NCIS has had an impressive run of over 20 years with 20 seasons, and it’s still going strong. Have you ever wondered if the cast had as much fun behind the scenes as they did solving crimes on screen? Well, it turns out they did, and they often indulged in playful antics, embarrassing each other, and sharing unexpected life hacks.
The set wasn’t always a serious place, and sometimes, during the shooting of intense scenes, random things would fall or someone backstage would decide it was the perfect time for a sneeze. The chemistry between the cast members was evident not only in their on-screen interactions but also in their playful off-screen moments.
Mark Harmon, who portrays the stern Leroy Jethro Gibbs, was actually the maestro behind crafting a unique and light atmosphere on set. Despite his on-screen image as a crime-solving kingpin feared by criminals, in real life, he was all about goofing off and flirting.
Michael Weatherly, known for his role as Tony DiNozzo, was particularly skilled at making his co-star Cote de Pablo (Ziva) blush. Even after leaving the show, Cote fondly remembers how much she loved the job, especially the chance to bond with her peers.
Pauley Perrette, who played Abby Sciuto, had her share of challenges, especially with the sticky neck tattoos that had to be reapplied multiple times. Despite the difficulties, her love for dogs and her own dog-inspired Abby’s character quirks.
Michael Weatherly, besides being a talented actor, showcased his singing skills, creating impromptu songs on set. However, he was notorious for blanking on his lines, even going to the extent of carrying cheat sheets to help him remember.
The camaraderie among the cast members, both past and present, is evident in their interactions and shared laughter. The years may have passed, and some characters may have left the show, but the vibe behind the scenes remains unchanged. The cast’s ability to find humor and joy in their work has undoubtedly contributed to the show’s enduring success.
So, whether it’s unexpected sneezes, playful slaps on the back of the head, or impromptu songs, the NCIS cast knows how to keep the atmosphere light and entertaining both on and off the screen.
