MONDAY MINUTIAE - BULLISH IN-JOKES


Here are two trivia tidbits from the IMDb:

'BULL'
Dr. Bull (Michael Weatherly), says "I like Boss, call me Boss" when telling someone how to refer to him. Michael Weatherly played Special Agent Anthony Dinozzo in the long running crime drama NCIS. On that show the team agents referred to their leader as boss.

'NCIS'
McGee says Tony (Michael Weatherly) "mess(ed) with the bull," alluding to the series Weatherly left NCIS to join.


Neither of those two in-jokes serve as any kind of connection between those two shows.  That's not always the case with in-jokes; a lot of times we can make theoretical connections based on them.

But who knows?  Maybe one day Dr. Jason Bull will have to deal with the NY branch of the NCIS.  There would be no official crossover to the characters from any of the 'NCIS' shows, but that won't stop me from making that suggeston....

BCnU!
