‘NCIS: Los Angeles’ to end in May
“NCIS: Los Angeles” cast members flooded social media with farewells after learning that this will be the show’s last season.
The CBS crime drama, which spun off from “NCIS” in September
2009, will end a 14-year run on May 14, signing off with its 322nd episode, the network recently announced.
“For 14 seasons, ‘NCIS: Los Angeles’ has been a stalwart of our lineup with characters who were a joy to watch,” CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach said in a statement.
“It’s no surprise this show succeeded as a global franchise. From day one, the cast, producers and crew were amazing network/studios partners, and their teamwork, talent and spirit vividly came through on the screen.”
LL Cool J, Chris O’Donnell and Daniela Ruah play agents in the Office of Special Projects, an NCIS division (which stands for Naval Criminal Investigative Service). Other stars have included Linda Hunt, Eric Christian
Olsen, Medalion Rahimi, Caleb Castille and Gerald McRaney.
“After 14 seasons, this is the perfect time to end ‘NCIS: LA’ on top of our game!!!” LL Cool J wrote on Instagram.
Olsen wrote a poignant farewell, too: “What a spectacular journey we all shared.”
‘Cobra Kai’ to wrap with season six:
“Cobra Kai,” the continuation of “The Karate Kid” story, will get a sixth and final season on Netflix.
The trio of men who brought Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and his universe back — Josh Heard, Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg — recently released a farewell letter.
“Reacquainting the world with ‘The Karate Kid’ universe has been our humble honor,” they wrote, noting that it has “enabled us to play sensei, expanding the original storylines and birthing a new generation of underdogs. We’ve never once taken this opportunity for granted.”
They are thrilled to end the show “on our terms, leaving the Valley in the time and place we’ve always imagined ... While this may be a bittersweet day for the fandom, the Miyagiverse has never been stronger ... As we all know, Cobra Kai Never Dies.”
The show will end with about 60 episodes.
Quaid joins cast of ‘1883: The Bass Reeves Story’:
Taylor Sheridan’s upcoming Western drama, “1883: The Bass Reeves Story,” will feature Dennis Quaid, who has joined the streaming series as Sherrill Lynn, a deputy U.S. marshal.
The six-part limited series stars David Oyelowo as Reeves, the real-life deputy U.S. marshal who was born into slavery and later worked in the post-Reconstruction era as a federal peace officer in the Indian Territory.
The Paramount+ series is a spinoff of Sheridan’s “Yellowstone” prequel, “1883.”
“I’m doing ‘Bass Reeves’ for Taylor Sheridan,” Quaid recently told Fox News. “Riding horses, shooting guns — you know, making mayhem at 4 in the morning.”
