I was asked a question in my comment zone on an article about Michael Weatherly, of NCIS fame, here on the Cinema Static section on Brusimm.com. The question left behind was the following:
“Does Michael Weatherly have an ex-wife that plays on the Young and the Restless?”
First, to deal with one of your questions Carmen, yes. Michael Weatherly was married to Amelia Heinle. Amelia Heinle has played Mia Saunders on the soap opera, All My Children, from 2001 to 2004. She’s also played Victoria Newman and all her name variations on The Young and the Restless from 2005 to 2011.
Weatherly and Newman had a son in 1996, named August Manning.

While digging this up, I found out a few interesting things about Michael Weatherly I thought I’d toss out here for your intellectual digestion… I mean there’s stuff here that I either didn’t know or forgot I knew!
Michael is the son of Michael Manning Weatherly Sr., who was (is?) the American importer for the Swiss Army Knife!
The lucky bugger was also dated Rachel Hunter and was engaged at one time to Jessica Alba, who called him her first love. It was suggested in an interview with her that Michael was… the first guy, that, well, you know. Dude, talk about blazing coveted trails!

In the closing episodes of the eighth season of NCIS, titled “Baltimore,” “Swan Song” & “Pyramid,” they’ve done it again and pulled out some stops to make this yet another memorable season closer. The team is on the tail of the “Port to Port” serial killer, which we learn is former Lt. Jonas Kobb (Kerr Smith). But that information came with a heavy price.
Kobb gives Mike Franks (Muse Watson) his last good fight, and Franks dies by his hand. But Franks didn’t have long to live anyway, so it would seem he went out on his own terms. I was as sad as the NCIS team itself to see Franks leave. But Franks’ funeral was as touching, to see Gibbs (Mark Harmon) handy wood work adorning his coffin.
Ziva (Cote de Pablo) uncharacteristically finds herself kidnapped and held prisoner by Kobb. But it was again, all a ruse. The team goes after Ziva and Kobb gets what he wants… inside NCIS to get closer to who he thinks is to blame for the program where he himself was trained, trianed to become the best killing machine ever.
In the end, Kobb is stopped by the team. It takes the entire team to stop him, but I think there was a snag in the plot.
Kobb wsa a very methodical, well planned out and plotted character. He was the impossible criminal to catch. But then his getting caught seemed a wee bit more simple than I thought. He showed up at Gibbs’ house, but killed Franks. He let himself get caught to get inside NCIS, and though he manages to wrangle three of the people he needed to kill, he is taken down.
