My wife loves that NCIS NOLA show, but she won't watch it around me because I reflexively make fun of it. That kid from Sling Blade is the worse than Bakula because that is actually how he talks, he is a caricature and the reason people think folks from Alabama are all dumb rednecks.
Yeah....that too. He was in Fast and Furious 3, I believe... and somehow managed to make that movie even dumber..... pretty impressive feat, actually.
NCIS:NOLA..... it's just...so fake and so forced. Hey guys..NCIS has all these quirky characters... let's script some over the top quirkeness right in from the beginning instead of letting the actors bring out their own quirks... then add all these tropes, special connections, and macguffins, and a silly nickname that feels forced, like "King" and yeah, that'll be real original, and no one will notice.....
(not trying to bag on your wife, btw... but the show really is just that bad. Admittedly... Post Ziva, NCIS has been mediocre to bad, in general, though.)
