“NCIS Los Angeles” is now in its sixth season and we’ve come to know the LA branch of this franchise pretty well. But, there’s one side of the show that we don’t get to see, the crew. One of the stars of the show, Chris O’Donnell has really gotten to know them after directing a few episodes. However, that isn’t his favourite thing when he’s sitting in the director’s chair, it’s directing LL Cool J, telling ET Canada’s Erin Cebula he gets to “order him around. Make him call me sir.”

When Erin talks to LL, he has a different version of events of when Chris is directing him: “Is that what he was doing?… I thought he was asking me politely do things.”; Clearly, the cast is like a family and jokes around a lot, but LL actually got serious with us when talking about his co-star directing him. “If that’s something Chris wants to do, you know he wants to direct episodes on the show, I want to be as supportive as I can,”; he reveals.

Fans continue to support the show more and more each season, and only now does Daniela Ruah, who plays Kensi, realize how lucky this show is. “It never went through my head that this might not go and it all stemmed from the fact that I didn’t know what I was doing,”; she admits. The actress isn’t talking about her acting skills, “NCIS LA” was her first television series and she didn’t know how many don’t make it. Of course, having “NCIS” (now the world’s number one show) fans yearning for more drama didn’t hurt “NCIS LA”‘s chances at making it!
