Regarding "NCIS" -- what do fans ask you most?

Are you as much of a tech nerd as your character?

Are you?

My answer is, "I own an iPhone." Y'know, my character hacks into government agencies many times a day. So ... He chuckles.]

You're not quite that good?

I'm getting there.

Who are you most likely to hang out with at the commissary?

Renée Felice Smith. We have a lot of scenes together. Plus, she's from the theater world in New York, went to NYU. We're super-tight.

Who intimidated you the most, at first?

LL Cool J. he's just so physically ...

Huge?

He's like a brick wall. But when he walks into a room, he makes everyone feel comfortable. He's so charming, engaging. But it's like ... wow, I listened to your rap music in high school. Then, there's Linda Hunt, who's 4-foot-whatever and has an Oscar. That's imposing, too. But they're both great.
