Although its ratings dropped off quite sharply last year, the NCIS: Los Angeles TV show was not cancelled by CBS. Now that the second series in the successful NCIS franchise is back for a 10th season, will it earn the kind of ratings to warrant further installments, or will the Tiffany Network decide to wrap it up with an even 10? Will NCIS: Los Angeles be cancelled or renewed for season 11? Stay tuned.
A military police procedural, NCIS: Los Angeles stars Chris O’Donnell, LL Cool J, Linda Hunt, Daniela Ruah, Eric Christian Olsen, Barrett Foa, Renée Felice Smith, and Nia Long. The CBS action drama centers on the high-stakes NCIS division charged with apprehending those elusive criminals who threaten the nation’s security. Working undercover with advanced technology, these highly trained agents readily risk their lives to bring down their targets.
