NCIS Secrets No One Will Ever Tell You

CBS.com says Michael Weatherly Jr. "is one of the few actors on TV given the freedom to ad-lib scripts and make them funnier, which he does regularly" on NCIS. In one episode, TonyDiNozzo assesses a woman's attractiveness with the line, "She's no Jessica Alba." Weatherly and Alba used to be an item. They fell madly in love while co-starring on the television series Dark Angel, got engaged in 2001, but never walked down the aisle. Their romance ended in 2003.

On a live chat with TV.com in 2009, Weatherly wrote, "As far as ad libs go I am an uncontrolable ad-libber. It is like a syndrome [sic]. I am sure it is amussing [sic] to the editors but sometimes the cast wants to kill me. However, I shall continue to ad-lib as long as the character Anthony Dinozzo resides at desk #2 in the squad room." He also added, "...my spelling is tsibewas."
