What would you say if I were to tell you that CBS is going to be spinning off their successful procedural NCIS with a lead character played by James Todd Smith? I bet you would say “well, Jon, that’s not really surprising, but who is this James Todd Smith fellow?”
Well, what if I told you that Mr. Smith has appeared in S.W.A.T., Any Given Sunday, Deep Blue Sea, Halloween H20. Still don’t know our mystery man? Ok, how about if I told you he was a Grammy award winning recording artist whose hits include Going Back to Cali, I Can’t Live Without My Radio, Hey Lover, and Mama Said Knock You Out. If you haven’t figured out who Mr. Smith is, you’re an idiot.
The one, the only, LL Cool J will be staring along side of the Boy Wonder himself, Chris O’Donnell. The series will get its start as one part of a two part NCIS episode later this season. LL’s character, Sam, is a rough but engaging former Navy SEAL, who is a guru on the happenings in the Middle East. I’ve always enjoyed LL, and given CBS’s track record with procedural spinoffs, I’d say this show will be in the top 10 in the Nielsen’s in no time.
