Does Anyone Actually Die in NCIS: Los Angeles? A Deep Dive (or Not So Deep, Let’s Be Honest)
So, you've binged all 14 seasons of NCIS: Los Angeles and you're wondering if anyone actually kicks the bucket. Well, buckle up, because we’re about to embark on a thrilling journey through the world of fake deaths and near-misses.
Death Defying Stunts and Plot Armor
Let’s be real, NCIS: LA is more about car chases, undercover ops, and Callen's questionable fashion choices than it is about mass casualties. The show has a knack for keeping its core characters alive, which is both frustrating and oddly comforting. It’s like watching a never-ending game of dodgeball where the main characters have superpowers.
That said, there have been some pretty intense moments. Remember that time when [Spoiler alert, but let’s be honest, you probably don’t remember]? Yeah, that was close. And don’t even get us started on the countless explosions, shootouts, and hostage situations. It's a miracle anyone on that team can still feel their pulse.
The Supporting Cast: A Higher Turnover Rate
While the main characters seem to have nine lives, the supporting cast is a different story. There have been a few casualties over the years, which is both sad and necessary for dramatic tension. But let's be honest, most of the time you're like, "Who was that again?"
The Real Question: Does Anyone Actually Get Promoted?
Okay, so maybe death isn't the biggest mystery on NCIS: LA. How about promotions? Has anyone on this team ever gotten a corner office? A raise? A pat on the back? We're pretty sure they all just work for the thrill of it.
