NCIS has long been much more than just a series. The story about the so-called
Naval Criminal Investigative Service
came out 20 years ago from the parent series JAG – On Order of Honor. Since then, a number of spin-offs such as NCIS: Hawaii and NCIS: New Orleans have emerged. Another spin-off will be added in just a few weeks – and this time everything is different.
What’s so special about the new NCIS series?
So far, the Navy CIS spin-offs have been scattered in various metropolitan areas of the USA – often in particularly sunny areas. The latter also applies to the upcoming offshoot. However, NCIS: Sydney is set – as the name suggests – in faraway Australia. This is a first for the long-running crime franchise.
