What was your craziest day of filming NCISLA?

Posted on November 4, 2018 by Diane in Q&A with ECO // 14 Comments

Welcome back to our exclusive wikiDeeks video series with Eric Christian Olsen! This week Eric addresses a question inspired by readers itsbeaferreira and Older than Yesterday where he, with a little help from Daniela Ruah, tells us about his craziest, most magical day of filming NCIS: Los Angeles. The duo also demonstrates yet again their amazing friendship that produces such onscreen magic. Many thanks go out to Eric and Dani for taking the time to answer our question tonight. If you also have a question for Eric leave it below in the Comments and we will pass it along to him. Enjoy!

Aww, that was just too cute a story! How cool is it that one of ECO’s craziest/most magical days at work involved feeding fish to sea lions and listening to LL Cool J laugh? Now I’m trying to figure out what ep it was…Fish Out Of Water is the first thing that comes to mind. Could be why Dani looked a little confused when ECO started describing it–she would have been out on maternity leave then. And I agree, Diane, ECO and Dani seem to have such a great relationship behind the scenes as well as in front of the cameras!

  Psyched, apologies for the thumbs down!!! That’s what I get for trying to thumbs up on my phone. And yes, pretty sure this is Fish Out of Water.

    it was just a few months ago and we (I) were so upset because we thought wikiDeeks was going to be no more. How wrong I was. wikiDeeks is better than ever Diane. Thank you

#askECO When will he make an artistic performance for Kensi? Exotic dancing, singing rock or playing the violin? Dani already taught to speak Portuguese? You are the best people on the Planet! 👏👏👏👏👏

This video was so funny!! Thanks WikiDeeks for making the dream of interviewing Eric come true. I look forward to Sundays even more since this video series started.
Eric and Daniela are great together, also behind the scenes (only a confirmation of what we already knew).
The scene ECO decribed was amusing and I could perfectly picture LL laugh and make everybody laugh too.

I have a question for Eric, one I have had for a long time (I posted it here two years ago in the article Top Three Questions for Eric Christian Olsen, when interviewing him for real seemed only a distant dream).

#askECO Even if I understand that actors have the line between themselves and their characters always clear, spending so much time being a different person for work could mean you are more hours of the day that character than yourself, so I would be curious to know from Eric: how much of Deeks remains with you in your everyday personal life? Do you ever happen to wonder what he would do in your place? Have you shot any scenes that, for a reason or another, you have found difficult to forget or let go once back home?

I see that ECO is completely smitten by LL Cool J. Seems that all his best moments at NCISLA are connected with LL Cool J.

These clips are such fun. What a great partnership, ECO and wikiDeek! And an added bonus to have Dani join in. How sweet and surprising that ECO’s craziest day was more about someone else than himself. Love these videos! Thanks to wikiDeeks, ECO and Daniela..and the behind the scenes crew. Already eager to see the next one!
