What happened to Larry the Cable Guy? The rumors got loud enough that his rep had to answer

Who is the villain in Ransom Canyon? Season 1 hid its answer behind a business deal

Michael Weatherly played Anthony DiNozzo from the 2003 backdoor pilot on JAG through the season 13 finale, "Family First," which aired May 17, 2016. Two things ended that night: a 13-season run, and any pretense that the writers had a plan for what came next.
