthony DiNozzo is a huge fan of the shows "Airwolf" and "Magnum, P.I.", both shows were also created by Donald P. Bellisario.

Kate Todd once asked Gibbs what Ducky looked like when he was younger. Gibbs replied, "Illya Kuryakin." David McCallum portrayed Kuryakin in "The Man from U.N.C.L.E." (1964) and in The Return of the Man from U.N.C.L.E.: The Fifteen Years Later Affair (1983) (TV).

According to Tony, his wealthy father had cut him off from his inheritance when he was only 12 years old. Incidentally, Michael Weatherly's father cut him off from his inheritance when he decided to pursue acting. Weatherly's father made money by importing Swiss Army Knives to the United States.

Eagle eyed viewers will notice that there is a picture of Donald P. Bellisario hanging on the "NCIS Most Wanted Wall"; there is also a picture of Donald P. Bellisario's on the wall of Timothy McGee's agent's office reception.

McGee's first novel is titled "Deep Six". It is the name of an actual novel written by Clive Cussler.

In the opening credits, the aircraft carrier going under the bridge is a clip from the opening credits of The Presidio, starring Mark Harmon as a San Francisco police inspector investigating a murder on the Presidio army base in San Francisco.

McGee uses the pseudonym Thom E Gemcity for his novel 'Deep Six'. Thom E Gemcity is an anagram for Timothy McGee.

Sean Murray, who plays Tim McGee is Donald Bellisario's step-son.

During the opening credits there is a note about what NCIS represents and it reads: The Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) is a worldwide federal law enforcement organization whose mission is to protect and serve the Navy and Marine Corps and their families.

The "whoomp" sound heard at the beginning and end of each Act, when the scene goes to black and white is Donald P. Bellisario's own voice.

Walk-On Role on 'NCIS' Up For Grabs to Support Native American Businesses

July 17, 2008

NCISIf you're an NCIS fan who's dreaming of appearing in the show one day, then this may be your chance to do just that.  A non-profit organization based in Oregon is giving away a walk-on role in a future episode of the CBS crime series, in order to raise funds for Native American businesses.

The raffle was the brainchild of ONABEN—A Native American Business Network, a group which was founded in 1991 by four Oregon tribes who joined together to promote privately-owned Native American businesses.  The group will sell 1,999 tickets—one for $5 or five for $20—for the raffle, which will be on August 20 in Portland, Oregon.

'NCIS' Actor Talks TV Business

July 8, 2008

ncisSince 2003, Mark Harmon has starred as Leroy Jethro Gibbs on the CBS series NCIS.  Though he hasn't won an award for his playing the Special Agent, unlike his work on The West Wing, Reasonable Doubts, and Eleanor and Franklin: The White House Years where he earned numerous awards and nominations, the 56-year-old actor remains to be an integral part of the police procedural drama.

With the rapid emergence of reality shows, many scripted programs have been put to the backburner.  But that doesn't seem to be a threat to NCIS, which has consistently surged in the ratings while remaining impervious to tough reality competition including FOX's mega-hit American Idol.
