For some franchises, crossovers are straightforward; the exhibits all happen in the identical metropolis (One Chicago, Regulation & Order, two of the FBIs). That’s by no means been the case for NCIS, although it has made crossovers work with the mothership, Los Angeles, New Orleans, and Hawai’i. However the latest model, Sydney, now in its second season, is in a complete completely different ballpark: It’s 9,0000 miles away, as showrunner Morgan O’Neill stresses.
“It’s a problem for us,” he tells TV Insider. “We’re not simply within the studio subsequent door. We are able to’t simply pull Rocky Carroll out and drag him on our set. It’s not fairly that straightforward. However I might say the good thrill of a franchise like NCIS is that it’s an interconnected world. Followers love that it’s, and we’re definitely attempting to work out methods the place we will fulfill the need for a type of crossover or an interplay of kinds. So that could be occurring in our future, I suppose, is the easiest way to place it.”
Olivia Swann, who leads the joint NCIS-AFP group as Particular Agent Michelle Mackey, says she’d “be so down” for a crossover. “Mackey and Jessica Knight [NCIS‘s Katrina Law] would kick some severe butt.” Add in Sydney‘s Evie (Tuuli Narkle) and Blue (Mavournee Hazel) and NCIS‘s Kasie (Diona Reasonover), and “that’s the dream,” she provides. “It might simply be chaotic in the easiest way.”
The Season 2 premiere did make point out of NCIS Director Vance (Carroll), and it wasn’t the primary time. Swann reveals that there’s one other reference comedian as much as NCIS or one other present from the franchise this season.
“There’s a really cool one,” she shares. “I don’t know if I can say particularly which episode, however in direction of the tip of the season, there’s a really cool one which we drop in there.”
Although we pressed O’Neill for one thing extra, all he’d say is, “It’s type of laborious to tease with out spoiling it.”
