NCIS: Los Angeles is a drama about the high stakes world of the Office of Special Projects (OSP), a division of NCIS that is charged with apprehending dangerous and elusive criminals that pose a threat to the nation's security. By assuming false identities and utilizing the most advanced technology, this team of highly trained agents goes deep undercover, putting their lives on the line in the field to bring down their targets.

Special Agent "G" Callen is a chameleon who transforms himself into whomever he needs to be to infiltrate the criminal underworld. His partner is Special Agent Sam Hanna, a former U.S. Navy SEAL who has seen action in both Afghanistan and Iraq, and a surveillance expert who uses state of the art monitoring equipment to look out for those in the field and feed them crucial information...

my take
I'm a little surprised it took this long. NCIS is actually a JAG spinoff that has been a solid hit for CBS, even up against the Idol Deathblossom. Now we're going to visit the Office of Special Projects, a division of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) based in Los Angeles. They track and presumably capture the really bad guys. Chris O'Donnell, LL Cool J and their team should deliver solid numbers for CBS Tuesday and strengthen the night. It's essentially the guaranteed hit of the season.
