CBS is sticking with Michael Weatherly. Deadline reports the NCIS actor has been cast in the network’s new drama pilot, Bull.
Earlier, we reported Weatherly would be leaving NCIS at the end of its current season. He has played Agent Tony DiNozzo since the series began in 2003,
Bull is based on the early days of daytime talk show host Dr. Phil (McGraw), when the doctor was “head of one of the most prolific trial consulting services of all time.” McGraw has co-written the pilot alongside Paul Attanasio.
Weatherly will play Dr. Jason Bull, “who runs Trial Sciences Inc., a company that analyzes juries to help develop defense strategies.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Weatherly on NCIS? Are you a fan of Dr. Phil? Would you watch Bull?
I will definitely check out the new show Bull with Michael
Weatherly. He is a fine actor and has a great personality.
Not crazy about Dr. Phil. But hopefully Michael will bring his own
Persona to the show and bring along all of us fans.
I love Michael Weatherly. I love his character on NCIS and I think he’s a good actor. I would love to see him in another show, especially a comic detective show, I don’t have much hope for this show. I don’t think Dr. Phil is as popular as he was in his early days and I don’t see Michael playaing him. I will watch the show and give it a chance.
If McGraw is scripting this show I don’t give it much hope. Dr. mc Graw I never watch, don’t care for him, if this show sounds like him CANCEL
Like Micheal, hope it works for him, but sure have my doubts.
He surely could find a better show, he is good.
Steven Spielberg is also partners on this with Dr. PHIL and we know how he is with direction g.
Hopefully I this new show will get a chance. Sounds interesting and worth a look. Everything depends on the script and the cast.
While not particularly interested in Dr, Phil, I have delighted in the acting of Michael Weatherly. Not usually even a TV fan, it will be interesting to me to see if it was role on NCIS, or his actual acting I so enjoyed!
I’m a big fan of Michel Weatherly’s but not as Dr. Phil. I really wish they ended it . I’m done when Mark Harmon leaves.
Mr. Weatherly should have just left in search for Zeva. Will be sad to see him leave. Hopefully they will not kill him off like they did Kate.
I feel so sad tony is leaving. love him. he is adorable and I really don’t know how ncis will fare without him. I’ve been a loyal fan since the very first show and have mourned every loss to the show. I just hope tony is not killed-off. who will replace him? someone special as he’ll have very big shoes to fill.
NCIS is finished whether it was renewed or not! There’s no team chemistry anymore! I thought it got bad when Ziva left, now Tony? What are they going to do next, start having Abby doing Ninja training? Just put NCIS out of its misery!
I hate that he is leaving NCIS – won’t be the same for sure. I will check out Bull just because Michael is in it. Not sure if it’s my kind of show though.
Sounds like bull— to me. Pass
i always watch Weatherly in NCIS. I won’t watch Bull I’m not sure if this is the right series for him
LOVE TONY/WEATHERLY ON NCIS. NOT SURE I WILL WATCH BULL. I HATE WATCHING NEW SHOWS THEN THEIR CANCELLED FOR A NEW REALITY OR SOME OTHER STUPID THING. THEY DON’T EVEN GIVE THE NEW ONES A CHANCE. I WILL CONTINUE TO WATCH NCIS, NCIS LA, AND NEW ORLEANS. I’M NOT SURE TONY CAN BE REPLACED ON NCIS. VERY UPSET HE’S LEAVING A GREAT SHOW TO TRY A SHOW THAT MAY GET CANCELLED AFTER 1 SEASON. WHY TONY WHY????
Just another standard sounding crime drama. If they want to do more crime dramas on CBS why not go with something a little more fun. Say a Batgirl TV show, with Barbara as a lawyer advocating for the innocent during the day and a caped superhero fighting crime at night catching the real criminals.
Love weatherly but not my kind of thing. Still fuming that he’s leaving ncis.
Love Weatherly as do all the others. A show based on Dr. Phil is not my thing
