Well youâd think that using Australian funding and being aired on the ABC, you know the Australian broadcaster using Australian taxpayer money that should be enough to warrant having an Australian cast.
Iâm sure it would be very easy to mandate to have all Australian actors, they seem to manage it when it comes to diversity quotas.
They all benefit from Australian tax breaks and usually government backed assistance in some form, so largely the money is coming from Australia and Australians.
I donât think it has anything to do with money financed (Troppo will only get made if Thomas Jane stars!) , just the misguided notion that people are drawn to known names and that they think this sells the show better internationally and gets people more excited here. Itâs disheartening that Australian stories are being told via foreign actors.
CBS has revealed synopses for the first ever NCIS/NCIS: Hawaiâi crossover (spoiler alert)
It is scheduled to air in America on March 28 and in Australia on March 29. Given NCIS: Hawaiâi is currently only available on Paramount+, 10 may make an exception and air the entire crossover in place of NCIS: Los Angeles.

Not only will we have to wait until mid October for new seasons of NCIS franchise, each episode of NCIS and NCIS: Hawaii will stream five days apart, which is inconvenient for fans, especially both shows air in America on the same night, and that the first episodes of the new seasons is a 2-part crossover.

Whatâs with the emoji they used, indifference?
It will be interesting if the crossover will air in Australia on Paramount+ first or on 10 first - 10 is yet to start the new season of NCIS: Los Angeles.
