The NCIS franchise is going International

 


Around this time last year, NCIS Hawaii was announced to be in development. And today, almost like clockwork, ANOTHER entry has been announced to be in development!

Official details down below from Deadline: 

NCIS: Sydney, which is slated for 2023, marks the first time one of CBS Studios’ global drama franchises is getting an international spinoff. The series, which will be filmed in Sydney, will feature local stories and Australian actors and producers, led by one of the most decorated alums of the NCIS franchise, NCIS: Los Angeles creator and former NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles executive producer/showrunner Shane Brennan who now lives in his native Australia. His exact capacity is TBD. NCIS: Sydney is being developed specifically for Paramount+ Australia as one of its first original series; it could also play in other territories, including U.S., as ViacomCBS’ streamer expands worldwide.

No. This isn't a joke.

How do I feel about this? Well, it already sounds better then Hawaii because the 7 Seasons that Shane was in charge of NCIS LA were the show's greatest.

Am I about to get sucked into this entry as well given how terrible Hawaii was? It'll depend on if I'll have a way to watch it.

I'll keep an eye on it for the time being.
