Take A Look At Tonight’s ‘NCIS:LA’ Premiere
5 min readThe eighth season of NCIS: Los Angeles will premiere tonight, in the show’s new timeslot. As CSI Files previously reported, “High-Value Target” and “Belly of the Beast” are scheduled to air from 8:30-10:30pm ET/8:00-10:00pm PT, due to an NFL doubleheader. (We’ll post news of any further delays when that information becomes available.) First, here’s a video about the show’s move to Sundays, including details about the new season:
Next, check out this collection of sneak peeks from the two-hour premiere. (These may not be in chronological order.) First, here’s a clip featuring Sam Hanna (LL Cool J), Kensi Blye (Daniela Ruah), Owen Granger (Miguel Ferrer), G Callen (Chris O’Donnell), Hetty Lange (Linda Hunt), Marty Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen), Eric Beale (Barrett Foa) and guest star Jackson Hurst (Under Secretary of Defense Corbin Duggan). (It’s also available on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
Scene number two features Callen, Deeks, Kensi and Sam. (You can also find it on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
And here’s sneak peek number three, featuring Deeks, Sam, Kensi, Callen and guest star Sammy Sheik (Ahmed Han Asakeem). (It can also be found on CBS.com, CBS Press Express and SpoilerTV.)
Olsen shared this clip on Instagram:
Executive Producer R Scott Gemmill spoke to TV Line about season eight, including the return of the mole from last season. That issue “comes back to bite us in the ass,” Gemmill said, “and the team has a limited time to solve it before they all get canned.”
O’Donnell and LL Cool J did a live Facebook Q&A last week, which you can watch below:
And here are several promotional interviews with LL Cool J and O’Donnell:
