NCIS: Sydney – Brother In Arms – TV Review

TL;DR – There is nothing quite like a shark to ratchet up the tension in the water. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 3.5 out of 5. Disclosure – I paid for the Paramount+ service that viewed this series. NCIS: Sydney Review – If you ask someone about Australia, the first thing they will likely mention is the wildlife and how it wants to kill you all. In reality, as long as you take some sensible precautions,…

[ncisfranchise-source]

It sounds like we’re definitely going to want a second season of the first international version of NCIS.

Sydney Season 1 has, in the first half, already had two cases that are linked to the arc that will take us through the finale, as showrunner Morgan O’Neill told TV Insider. But before then, there’s a hostage situation at a dog cafe, emotional reveals, and more. Below, series star Olivia Swann, who plays NCIS Special Agent Michelle Mackey, offers a preview. Plus, watch the video above for her dream NCIS crossover.

The next episode sees the team racing to save Doc Roy (William McInnes) and his dog when they’re involved in a hostage situation. What can you preview? It doesn’t sound like their typical case.

Olivia Swann: No, it’s not a typical case. It’s very high-octane. Obviously there’s a literal ticking clock going where they have to very quickly on their feet think of how to fix a situation. Actually, JD (Todd Lasance) takes the lead on it, and so he’s very much in there, which then also puts another member of their team in the firing line. So it’s a race against the clock to figure it all out and put the pieces together and hopefully save all of these people that are trapped in a doggy cafe.

And then that’s just more for Mackey to deal with if she has two people from her team in danger.

Yeah, it’s never good to put Mackey’s team in danger because she will come for you.

The first and third episodes’ cases are connected to this ongoing arc that showrunner Morgan O’Neill said will go through the finale. What can you preview about what’s coming up?

There are a couple of twists and turns and reveals and all fun things like that, but it does all get kind of sewn together, and by the end of the season, we start getting a really big scope of what actually has been going on throughout the whole season. It accumulates in a very intense, very explosive, very heartbreaking way. I’m so excited for it to air because there’s some really, really cool stuff coming up.

Something that Mackey and JD can agree on is how much they don’t like Rankin (Lewis Fitz-Gerald). So when are they going to cross paths next and how are they going to have to make adjustments in how they deal with him?

I think they’re kind of always on their toes when it comes to Rankin. He always just seems to be there and he doesn’t seem to want to help them or he doesn’t seem to like them. I think he is the kind of character that [has us questioning], is he the good guy? Is he the bad guy? We just don’t know, and they don’t know. And so they may have to put their grievances aside and maybe accept his help if he offers it, but I don’t think they will ever get onto terms of being friends at all.

Who are we going to see her being the most vulnerable with going forward this season?

It’s probably Frank [from Episode 4].

That was it?

Yeah, that was it. But I do think towards the end of the season, another character has to deal with a lot of intense stuff and that definitely affects Mackey, but maybe we don’t see the full extent of that.

I’m thinking that could be Doc Roy, because there was that moment about him being sad in Episode 3 and he said it was because Blue (Mavournee Hazel) thought she was leaving, but there was more to that, right?

There sure is. It is definitely something we will see more of in the coming episodes, but actually it’s not necessarily revealed to Mackey.

Their dynamic has been great since they met and he asked if she’s “of the CSI,” then her reaction…

He’s just fantastic. He’s a very kind of grumbly, curmudgeonly guy, but William just plays it so well and you can’t help but love that and respond to that. And I think that’s what Mackey does. Initially, she probably thinks he’s just some kind of old man, but there is a side of respect that she has for him, which I love.

When are we going to get some good Mackey and Evie (Tuuli Narkle) scenes?

Good question. In a future episode, we see Mackey have to deal with Evie’s choices, the fallout of those.

Where does the season end for Mackey in the sense of, would we see a different Mackey in a second season? Would she be open to being more vulnerable with the rest of the team based on how the season ends?

I think she would, and I think she would have to be, because it definitely ramps up in a way where it becomes so intense and I feel like the situation shifts everyone on a personal level and I don’t think they would enter into, hopefully, a second season being the same. There’s no way, based on what happens. It’s too huge, and it is too impactful for them to still be the same kind of team.

What are you enjoying most about filming the series?

The cast, hands down, I adore every single one of them so much. We formed the most incredible bond. Every day on set was just full of laughter. I actually have really deep laugh lines now because I genuinely laughed every single day. Of course, working with Todd so closely on so many scenes, he just became like a brother to me and I can’t actually pass up the opportunity to sing his praises because he is not only a fantastic actor, but he’s just so unbelievably kind and enthusiastic. And I think JD and actually Todd by extent is the heart of the team. He brings just so much honesty and truth to what he does, and it’s just an honor to share the space with him and the rest of the cast.

One of my favourite sci-fi movies OF ALL TIME is now twenty years old.  The movie that broke Vin Diesel into the big time and gave him his very best role - granted, he’s most well known for Fast & Furious’ Dom Toretto, but for me and many others he will always be Riddick.    Here’s to twenty years of this awesomeness ...

WARNING!  Once again, major spoiler warning for those who haven’t seen it ...

BREAKER MORANT (1980) Grade: B

Kinda like the Australian's 12 Angry Men or A Few Good Men. Thought the editing was excellent, great cuts that helped the tension.

NCIS: Sydney – Blonde Ambition & Full Season 1 – TV Review

TL;DR – They may have saved the best for last with a banger of a season finale. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4 out of 5. Disclosure – I paid for the Paramount+ service that viewed this series. Well, we have come to the end of the first season of NCIS: Sydney. It has been an odd season, with moments of highs and also a lot of frustrations. However, things started to coalesce towards the end, and I wondered if…

[ncisfranchise-source]

What do you think of when you hear the word Australia? “If you speak to anyone around the world, one of the first things they talk to you about is that everything can kill you,” cracks Morgan O’Neill, executive producer of NCIS: Sydney, originally developed to stream on Paramount+ Australia but too good for CBS to pass up. O’Neill then lists (with clear Oz pride) his native land’s deadly snakes, the spider that “makes the black widow look like a lamb” and, of course, crocs.

Two-legged baddies aren’t in short supply, either, on this fifth entry in the massively successful military crime franchise. Smugglers, drug dealers, and the like are in the crosshairs of the eclectic new team led by NCIS Special Agent Michelle Mackey (Olivia Swann). “She’s very hot-blooded,” Swann says. “It’s her way or the highway.” In the November 14 opener — the first of eight episodes — Mackey was serving as an agent afloat when a U.S. Navy sailor died in Sydney Harbour. To solve that case, she was partnered with savvy sergeant JD Dempsey (Todd Lasance) of the Australian Federal Police (similar to the FBI). “He loves banter, but he’s also a fierce operator,” says Lasance. (He and his costar spoke about the series earlier this year.)

They first got on like, well, two wrestling crocodiles. “You have the might of the American military and this proud, plucky, antiauthoritarian Australian facing off,” O’Neill says. Still, their successful joint investigation (which ended thrillingly with Mackey commandeering a chopper and swooping over Sydney Harbour to chase the perps) results in the formation of a new office: NCIS Sydney.

“With Sydney, we have a unique opportunity the other franchises didn’t — to see these guys on Day 1, establishing this team,” O’Neill says. “They end up being a good fit. JD works under Mackey, but in some ways runs the team while Mackey is freed to approach things in a maverick way. You’re going to see team building, bonding, and cracking — what people do when they’re forced to trust one another.”

Their unit counterparts are a chill American agent who trained as a lawyer, DeShawn Jackson (Sean Sagar), and AFP liaison officer Constable Evie Cooper (Tuuli Narkle), who teases him nonstop. “It’s a really Australian way of showing affection,” O’Neill says. On November 28, they go undercover as an engaged couple in an investigation that begins when a shark spits out an arm wearing U.S. Navy gear.

Clues come via a new set of NCIS geniuses: anxious forensic scientist Bluebird “Blue” Gleeson (Mavournee Hazel), who, despite her brains, has impostor syndrome, and AFP forensic pathologist Roy Penrose (William McInnes), who’s given up on life for reasons that will be revealed. “Blue reanimates Doc Roy’s emotional beating heart. He pretends to be curmudgeonly. But when she walks into the room, his world lights a little bit,” O’Neill says.

Blue pulls evidence from the mysterious arm’s dive wrist computer that leads to the start of a longer story arc. “There might be something nefarious going on,” O’Neill says. “While NCIS is wrestling order from chaos, this other organization is trying to wrestle chaos from order. They’re working to undermine the security of the special relationship [between America and Australia], the stability of the region.” U.S. Department of Defense attaché Richard Rankin (Lewis Fitz-Gerald) is already prompting questions: “Is he a good guy, a bad guy, just hard to read?” O’Neill says.

  This isn’t the first musical to mine Romeo & Julietfor material, but it’s certainly the funniest.  The setting, such as it is, is Victorian London.  Two rival businesses both alike in indignity, one mending shoes, the other making keys, give rise to a pair of young lovers.  You know the rest – or you might think you…
