The opportunity for the actress to lift the veil on the behind the scenes of the series, in particular on the day when Mark Harmon reprimanded her in the middle of filming.
Before flying to Budapest to film the spin-off NCIS : Tony & Ziva, Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly have embarked on a completely different adventure: a podcast. Since June 4, the two actors have hosted Off Duty : An NCIS Rewatch and receive some prestigious guests to comment on episodes of the famous detective series, certain seasons of which are now available on Netflix and Prime Video. Two weeks after having had a tender thought for David McCallum, Cote de Pablo spoke of another of his colleagues from NCIS : Mark Harmon.
Cote de Pablo remembers the day Mark Harmon scolded her when she was sick
While they hosted Sean Murray (Timothy McGee) on their podcast, Cote de Pablo returned to the day when Mark Harmon, the interpreter of Gibbs, reprimanded her for having made the decision to stay at home due to her state of health. Mark Harmon would have taken her aside to explain that it was necessary to appear on set so that the production team could decide on the approach to follow. “I was sick during season 3, really, really sickand I had Doctor Pat (…) He came to the house, I had a terrible fever and Doctor Pat said: ‘You can’t go to work.’ So I thought to myself: ‘Well, if the doctor tells me I can’t go to work, I have to follow his orders.’ So I made a big mistake, I stayed home. They sent me a car, I went to the set and Mark came to see me. He was nice enough, but he was also very strict (…) Et he was in mode: ‘You come on set, and then we’ll see how we’re going to approach this problem.’“.
Cote de Pablo: “I don’t think I’ve been sick again…”
After this little reminder, Cote de Pablo humorously revealed that she had never fallen ill again during the filming of the other seasons of NCIS. “By the way, I don’t think I’ve been sick again… And when you think about it, anyone can do a job, better, worse, whatever. But no one can play McGee, no one “No one can play DiNozzo. So you really had to be there, and it’s a lot of pressure.”she continued.
