Pauley Perrette calls out abuse, misogyny and homophobia on "my old show" NCIS in wake of Peter Lenkov exposé

Twitter

Perrette responded to Vanity Fair's lengthy story detailing the fired Hawaii Five-0, MacGyver and Magnum P.I. boss Lenkov's abusive behavior by recounting the abuse she says she experienced on NCIS. Her comments come a year after Perrette tweeted "I was terrified" of former co-star Mark Harmon. "there are things SO RACIST and SO MISOGYNISTIC and SO HOMOPHOBIC and cruel that were said on set at that show that I have never spoken of because the language is SO HURTFUL," Perrette tweeted. "And y’all wondered why I quit? Those producers are still there. All of them. Including HIM. And good guy @LucasTill a beautiful truthful human, I too went to @CBS told about abuse by MH (Mark Harmon) on set & I was asked THREE TIMES 'are you asking for money?' I was like 'Huh? No!' And I did NOT! I wanted me & my crew to be safe from him. I should’ve and given it to his other victims."
