When "NCIS: Los Angeles" first premiered in September 2009, it significantly won its timeslot and was the second most -watched show of the week. It has received mixed reviews with critics saying that the CBS series delivers intriguing crimes with multifaceted storyline.

The actor-rapper revealed that the episode finale is the most dramatic thing he has ever done on TV.
LL Cool J added that the new "NCIS: Los Angeles" showrunner, Scott Gemmill is taking the series' development, characters and stories into another level, which will get everyone floored. "It is. You know, Sam Hanna, my character - his wife gets kidnapped and then all hell breaks loose," the actor told CBS News. "It's a little more dramatic than you probably expect."
Daniela Ruah, who plays as Kensi Blye in "NCIS: Los Angeles" also said that the finale is not something that the characters are going to resolve that easy. She went on to say that it's a big one that will stick with audiences even until the finale is done.
