Spoiler: spoiler tag just to be careful! Shane Bennan is developing a spin-off of NCIS: LA and while I love NCIS: LA (can't stand NCIS though :lol I don't think I'm really for this. There used to be 3 CSI's and now there's only 2. NCIS itself was a spin-off of JAG which isn't around any more. The Criminal Minds spin-off didn't last all that long. I think it just shows a lack of imagination in being able to develop new shows. NCIS: LA Two-Parter to Set Up Possible Spin-Off
I'm all for the spinoff. Shane Brennen is one of the best and most underappreciated TV producers in the business today, and I'm all for anything that would give him a chance to produce another show. It can't be any worse than the crap that is constantly cranked out by the horrible hack, Shonda Rhymes. The key for the show is that the stories will have to be unique and they need to hire a cast with great chemistry. I've already seen it speculated on another site, but I would love for this to be the vehicle that gets Josh Holloway to return to TV.
CBS announces the characters for the new NCIS spinoff: http://tvline.com/2012/11/30/ncis-los-angeles-spin-off-cast Based upon this, I'd love to see the following cast in the roles: Paris - Lucy Lawless Roy - Dennis Haysbert Danny - Scott Speedman Clara - Tricia Helfer Kai - Justin Hartley
I don't know how I feel about a spinoff. At least Donald P. Bellisario can't sue Shane Brennan for it. For years, I was angry that DPB had spun off NCIS from JAG and vowed never to watch the new show (I watched of course, the 2 episodes Mark was in on JAG that officially started the spinoff). I came to NCIS very late (multiple marathons on USA Network finally broke me down and I caved in). Caught up with all the seasons, and now love it, along with the LA version. Everything doesn't need a spinoff. And just because it's coming from a very popular and good-ratings show, doesn't mean the spinoff will be a success. Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior totally crashed and bombed. I'd give it a chance of course, but I'm conflicted.
Shane Brennan is one of the most talented and underrated producers in TV, and I welcome the spinoff if it means our getting another show from him. Another thing to keep in mind is spinoffs sometimes are actually completely different projects that the net would like to greenlight, but they want to develop it as a spinoff to insure the best possible chance for its success. Knots Landing is a perfect example. The script sat on some CBS exec's desk for several years before Dallas became a success. At that point, CBS asked the writers to rewrite the script to introduce the character of Gary and Valeen Ewing, and the rest as they say is history. For some reason, I'm thinking the NCIS spinoff may be a similar project as its premise is so totally different than the other two shows.
I'll give this spinoff as much of a chance as I did NCIS LA. I just hope that SB can split his time effectively and that LA won't suffer for this new spinoff.
NCIS: LA will be moving to 10pm on July 2 to make way for Big Brother at 9pm. I'm assuming it's just for summer reruns. Susan
I wouldn't be so sure. If the NCIS LA spinoff is picked up, CBS may air it between NCIS and NCIS LA so we can have an entire NCIS night! :thumbsup:
