Watch Clips From Tonight’s ‘NCIS’ & ‘NCIS:NOLA’ Crossover
5 min readAs CSI Files previously reported, NCIS and NCIS: New Orleans return from the winter hiatus with a two-hour crossover tonight. Here’s the first sneak peek from the NCIS portion of the crossover, “Sister City: Part One”, featuring Dwayne Pride (Scott Bakula), Leon Vance (Rocky Carroll), Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon), Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette), Ellie Bishop (Emily Wickersham), Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly), Timothy McGee (Sean Murray) and guest star Wendy Davis (Navy Captain Kensington Bloom). (You can also find it on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
Scene number two features Abby and Gibbs. (It’s also available on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
Next, check out the first clip from the NCIS: NOLA half of the crossover, “Sister City: Part Two”, featuring Jimmy Palmer (Brian Dietzen) and Dr Donald “Ducky” Mallard (David McCallum). (You can also watch it on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
And here’s sneak peek number two, which features Christopher LaSalle (Lucas Black) and Bishop. (It can also be found on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
TV Guide shared a scene from the crossover as well, featuring Abby and Sebastian Lund (Rob Kerkovich):
CBS also posted a behind-the-scenes video for the crossover, which you can watch below. It features Kerkovich, Wickersham, Weatherly, Perrette and guest star Tyler Ritter (Luca Sciuto). (You can also find it on CBS.com and CBS Press Express.)
Perrette visited the ladies of The Talk today. You can watch the full episode here (skip to 30:30 for the interview, including a clip from “Sister City: Part One”), or watch a clip below:
Kerkovich spoke to TV Guide about his character working with his NCIS counterpart. Here’s the quote:
People are going to get a deeper look into Abby, especially in how she relates to some family members. I think fans are going to be delighted to see this other side of her get fleshed out more. [Pauley] and I got along great. I think there was sort of a kinship in the fact that we both know we’re the characters who bring probably the most levity or quirk to a show like this. So I think there was some unspoken bonding in that regard. … But on top of that, her character’s also going through this emotional thing because her brother’s a focal point of the plot. So it wasn’t just your typical, ‘Oh, I found this microscopic trace on this thing.’ It was that, but on top of that it was having to try to comfort her about what was going on.
CBS posted an interview with Ritter about guest-starring on NCIS and NCIS: NOLA, including this question and answer:
What was it like working with Pauley Perrette, who plays Abby Scuito?
We have been friends now for two years and so we came to this job with an ease between us and we both knew how much fun this would be. As far as professionally, the first thing that Pauley did was tell me exactly what episodes Luca had been mentioned in or seen as a little boy. She helped with the research and building Luca’s character. There are few people that I would want to work with more than her. To play her little brother that she loves, and drives her crazy at times, was an honor.
