Confirmed: Pauley Perrette is Off to Los Angeles

The rumors are true: Abby is heading to the west coast.

The character, played by Pauley Perrette, will cross from NCIS (the top-rated show on TV) to its spin-off (the second-highest rated show on TV), NCIS: Los Angeles, next month.

Fans of both dramas are aware that Abby has spoken to to the new team on the phone already this season, but this will be her first time actually appearing on the show. It won't go very smoothly, however: someone will abduct Abby!

This installment of NCIS: Los Angeles airs on November 24.
