Washington Field comes from Ed Bernero, producer and creator of Criminal Minds. The series, done with the FBI’s stamp of approval, is named after the FBI’s Washington field office.

It’s said the office contains the National Capitol Response Squad – a team of elite experts with different types of expertise, who respond to events related to U.S. national interests. Related events? Types of expertise? This sounds just shady enough to have all sorts of plot possibilities.

Two brothers, (Jim and Tim Clemente) one a real FBI profiler, and the other a former terrorism expert wrote this script along with Bernero, which elevates this one high in the realism category.

The yet unnamed NCIS spin-off has been OKd and will feature a team of naval investigators. THR reports Chris O’Donnell (pictured above) is tapped for the lead agent, Callen. Hip-Hop star and actor LL Cool J, the beautiful Louise Lombard, Daniela Ruah, and Peter Cambor include the amazing cast. 

Although there has been some criticism about the need for an NCIS spin-off, you have to consider that with a criminal procedural this good, there’s always room for spin-offs.

So far, this is how the series is filling out:

• Lombard – Female lead named Clara, sharp investigator and former major in the military police
• Cool J – Investigator named Sam; still seeking details on this role
• Cambor – Operational psychologist named Nate who acts as the team’s conscious
• Ruah – The eager student of criminology and forensics named Kensi
