NCIS is not short on great guest stars. Most recently, the drama announced that Robert Wagner would appear as Tony's father on the show's 150th episode.

Now, it's been revealed that a well-known, vertically-challenged actress is also coming on board the top-rated show on TV.

Meredith Eaton - who has appeared on CSI and House; and who enjoyed an extended run on Boston Legal - will portray Abby's former college friend and fellow lab tech on an upcoming installment. She'll visit Abby for advice.

Pauley Perrette (Abby) and Eaton are close friends in real life.
