“NCIS: Los Angeles’’ (CBS)
Procedural spin off

Stars: LL Cool J, Chris O’Donnell, Linda Hunt

The concept: A spinoff from “JAG,’’ “NCIS’’ now offers up its own offspring, which focuses on undercover surveillance.

Our take: Good enough, for sure, and love the cast. The low-key O’Donnell registers beautifully on the small screen. But is CBS running the risk of overkilling the formula by airing it after “NCIS’’?

Alternate name: “Fran Chise’’

Grade: B (Sept. 22)

From left: Chris O'Donnel as Special Agent "G" Callen and LL COOL J as Special Agent Sam Hanna.
