Pauley Perrette and Wilmer Valderrama have paid tribute to David McCallum, who died Sept. 25 at 90 in New York.
McCallum was the last remaining original cast member on CBS’ NCIS. He played Chief Medical Examiner Donald “Ducky” Mallard, an eccentric but highly efficient investigator with a knack for psychological profiling, for two decades.
Paulette — who played Abby Sciuto from 2003-2018 on NCIS — called McCallum a “legend” and posted a series of pictures of him on Instagram.
