NCIS Cast Share Behind The Scene SECRETS Fans NEVER Knew!
Welcome back to Screen Tremble, today on the channel we are going to check out NCIS cast behind the scene secrets fans didn’t know about. A staple of CBS’s prime-time line-up for nearly 20 years, NCIS is a major franchise for the network, and it continues to be one of the station’s biggest shows. With close to 400 episodes, NCIS has produced a whole lot of television, and the show has certainly seen a lot of changes happen off-camera as well. Indeed, the CBS drama has definitely seen a lot of drama of its own, while there are also a lot of juicy, surprising behind-the-scenes details that maybe even long-time fans of the series might not know. Without further ado, then, let’s take a look at 10 behind-the-scenes facts about CBS’s NCIS.
NCIS Originated As A JAG Spin-Off. Since NCIS is an immensely popular CBS series which has inspired its own spin-offs, it can be easy to forget that this prominent TV franchise was, in fact, a spin-off series itself. Indeed, the origins of NCIS date back to JAG, the popular military CBS series which ran for 10 seasons. Shortly before that series ended its run in 2005, Donald P. Bellisario created this Navy-based spin-off series, which premiered back in September of 2003. While the series didn’t make the biggest splash upon premiere, it soon crept up the charts and it has since become one of the most famous, well-watched CBS shows. Donald P. Bellisario Was In The Marine Corps, Which Influenced The Creation Of NCIS. Inspiration can arrive from a number of different sources. When it comes to this show, though, Donald P. Bellisario, the creator of JAG and NCIS, drew inspiration from his own life experiences. As it was noted in a New York Times profile, Bellisario served in the Marine Corps from 1955 through 1959, where he eventually attained the rank of Sergeant. While he wasn’t specifically in the NCIS, which stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service, he did have high-ranking experience in the Corps, which played a hand in the making of both CBS dramas when Bellisario transitioned into his TV career.
