ET headed to the Big Easy, digging up some NCIS: New Orleans show secrets from star Scott Bakula.
"New Orleans has got style," Bakula told ET's Kevin Frazier. "You're walking by and there's a guy riding in a carriage, and he's got a purple suit on from head to toe, and you're like, 'Yup!' He's working it too."

The show captures that style by shooting on location, soaking up as much authenticity as it can.
"It's fun," the Golden Globe winner said. "This exterior exists on a street in New Orleans, and we go and we shoot outside there."
Still, the production team had to recreate some of the locations inside a soundstage in case of unfavorable weather. Frazier got a taste of a Louisiana storm when thunder struck during his set visit.
"For people in L.A., [that sound] comes with rain," Bakula joked. "When there's rain, it comes from the sky."

The 61-year-old Missouri native feels right at home, despite the storms. As a talented piano player and a restaurant connoisseur, Bakula's personality seems to be a perfect fit for the city.
"I love it," Bakula said. "I love it!"
The new season of NCIS: New Orleans premieres Tuesday, Sept. 20 at 10/9c on CBS.
