NCIS gets the Rewatch podcast treatment! (What to know about Off Duty: An NCIS Rewatch)
By Sabrina Reed
NCIS fans are about to be well-fed which is saying something considering how many shows in the franchise are set to return and debut--NCIS season 22, NCIS: Sydney season 2, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, and NCIS: Origins! Along for the ride is going to be a super special podcast: Off Duty: An NCIS Rewatch, premiering Tuesday, June 4.
Deadline reports Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly have been tapped to host the weekly video podcast that'll release on Spotify. Now, obviously, listeners (and watchers), can't anticipate the kind of rewatch they might be used through podcasts like Drama Queens, a One Tree Hill podcast hosted by Sophia Bush, Hilarie Burton, and Bethany Joy Lenz, or Talkville, a Smallville podcast hosted by Tom Welling and Michael Rosenbaum. After all, NCIS just finished its 21st season! That's just far too many episodes to cover.
However, Pablo and Weatherly will be diving into some of the show's most iconic episodes. And, according to the pod's Spotify entry, they're starting with season 3. As they make their way through the flagship's treasure trove of gems, they'll be joined by Sean Murray (Timothy McGee), Sasha Alexander (Caitlin Todd), Erich Christian Olsen (Marty Deeks), Jon Cryer (Dr. Cyril Taft), and more! Olsen's inclusion is a dead giveaway that the Off Duty will include a rewatch of at least one of the NCIS crossovers.
What's great about podcasts of this type is the wealth of information that the cast share with those who tune in. Be prepared for exclusive behind-the-scenes moments as Pablo, Weatherly, and their guests delve into what it's liking filming the show, particularly when it comes to game changing events, and stunt work. Here's a tease of what to expect!
There's no word on whether Off Duty will include any information about the upcoming Paramount+ series NCIS: Tony & Ziva. But considering the pod is hosted by Pablo and Weatherly, who will be reprising their roles to lead the spin-off, it's possible that we could get some teasers. Especially since filming will be underway on the show come the summer, and there's already been word that a crossover with the flagship is not off the table.
But, even if the stars stay mum about the series, and their guests also keep from giving us tidbits on NCIS season 22, this rewatch podcast is sure to be a blast. New episodes will begin releasing weekly on Tuesdays starting June 4. You can watch and listen to Off Duty: A NCIS Rewatch via Spotify!
