As for what the new year has in store for NCIS fans, the actress was thrilled by what she’s seen of the crossover so far.
“Wilmer [Valderrama] thinks it started when he and I presented at the Emmys,” she said. “Because it was our first season and they were like, ‘Wait a minute – NCIS, NCIS: Hawaii…’
“He and I have known each other for two decades, so we have a natural chemistry, so they were like, ‘Let’s try this’, and it all ended up snowballing in a positive way.
“But me, I joke about Hawaii wanting to be the one to lovingly take credit, saying, ‘Maybe we just needed some aloha to bring all three of the franchises together!’”
The NCISverse crossover airs Monday, January 9 on CBS in the USA. A UK release date is yet to be announced.
