While the Oscars are airing March 27 on ABC, CBS is counter-programming with a bonus episode of NCIS: Los Angeles so that, in effect, we have two back-to-back episodes: “Bonafides” at the special time of 8PM ET/PT followed by “Pandora’s Box” at 9. To promote these episodes – one of which is directed by series star Daniela Ruah – CBS has released descriptions, photos, and guest cast lists for both of them. You can find all of that below.
