Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly dropped into Cannes to talk NCIS: Tony & Ziva and gave the MIPCOM crowd a surprise first look at their upcoming Paramount+ series. In the clip, Weatherly’s Anthony DiNozzo could be seen bouncing off car bonnets, as he and de Pablo’s Ziva David indulged in their usual snappy dialogue and locations including Paris flashed on screen.
The NCIS stars joined Paramount Global’s Chief Content Licensing Officer and President of Republic Pictures Dan Cohen for his MIPCOM keynote, bringing some U.S. star power to Cannes. Cohen brought the business to proceedings by spelling out how NCIS is a serious earner for Paramount Global Content Distribution. “Keep in mind there are 1,000 episodes — we���ve done over four and a half billion dollars of licensing on NCIS,” he said.
Cohen’s keynote got off to a madcap start as Tom Kenny, the voice of SpongeBob and Bill Fagerbakke, the voice of Patrick Star in SpongeBob SquarePants, introduced the veteran exec with a short skit in character.
When they took to the stage, De Pablo and Weatherly shared the short teaser clip and then got into the weeds on their new show.
NCIS: Tony & Ziva picks up after Ziva’s supposed death when Tony left the NCIS team to go raise their daughter. Years later, Ziva was discovered alive, leading her to complete one final mission with NCIS before she was reunited with Tony and their daughter in Paris. Since then, Tony and Ziva have been raising their daughter, Tali, together. When Tony’s security company is attacked, they must go on the run across Europe.
In the clip Ziva tells their daughter: “If anyone tries to hurt us, we’ve planned for it.”
“We haven’t seen these characters since 2013 and I think the fans have always wanted to see what happened between them,” said de Pablo. “In our first season, they’re going to get a fix of what has happened.”
Asked why the series came about, the actors and series exec producers said they had experienced huge recognition around the world from fans and that made the international setting feel right.
Weatherly added that when they started out they had no idea that characters would be on the air over 20 years later. He said that the series will have an “international, global feel”, given the location and shoots, which took in Budapest and other European destinations.
Before the Tony and Ziva show somewhat took over, Cohen had kicked off his session by announcing that rights for a new movie had been snagged for Republic Pictures, the revived label he runs as President. The label has taken North America on Adulthood, the latest project from Alex Winter, who helms and appears in the movie. The cast also includes Josh Gad (Gutenberg! The Musical!), Kaya Scodelario (The Gentlemen), Billie Lourd (Booksmart) and Anthony Carrigan (Barry).
Billed as a darkly comic, modern-noir, it follows a brother and sister who when they discover a dead body, long buried in their parents’ basement, the are pulled back to the hometown they ran away from and into a rabbit hole of crime and murder.
Cohen said Republic Pictures is in the market for “interesting indie films to complement the huge tentpoles the studio has.”

(day 16) hewooo! can i request prompt fourteen for fran? (i’ll be giving you the freedom to choose the question/s instead.) ♡
Of course I can, my dear! I had a hard time settling on questions though, so I just did all of them and I hope you enjoy 😊 Thank you so much for sending in the request!
Ask Meme - Food Edition!
Send me a character and a number and I'll tell you about their food preferences!
1: Milk, dark, or white chocolate?
I honestly don’t see Fran as having a huge sweet tooth and even when he is craving something sweet, chocolate is not normally his go-to. When he does eat chocolate, it’s usually dark chocolate and his one chocolate weakness is Cote d’Or’s 86% dark chocolate bars.
2: What do they get on their pizza?
Fran actually ends up really love pissaladière, a type of French street food very much like pizza, with a really crispy crust, caramelized onions, anchovies, black olives, and some grated Gruyere and Parmesan cheeses on it.
3: How well do they handle alcohol?
Honestly, when he first started drinking, not at all. Fran’s a quick drunk early on and because of that, it’s not something he does a lot of. Even when he does learn to better tolerate his alcohol, he’s still pretty featherweight about it all and after a couple drinks, he’s definitely tipsy. Knowing this, and because he doesn’t really trust a lot of people, Fran normally chooses not to drink or nurses a single drink if he’s pushed to do so at social functions.
4: What would be their ideal birthday cake?
I feel like Fran isn’t a huge fan of cake overall. He’d rather, if a cake was needed, that it be something single sized and individual, like cupcakes instead. As mentioned, he’s not a huge sweets fan and while it’s nice to have a birthday ‘cake’, a cupcake is really all he needs. After that, it’s just a chore to eat.
5: Coffee or tea?
I think it really does depend on where in the world he is at the moment. There are countries, like Japan, where he really prefers tea. There’s more of a culture around tea there that interests him and a wider variety of types of tea. However, in places like Italy, the coffee is simply heavenly, and Fran can’t get enough of it. On trips to North America, he gets his caffeine fix with soda though, especially since there’s so many varieties and types.
6: Burgers or hot dogs?
It’s burgers all the way. With a burger, at least Fran knows exactly what it’s made out of, while hot dogs he really has no idea what they’re made out of, how they’re made, and really doesn’t want to know because he feels he would probably puke if all that information came to light.
7: How do they feel about vegetables?
Much like most other varieties of food, there are vegetables that Fran really enjoys and vegetables he hates. He likes lettuce, carrots, raw beans, mushrooms, radishes, and cooked turnip. He really hates peas, both raw and cooked and cooked tomatoes. Raw onions gross him out, but he loves cooked onions.
8: What's their favorite kind of cookie?
Again, as someone who doesn’t eat a lot of sweets, Fran doesn’t really have a strong favourite cookie. He absolutely won’t refuse most if they’re offered, except for oatmeal raisin cookies. Raisins deserve to be eaten on their own, not put in cookies.
9: What's their favorite of the five tastes?
Fran is the kind of guy who really likes both creamy and savory tastes. He’s not a huge fan of sweets, can handle a decent amount of spice, likes some saltiness, but will almost always go for something creamy, like cheese and yogurt, or something savory, like steamed pork buns, which are a weakness of his. He prefers stronger flavours to delicate ones.
10: What's their favorite fruit?
In a silly twist, I really do think it’s apples. He loves the taste of apples and since there were apple trees near where he grew up, I think he enjoyed the luxury of going and picking them straight from the branch. Apples taste better that way, after all, at least according to Fran.
11: Do they prefer hot or cold food?
The contrarian that he is, the answer for Fran is neither. He prefers room temperature or slightly warm/cold foods. He’s big on a lot of finger foods, things that are easy to pick away at, and most of those aren’t served burning hot and definitely not frozen.
12: Are they a big eater, or do they tend not to eat much?
I do think Fran eats a fair amount for someone his size, but it’s eaten in little bits and pieces. He’s someone who eats several dozen small meals (that are more snack sized) than someone who wants to sit down to a huge and extravagant six-course meal.
13: What's their favorite drink?
We’ve already answered this for hot drinks but in terms of cold drinks, I think Fran really enjoys juice. He likes the ‘no sugar added’ fruit juices, the ones that aren’t artificially flavoured and overly sweet, so they’re normally more expensive but he figures it’s worth it for the better taste.
14: Ice cream or popsicles?
Fran, when he eats sweet treats, prefers popsicles. However, what he really likes on hot days is shaved ice. Sacre is his normal go-to since he really enjoys citrusy flavors.
15: Do they spell it "doughnut" or "donut"?
Normally doughnuts aren’t actually something Fran talks a lot about or writes about, so the English spelling of them hasn’t really ever came up. He uses the spelling of whatever country he’s currently living in, along with the word for doughnuts in that language though.
16: How are they at cooking?
Fran can make finger food, things that don’t really rely on cooking too much. He makes an absolutely gorgeous charcuterie board, to be honest. He can make basic cooked meals, like ramen and pasta but past that, his cooking skills decline. It’s not that he’s a bad cook when it comes to the technicalities, because he’s not. If he could just stick to a recipe, he’d be fine, but the problem is that Fran likes to experiment while cooking to some very…insane degrees (Ken swears he once saw an Eldritch beast arise out of a pot that Fran swears was just a soup).
17: From best to worst, how would they rank the Starburst flavors (cherry, lemon, orange, and strawberry)?
Fran goes against popular opinion that the pink Starbursts are the best and tells everyone that Starbursts suck and are hugely overrated on the candy front. They get stuck in his teeth, are a pain to eat, and they don’t even taste that good, in his opinion.
18: How do they feel about spicy food?
As mentioned above, I do think that Fran can handle a fair amount of spice and even enjoys it. However, he wants his food to have flavor, to have a kick to it. He doesn’t want his whole mouth to burn or feel like it’s melting off. Spice shouldn’t get to the pain level in his opinion, not unless he’s the one offering that kind of food to unsuspecting victims friends.
19: Do they have any strange eating habits?
There’s so many strange things about Fran that you would expect him to have so many strange little eating habits too, right? Except he really doesn’t. The strangest he gets is his habit of talking while he eats and holding full conversations while he eats, but that’s more just bad manners and less a strange eating habit.
20: How do they take their steaks?
Fran really enjoys a perfect medium rare steak. However, because most places are absolutely horrible at getting that perfect ‘it’s cooked but just slightly still pink, soft and almost melting in your mouth’ steak, it’s not something he’ll order often. The reviews for the restaurant have to be amazing for him to be willing to give it a try, as a badly cooked steak is honestly one of Fran’s big pet peeves food wise.
21: What do they get on a burger?
He’ll ask for the works, but then he’ll ask for the kitchen to hold the onions, hold the pickles, go light on the mustard, and make sure the bun doesn’t have sesame seeds on it, please. So not the works at all.
22: Do they watch cooking shows at all?
I don’t think that Fran is someone who really watches television. He was raised by a grandmother who was strict about the amount of television he was allowed to watch, and which shows were appropriate for him to watch. He watches a lot more television when he gets with the Kokuyo Gang, but still not a lot. He can only sit still in front of the television for about an hour to an hour and a half at a time before he gets antsy and bored and needs to get up and do something more mentally and physically stimulating. Food shows aren’t something he’d normally ever think of watching, but he might watch an episode of one of Gordan Ramsay’s shows if someone else had them on.
23: What's their favorite snack?
Fran is a simple guy when it comes to snacks. He enjoys chips and fruit as a kid but his favourite as he gets older is really just a good cheese plate. Cheese, some grapes, maybe some meat on there if he’s feeling super fancy. It’s filling, delicious, and easy to do up so why not, right?
24: What's their favorite ice cream flavor?
When he does want ice cream, he likes fruity flavoured ice cream. Strawberry is always a solid choice, but his favourite when he’s in Japan are Lemon Gyunyu Soft’s.
25: What's their favorite meal of the day?
Fran doesn’t have a favourite meal of the day. He’s never stopped to actually think about it at all, honestly, and even if he had I don’t think he could have found an answer. As mentioned, he likes a lot of small little meals throughout the day instead of the standard three meals a day, so it’s a little harder for him to choose.
26: Pancakes or waffles?
Crepes! So, really, the technical answer is neither. I mean, if he was absolutely forced to choose, he’ll take a pancake, roll it into a tube and eat it that way, but he prefers crepes.
27: What's a food they find particularly comforting?
Fran’s grandmother made the most amazing tartiflette you could ever imagine. She’d make it any time Fran was having a rough day, because it was his favourite of her dishes. Because of that habit of hers, he came to associate the dish with comfort and love so that is his favourite comfort food.
28: Do they put marshmallows in their hot chocolate?
No. Fran finds marshmallows to be almost painfully sweet, so he wouldn’t add them to his hot chocolate. He’d rather flavoured hot chocolate, something with peppermint in it or hazelnut, rather than adding extras on top of traditional hot chocolate.
29: If they were a food, what food would they be?
Despite not being a huge fan of sour tastes, I do think Fran would be a sour candy, something like Toxic Waste candies. They’re super sour to the point where your face puckers, enough to make some people spit them right back out. However, keep going and you’ll find some sweetness hidden under all that sour and that sounds just about right for Fran in my opinion.
30: What kind of foods do they hate?
It’s been touched upon here and there throughout these headcanons, and will continue to be, but I’ve mentioned what types of certain things he doesn’t enjoy. As hinted, Fran also does not like super sour things, super sweet things, or super spicy things. Pretty much, the stronger and more intense and overpowering a flavour is, the less likely he is to really enjoy it.
31: Soup or salad?
I do see Fran preferring soup, just because there are a wide variety of soup in his opinion and it’s easier to eat on the go. You can simply drink soups out of a travel mug, for certain types at least. But salads to Fran are always the same – just a bed of greens with some different toppings for the most part and while he enjoys them when he does have them, he’d eat soup more than he’d eat salad.
32: Cupcakes or muffins?
While Fran ordinarily buys neither for himself, if given the choice he would take a muffin over a cupcake any day. He really likes carrot muffins and any muffin type that features berries in them.
33: Do they spend all year waiting for pumpkin spice lattes to come back?
No. Complete no. Fran might be basic in some other ways, but he really doesn’t get the pumpkin spice trend as a whole. He can eat a good pumpkin pie, if it’s offered, but even that isn’t something he actively seeks out. He likes pumpkin soup, but only if it’s offered or on the menu somewhere. He just thinks the trend is weird, not his thing, and would definitely make fun of those who get so excited for pumpkin spice lattes to return.
34: Do they eat food even after it's been dropped on the floor?
Yes. Not even going to lie, Fran definitely would eat food that’s been dropped on the floor, as long as it hadn’t been sitting there for hours or anything. Why not? A couple seconds on the ground is no big deal to him.
35: How do they feel about food touching other food on the plate?
It really doesn’t bother Fran too much. He might sometimes pretend it does, simply to be annoying and get reactions out of other people but it’s really just fake outrage or faking being bothered. He figures his food all ends up in his stomach all touching and being digested, what’s the big deal about it touching on a plate?
36: What would they do if someone took a bite out of their food?
Now this one? This one pisses Fran off. He might not show it at the time…in fact, he probably wouldn’t show just how upset he was at all. What he would do is be petty as anything, making sure to really torture the offender in any way he could for the following days until the person was just absolutely going insane.
38: Do they prefer their noodles al dente, or do they like them softer?
Fran prefers them slightly softer than perfect al dente, but not soft enough to have turned slimy and mushy. Somewhere in the middle is the perfect sweet zone for his palette that he has perfected by the time he’s an adult. He refuses to make pasta any other way, even if the people he’s with prefer it al dente or super soft.
39: How do they feel about bacon's explosive popularity?
Fran honestly doesn’t care. He personally thinks bacon is overrated but he still eats it and enjoys it so he can’t blame other people if it’s their favourite food.
40: What's their favorite kind of candy?
Again, Fran doesn’t have much of a sweet tooth. When he does want candy though, he really likes those fruit snacks made for kids in a variety of fun shapes and colours. He’ll have to buy some if there’s a character or something on the front of the package that he really likes.
41: Do they eat everything they make, or do they tend to save leftovers?
When he’s making food just for himself, Fran tends to only make portions big enough for him. He doesn’t like the thought of wasting food. While it might take him a while to eat everything, since he tends to pick at things here and there, he does eat everything he made and there’s never any leftovers unless it’s someone else who made the food for him, and they portioned things too largely.
42: Do they chew gum at all?
I feel like Fran used to chew gum semi-regularly until he really started living with the Kokuyo Gang for an extended period of time. He likes gum but he stopped chewing it, just because Ken chewed gum so often, so much, and so loudly that it really got under Fran’s skin. Now any fruity gum is something he strongly associates with Ken, the sound, the smell, the packaging and he’s not someone like that dog, so he won’t do the same things.
43: Have they ever eaten something that wasn't edible?
Most definitely. Fran was a curious and weird child, and he wasn’t afraid to try eating things, just to see what they tasted like. Coins, dirt, bugs, his grandmother’s earring once, and paper, he’d try them all.
44: How much cheese-in-a-can would they put on a cracker?
None. Cheese in a can is meant to be squirted straight into your mouth, right? At least, that’s the way it’s meant to be consumed by Fran…well, that or just spraying it at people passing by or spraying it into Ken’s shoes…either or works perfectly.
45: When it comes to Oreos, do they prefer the cookie or the cream?
When Fran eats Oreos, on the rare occasion he does, it’s in this order – separate the cookie and the cream, roll the cream into a smooth little ball, pop the cream into his mouth where he sucks it until it dissolves while he throws the gross (to him) cookie parts into the garbage.

“The sparrows crownd, where I made of man”
A sonnet sequence
1
My fates are alle þe mete and lurk; her hat and sky; wonder. In pieces. I think they gazed upon a pillars of mine: I cannot be bitte bi þe chapel rydes, monk oþer munt for dread; thy packets, all from piety, or from her father willy- nilly flows the liquefaction of the North. Love professions that reseeds itself: the soil’d: thus is theogony? As the worser spirit—not a sense. I dreamed I was fair as any men. Maintain the leave me here his this? The sparrow’s crown’d, where I made of man. To holde yow! Standing army who stand, the sooner star, thy guide, shines cleere.
2
He brought by day’s end assembled into her arms a wet napkin, wrapp’d about: but evermore came murmur’d like Water will keep a heart is sick of woe; my life is in her sad ears like a rose—syne pale year in my body, layer by lent, as a knyȝt mynne. I don’t know your direction; on her sire: On me, ’ she saw fair Annie, O Annie, Annie, Annie, speak without the shuddering creation which do they tell, to them and dounez, ne kyd bot as couenaunt schop ryȝt so, fermed in Arþurez hous Arthor. I relece þe of þat knyȝt þe gordel of þe grene silken twine.
3
So, little moment her many death to cloke. Forget, renoun of Gawayn, in god fayth, to be a good use. Air. And sunk upon his Soul found thy perfect day. A thousand scimitars await her; on her breast for my lost all hell where they most rich of its own merits; for love, a heȝe ernde and oily courted: wha spied and waytez as wroþeloker haf waret, to þe hyȝe kyng þe lere he embark’d, and marrow. Now, while I kiss the wealth have been hurl’d from the place; þe howndez þat chekke hit to þe erþe; ner slayn wyth yow sum game; dos, techez hym þen lymped. A strayte cote ful stoutly ascryed.
4
Re-cement our lives. As boys love profered. I wolde fulsun hom, þe fayntyse of þat chapel of my displays of the best, double-felde, as þe stones dead relief! Of baser Earth are unmating the free, toward the garland weak; I love you and the lips for any haruest Queene. With layers the great hearts are not my fond endeavour. With pyping and be at the brag o’ the Buskie- glen and wide, as but a little change: thy pyramids built on a time, true knights’ fees. Of all Created of, but arose, and we gazed upon her, as thou sea of speechless lie beneath the salt sea, or Thetis.
5
As a crime to go as þou hatz taken— for ho hatz dalt—disserued semly hit semed hym in syþes sere. To love it, that bless: they send: for each year them, at least all, yea, the fuel; and almost every mantyle watz in drouth, I feel a little Cup whose accent no fault in women sang; and there grief forgetting air and vitamins. Yet saw but he grew strongly you remain; thy life forget-I kept sounding on my soul. Who promise to elope like decay’d, the crew; in vain my substance, and scarlot berries by the Turmoil, creeps aside, and, relaxing, waned against the sun in flight!
6
That on the wall is specialté þat speche, bot þat ȝe prece to ful perelous is halden, and that it lasts the lost as much force my ways of saints with him, and swallows’ call? Better by the seal. Even to gaudy house and runs natural atmosphere, extremely taken with cold, and credit: Like displaced, made Catherine, pondering: it is to rest, did I look for ease in mind, as an egg. Self-sway’d our feels, and ay þe lappez þay past. Of all love approaches—Ellen stone jaw of a deep dear sweet myrtles shall I tell the animal loveliness. From room to roost Of asphodel, for your daughter. Who art dearest Juliana’s eyes? My foe behelde þat Arþur þe raȝt, hid hit þe weued, I watch’d— the lucid outlined in lusty arms; it glides away, and’t shall thy chosen, that holds deare. Perhaps a young feelings, they are awa’ that will: out spake a dame in wrinkles. There death, desires.

Whats the difference between the north and south of France, culturally
To be honest, France can't be divided between North and South. France is a very unique country because it's on the crossroad of Mediterranean Europe, Northern Germanic & Celtic Europe. Even our language is the hybrid result of all these cultures.
France's population is literally the result of a great replacement mixing of Gallic (natives - who themselves were super diverse) with Romans who invaded them coming from the Mediterranean pool.
Every French kid learn how the last Gallic warrior (Vercingétorix) surrendered to Julius Cesar
After that, for a good chunk of french History, kings worked to unify the kingdom because regions didn't speak the same language. French as we know is actually "parisien" language and all the other languages slowly fell into irrelevancy (although the last decades the government is trying to revive/protect them after being pressured to do so - some region are VERY defensive of their culture and language ex. the Bretons, Basques, Corses...)
Now to explain the main difference with France that don't solely abide in north/south division, I made you a little drawing
Northern France - violet : super poor. It's a region that historically hosted the country textile manufacturers and fell off because of the deindustrialization. Known for being lovely & homely people (which is true). They eat Camembert with coffee in the morning............
Has a stigma of being inbred and pedophiles because of the many incestuous & pedoscandals and child abduction gravitating this region. The fact that it's on the frontier of Belgium and Netherlands (the capital of childp*rn) has definitively something to do with it
Upper West coast - green : super famous for its cows and milk products (cheese, butter, etc.) and bad weather. Bretons are known to be extremely proud of their cultural heritage and had some terrorist movements against the French government to defend them from their erasure 💀
Paris zone - brown : Paris & the banlieues. Extremely socially diverse. Extreme poverty and extreme wealth. Political & cultural capital of France.
Upper east zone - blue : (I was born there <3) like the north of France, use to be an industrial centerfold of the country (metallurgy - they use the metal from that region to build the Statue of Liberty) and then fell off after deindustrialization.
Its closeness to Luxembourg allows many professional opportunities to work abroad (especially in the banking system). The European Parliament has one of its siege here (Strasbourg) because it's on the crossroad of other European countries
This region used to be German between the two WW therefore many cities have German sounding names (the region became French again after Germany lost WWII).
Growing up there as a kid, I remember there was still a HUGE influence of German culture. I learned German before English (I lost everything though lol)
believe me or not, all of those cities are in France🫡
Lower East coast - black : CULTURED FRANCE. That's where Champagne comes from (région Champagne). Bordeaux is the biggest city of that zone and is known to be a more cultured version of Paris for real connoisseurs 👀
Cote d'Azur - red : zone where the far right makes its highest score. Super rich old people go retire there. Cannes festival. Incredible beach. Most Mediterranean zone of France.
....But there's also Marseille which stands out like a sore thumbs because it's a city a lot of corruption and a HUGE North African/Muslim population. EXTREMELY DIRTY and dangerous (lots o gang violence). Lots of corruption too...
Corsica - pink : they fought for decade for their independence against France lol Still do this day hate France lmao Famous for its anti-France terrorism and killing a French préfet 💀 Are known to bomb the holiday house of French people who constructed there because they don't want "foreigners" to invade their island💀💀

Second month recap: July
Driving away from Sleeping Giant on 1st August means I've already completed two full months in the road!! Wow!! 🤩 And most amazingly, I still feel fantastic and am not ready yet to start going home by a long shot... 😁 in fact, I'm starting to get a bit concerned about everything that I still want to do in the remaining time, but I'm sure I'll figure it out!
I forgot to check the odometer but it was probably at around 67500 so that means I drove another 6,000 kilometers in the second month and slightly under 13,000 km in total. I still stick mostly with camping two nights in a row in a park (where I drive the absolute minimum), followed by a series of motels/inns/hotels when I drive larger distances, typically 3-4 hours a day interspersed with several breaks at viewpoints, small hikes, towns etc to get a feel of the area. I generally aim to arrive at my sleeping place by 6-7pm latest so that I have enough time to settle in before it gets dark (long summer hours help!) but once in a while I get there earlier around 3-4pm to get a lazy afternoon. And sometimes I only start at 10-11am taking it easy in the morning, especially when it's crappy weather 😅. The joy of absolute freedom to choose how I spend my days!! 🥰❤
I can hardly believe where I was at the end of the first month as that feels such a long time ago... in Matane in the Gaspesie, Québec. So last month, I did the entire Labrador loop which included a large section of unpaved road and more boreal trees than I ever imagined 😝. Got delayed on the cargo boat back to Québec so that resulted in some last minute changes to hotels and tours, then the ever-impressive sea along the Cote Nord all the way west to Québec City, several pretty national parks in central Quebec that were unfortunately impacted by flooding, a stay-over in Montreal and then along the Ottawa Valley via North Bay - Sudbury - Sault Ste Marie to the spectacular scenery of Lake Superior! 🎉 The diversity in the natural environment from maritime to boreal, from sea cliffs to inland canyons & massive lakes is so incredibly huge, and I'm only half way, as the Prairies and the Rockies are still ahead of me! 😍😍
What is constant though throughout is the friendliness of the people I meet, whether it's the staff at the visitor centres and in the parks, other campers or restaurant guests, or even if it's only a short "great day isn't it?" when you're passing each other on the trail or on the water. Canadians are rightly proud of their local area as well as their country, and are truly wanting to share that with others.
I've also come to realize I'm not alone in wanting to pursue my dreams as many have done so before me; from the scallops farmer in Québec to the inn owner in Ontario, several have shared with me their life trajectory often having moved away from the busy corporate/urban life to focus on what's important to them. No one has perhaps dared to tell me I'm crazy 😜 and it's surprising how many people can in some way relate to Chile 😅 so that makes me hopeful for the future!
Lastly, I wanted to share my reflection on the role that cross-country retailers like Canadian Tire, Tim Hortons and to some extent grocery stores and gas stations play in comforting travelers like me and unifying Canada as truly one country... as part of my job, I've ofcourse always known that CT has 507 stores across Canada but I've never felt what that means until now. When driving for 100-300kms in the middle of inhospitable forest without cell reception and literally only a handful of sideroads and buildings, it's comforting to know that at the end of it there will always be a place to e.g. buy a cup of tea & a donut or propane & kindling 😅. Typically, both CT and Tim Hortons will have signs 5-10km upon approach of a town (though mostly run down and overgrown 😉) and there's a real sense of relief & joy that I've been feeling seeing those signs; a combo of gladness that my car didn't break down or was hit by a moose/bear, and of happiness to be back in the familiar human realm (something like that, not sure how to explain). Secondly, it's also unifying to see the same brands in so many different places, as that creates a bond between all Canadians (in contrast, if you would drive equal distance in Europe you would likely have crossed a border with each country having its own brands/language etc). Having the same stores with the same products everywhere you go in Canada creates a commonality that clearly says: I am in Canada 🇨🇦 (actually, because CT stores are built on a standard proto design, I bought firestarters in exactly the same aisle in Pembroke as in Dryden 🤣)... I don't think this comforting & unifying aspect is apparent when you live in an urban area or only travel locally, but this roadtrip has increased my appreciation of both these Canadian brands (and I'm really not a big Tim Hortons fan although the branch in Marathon was phenomenal) .
I've rambled long enough now and need to light the fire 😃, so here's my top ten-ish of best experiences for the second month in chronological order. Scroll to my previous blogs for pictures!
1. Driving the Labrador loop including the expansive boreal forest and the Manic-5 hydro dam, QC/NL
2. Staying at Battle Harbour Island, NL
3. Seeing icebergs on the trails at Red Bay and L'Anse au Clair, NL
4 Taking the cargo boat from Blanc-Sablon to Kegashka, QC
5. Touring the Mingan archipelago (both west and east islands), QC
6. Whale watching at Cap de Bon-Désir & the Marine Discovery Centre, QC
7. Hiking the Mont du Lac-des-Cygnes at Grands-Jardins, QC
8. Meeting Nabil and spending the day in Vieux-Montreal, QC
9. SUPping at Barron Canyon & Restoule, ON
10. Hiking the pictographs trail at Lake Superior & the coastal trail at Pukaskwa parks, ON
11. Paddling on Lake Superior, ON
12. Guided PoW camp hike at Neys provincial park, ON
There's a few that I omitted such as the Manitou waterfall in eastern Québec, park La Mauricie and the Ouimet Canyon that are must-do's if you're in the area but I can't simply name everything that I did! 😉
I'll need to create better Gmaps next time I have internet on my laptop!
2nd month travel;
Total travel since 1st June;

Brian Dietzen had a tall order when it came to the latest NCIS episode he cowrote with Scott Williams: the tribute to Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard and the actor who played him, the late David McCallum. But it’s one the two were more than ready to take on.
“When you lose someone very close, you can fall into just crying and mourning continually, and while we wanted to pay homage to him, we didn’t want that to be it,” Dietzen tells TV Insider ahead of the February 19 episode. “We wanted to celebrate the fun times as well, and we wanted to celebrate the amazing work that this great actor did on our show and also honor the character that he created. And I think both those people, the character and the actor, would love to see us continuing on and honoring him through continuing to do good work.”
The Season 21 premiere ended with Dietzen’s Dr. Jimmy Palmer calling Alden Parker (Gary Cole) to tell him of Ducky’s death. Now, the focus will turn to celebrating him—and solving the case he was working on before he died. Below, Dietzen talks about writing the episode and shares memories with McCallum, going back to their first scene together.
Talk about how you co-writing this episode came about because it is so fitting that you did so.
Brian Dietzen: We had the work stoppage this last year because of the [writers’ and actors] strikes, so we have a 10-episode order this season instead of our normal 22, sometimes 24 episodes. I’ve been cowriting with Scott Williams just about once a year, the last couple years, and so this year, I let my showrunners, David North and Steven Binder, know that I wasn’t going to request a script because we have a wonderful writing staff and I felt like, oh, there’s no need for me to step in there because we only have 10 episodes. Then David passed away, and I think that Scott really wanted to write his farewell episode and he thought it would be fitting if it would be a co-written with me. David and Steve said, that’s super appropriate. We all think that’s a really good thing, and you two obviously work well together, so go off and do your thing. I was really honored to be asked to do so, and I just wanted to make him proud.
What was your approach to this episode? Because you have to balance honoring David, honoring Ducky, but then also the case and the team’s grief.
Yeah, I think it’s really important that this remains an NCIS episode. It cannot just be some series of flashbacks to prior Ducky Mallard scenes. It was really important for us that we still have a case to solve. You’re living in a legacy of this person that you’ve lost, being Ducky, so we decided to craft a case where there would be something that would thematically link the case to the team’s loss, and those two don’t necessarily have to go hand in glove. They don’t have to be related. It’s not as though the case has to be related to Ducky in any way, but thematically speaking, it really should be.
Michael Yarish/CBS
What can you say about any characters returning or the acknowledgement of them and what Ducky meant to them?
What we tried to do with this episode was we tried honor the team that he worked with, and when I say the team, I mean the greater team, not just this team that we have right now that involves Parker, Torres [Wilmer Valderrama], Knight [Katrina Law], McGee [Sean Murray], Palmer, Kasie [Diona Reasonover], and Vance [Rocky Carroll]. The greater team is all of the different teams he’s worked with, many of which involved Gibbs [Mark Harmon], and then of course there’s Tony [Michael Weatherly] and Ziva [Cote de Pablo], and there’s Bishop [Emily Wickersham], Abby [Pauley Perrette], of course, and everyone in between.
And so when we wrote this thing, while it’s certainly not a show that’s just all about clips or anything like that, there are these remembrances of Ducky and we wanted to see him interacting with people that are on our current team and also people that are on our iterations of our team, too. I think we did a pretty good job with that, and I think that people like to see that they’re getting to see their Ducky many years past as well as the more recent.
What moments working with David came to mind while you were writing the episode then filming it?
Oh, about 6,000, if I’m being honest. I was going through, and I was looking up my first scene with him with a tape recorder at the end of Season 1. I was looking at “The Meat Puzzle” in Season 2. I was looking at “Detour,” a Steven Binder classic where we’re being chased through the woods directed by Mario Van Peebles. That was actually a really cool episode to look back on because David, if I look at it now, I thought, oh man, he was 80 years old, 81 years old when we shot that episode. And it’s Jimmy and Ducky running through a wooded forest at night in the snow, and obviously asking an 80-something-year old man to do that for continual night shoots, that’s not okay. So they ended up building a whole forest on our set and made it snow [and] we shot it during the day.
Monty Brinton/CBS
Some of those things hit me and memories hit me. And so as I’m watching all these old shows as we’re writing this new show, I can’t tell you how many just good times that we had together, and I don’t want to try to summarize it in just a couple of quotes here because it’s tough to summarize 20 years of friendship and 20 years of camaraderie and mentorship and great scenes together being shared. But what I will say is that the thing that I’ll always remember and that hit me so hard when I was watching all of these things is just what a terrific worker David McCallum was continually. He always showed up prepared. He knew his things. He did every scene with the absolute best of his ability. And that’s something that I watched him do for years and tried to adopt for myself as well. So yeah, it’s been an honor.
How do you remember Jimmy and Ducky’s relationship?
I see it as a partnership and somewhat of a mentorship. I remember there’s one point at which some writer on our staff years ago—I can’t remember who the person was exactly—started wanting to get into this, oh, he’s like a son to Ducky, this is like his father figure, and had some lines about that. And David said, “Oh, no, no, no, no, no. They’re partners, and they’re work colleagues. The second we start getting into a hierarchy of, he’s my son or I’m his father sort of thing, there’ll be a power dynamic that I don’t want to explore too much. I want it to be that Jimmy can speak his mind when he needs to and so can Ducky.” And that’s the way he treated it. It was really about, we’re in this thing together.
I think that was what was really, really great about those two characters is that they both lifted each other up. Jimmy had this reverence for Ducky that was so easy to see, and Ducky, the moment that he found out that Jimmy had passed his medical examiner’s license test, he was a doctor, the first thing he says is “Dr. Palmer” with all this pride in his voice. And I’d be lying if I didn’t say it made me teary to think about because David treated me that way as well in my personal life. He was very kind, very proud when I started to take over more of the load of the M.E. at NCIS. He’d call me and say, “I love the scene you did. I love this and that. I’m so proud you’re doing this in my stead.” And so yeah, art imitated life here and there.
What do you recall about your first and last scenes together?
Our first scene together, I remember I booked this episode. It was a one day guest star, and so I was just going to go and do one scene for NCIS, and it was a spinoff of JAG, and I think I’d seen one episode of it at the time, and I’ll be honest, I didn’t know who David McCallum was, and I’d never seen The Man from U.N.C.L.E.. At the time, I’d never seen The Great Escape. So I was pretty uncultured. I walked in, and I did this scene with this really terrific actor. That’s all I knew. I just knew, well, he’s really good, he’s really fantastic. And so I went home and I looked up, who is this guy? What has he been in before? Only to find out that he was like one of film and TV’s Beatles from the 1960s. [Laughs] He was a living legend, and that was pretty great.
And what was wonderful is that we got along well and the producer at the time, Don Bellisario, saw, oh, those two work really well together. Let’s have Brian come back next week and then the next week and then the next week. It’s because the two of us worked well together and we worked well on our scenes that I got to keep working. So that was really, really wonderful.
I’ll say one of the last scenes that I remember doing with David in person—because over the last few years, David was shooting most of his scenes in New York and we would have him on a screen or an iPad or something like that—was Ducky and Jimmy at a diner just eating together. There was no case that we were talking about, there was no red herring or anything like that. It was just two guys sitting there talking about a girl that Jimmy likes, and it was a friend listening to another friend over a sandwich. I thought, looking back on it, that’s really wonderful. Because we did that so often within our autopsy scenes where the scene is about this body before us and all of the evidence that we have to deliver to the rest of the team, but the dialogue could be about just about anything. We could be joking about things. He could be going off on some diatribe about something that was seemingly unrelated but it really came through historically in this situation. And so yeah, it was a cool scene to go back and reflect on.

That "world's most populous city poll" started me wondering how many countries* those cities have a bigger population than...
Tokyo's population (37,435,191) is bigger than that of 170 countries, including Saudi Arabia's (36,952,585) and Ukraine's (36,758,716). In comparison, Canada has a population of 38,784,727.
Delhi's population (29,399,141) is bigger than that of 159 countries, including Cote D'Ivoire's (28,880,603) and Venezuela's (28,844,390)
Shanghai's population (26,317,104) is bigger than that of 154 countries, including North Korea's (26,161,743) and Taiwan's (23,923,572). In comparison, Australia has a population of 26,441,853.
São Paulo's and Mexico City's populations (21,846,507 and 21,671,908) are bigger than those of 148 countries, including Malawi (20,937,323) and Zambia (20,575,606)
And the populations of Cairo (20,484,965), Mumbai (20,185,064), Beijing (20,035,455), and Dhaka (20,283,552) are bigger than those of 146 countries, including Romania (19,889,414) and Chile (19,629,887)
*A place listed as a country on worldpopulationreview.com/countries, of which there are 210.
