Oh are you missing out. If you get the chance, watch the first four or five seasons of the tv show NCIS. It should be available on one of the big platforms (Netflix, Amazon, etc). David McCallum, who played Ilya Kuryakin in the old TV show “Man from U.N.C.L.E.” plays the medical examiner, Dr. Mallard (hence the nickname Ducky, though only to his friends) in NCIS. The show itself is pretty good, and McCallum got so good at his part through research (he trained with a coroner for the role) that he sometimes got invited to actual medical conferences to speak.

Thanks for the synopsis of the show, LP. I remember David McCallum from The Man From U.N.C.L.E. — that was decades ago. I’ll have to check it out.

Big fan of the first several seasons. Thanks for the “Duckie” info.

Well there’s a blast from the past.

I considered Ilya a cool guy, even had the Man From UNCLE toy gun, for a time, in 1966...

Of course it seemed like Robert Vaughan had more action going with the girls, for some reason. In 1966.
