Thank you for remembering our soldiers today. My son has been a Marine for 10yrs. God has him in his hands but I miss him so and pray for all of our men and women 🙏. Please, let’s not forget them! We lost 2 Marines just before Memorial Day in Afghanistan! I couldn’t quit crying

My grandpa is a WWII U.S. Army Vietnam Vet. He’s 97 years old and he ALWAYS makes me a proud granddaughter. He usually spends his time nowadays taking things that was once trash (such as an old watch holder) and makes it into art. He’ll take anything and turn it into art. ❤️

The actress’ Memorial Day celebrations came just a little more than a week after the trailer for her new CBS series Broke debuted at the CBS upfront presentation at Carnegie Hall earlier this month.
The series, on which Perrette stars as Jackie, follows an “outrageously wealthy trust fund baby who is cut off by his father, prompting him and his wife to move into her estranged sister’s Reseda home — and the two siblings are forced to reconnect.”
Along with Perrette, Broke also stars Jane the Virgin‘s Jaime Camil, who stars as Javier, as well as Antonio Raul Corbo, Natasha Leggero, and Izzy Diaz.
Executive produced by Emmy-winner Alex Herschlag, Jennie Snyder Urman (Jane the Virgin), Joanna Klein, Ben Silverman, Jaime Camil, Guillermo Restrepo, Gonzalo Cilley, and Maria Lucia Hernandez, the series marks Perrette’s return to TV following her departure from NCIS, on which she had starred as Abby Sciuto for 15 seasons.
Speaking of her character prior to her exit, the actress had stated that Abby’s “legacy is going to be forever.”
“The effect that she’s had around the world, especially in young girls pursuing math and science,” she said. “There [are] young women out there who’ve gotten their degrees and are in the field of science and math and forensics because of this TV character.”
Broke is expected to premiere sometime midseason on CBS.
