NCIS: Los Angeles - Season 12: A Case of the Missing Episodes (But Seriously, How Many?)
Ah, NCIS: Los Angeles. The land of sun, surf, and highly classified investigations. You might be diving into season 12, ready to binge-watch Callen and Sam crack wise while kicking villainous butts. But before you settle in with your favorite snacks (pro-tip: Hetty loves cheese!), a crucial question arises: How many episodes are we talking about here?
The Plot Thickens (or Does it Thin Out?)
Here's the thing: buckle up, because this case involves a surprising plot twist. Season 12 of NCIS: Los Angeles doesn't quite follow the show's usual episode count. Unlike previous seasons with their standard 24 episodes, Season 12 only has 18.
Hold on, what? Why the short season?
Well, that's a classified detail, folks. Maybe Callen and Sam went on a particularly epic undercover mission that ate into filming time. Maybe Granger got a little too enthusiastic with the exploding cupcakes (seriously, who puts nitroglycerin in frosting?). The truth is out there, but it remains a mystery for now.
The Upside of a Slightly Shorter Season
Look at the bright side, though! A shorter season means you can:
- Power through it faster, becoming the ultimate NCIS: Los Angeles aficionado.
- Stretch it out, savoring each episode like a fine (non-exploding) cupcake.
- Use the extra time to perfect your own interrogation techniques. Just remember, the Geneva Conventions probably frown upon using tickle fights to extract intel.
The Bottom Line
So, there you have it. Season 12 of NCIS: Los Angeles might be a tad shorter than usual, but it still promises its fair share of action, drama, and enough witty banter to keep you quoting for weeks. Now, get out there and enjoy the show! Just don't try any of Hetty's "special" recipes at home. We wouldn't want another cupcake incident.
