NCIS character Abby Sciuto was a fan favorite for years - until Pauley Perrettes left the crime series. Now she's coming back in a comedy series. In "Broke," the former NCIS analyst plays Jackie, a single mom who has to work two jobs to make ends meet. Her sister Elizabeth (Natasha Leggero) just married rich Javier (Jaime Camil). After five years, she suddenly stands in front of Jackie's door, only stupid when the rich husband is suddenly broke.
For many NCIS fans, Pauley Perrette's exit in 2017 was dramatic. They tweeted the Abbey Sciuto actress to consider making a comeback. After some time, the actress burst and revealed the real reason for leaving the popular crime series after 15 years: The main actor, Mark Harmon, aka Special Agent Leroy Gibbs, was to blame. His attack dogs would attack the crew members and when Perrette tried to intervene, he lunged at them. In an emotional post, she explained, "I'm not coming back! Ever! (Please stop asking me?) I am afraid of Harmond and that he will attack me. I have nightmares about it. I have a new show that is safe and happy! You will love her!». Back then, Pauley Perrette couldn't tell which show it was, but now we know. The comedy show is called "Broke".
NO I AM NOT COMING BACK! EVER! (Please stop asking?) I am terrified of Harmon and him attacking me. I have nightmares about it. I have a new show that is SAFE AND HAPPY! You'll love it!#HappyPlace Love y'all!

In "Broke" she plays a single mother. When, after five years, her sister suddenly came over with her husband. While Jackie (Pauley Perrette) has to work two jobs to make ends meet, her sister Elizabeth (Natasha Leggero) simply married wealthy Javier (Jaime Camil). Only bad if the rich husband is suddenly broke. The two need a roof over their heads and move in with Jackie and her son Milo (Antonio Raul Corbo). They have Javier's assistant, driver and friend Louis with them. The dissimilar sisters are slowly getting closer to each other while we have a lot to laugh about. "Broke" starts on April 2nd on CBS, when the series will appear with us is not yet known...
