NCIS

[Mr. Brown]

Is anyone else watching this on a regular basis?

[comicfan]

nah... never really could get into this show.

[Erased]

Is anyone else watching this on a regular basis?


Yes. I watch this show every week. It's my favorite as of right now. I've seen every episode to date. I'm kind of a nerd like that though. I'm pretty pissed that they're doing a Spin-off show.

*Edit*

Also...Gibbs is one badass mother fucker.

[Erased]

Also, Mr. Brown...if you didn't know. USA has 3 episodes on everyday usually *Monday-Friday*....I watch the re-runs all the time.

Oh yes I watch the back to back to back, I also happen to just about have every eps downloaded so if you need one let me know. I heard about the spin off. I'd rather them not since It's already a spin off of Jag. I'd rather Bellisario make another program ( does he know how to make a bad TV show?)

It's also on Ion and it seems like every holiday USA does a marathon.

now who was better Kate or Ziva?

[Erased]

Well...we only got to see/deal with Kate for 2 seasons, now I know that Ziva has only been on for 3. They've developed her character awhole lot better than Kate I think. They've told alot more about Ziva than Kate. If you remember when Kate came on all we basically knew is that she was Secret Service for the president. They didn't really do too much with her character. So I think Ziva is better, plus she's smokin' hot.

[Mr. Brown]

Kate and Tony were suppose to date if she didn't leave the show. Kill Ari pt 1 and 2 was one of the best death of a main character I've ever seen.

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

To me the whole Ziva concept is retarded. A Mossad officer get to go solve crimes in America while Israel is fighting for it's life. Yeah right. But then again it's only a little less believable than a Marine Corps Gunny Sniper- turned CIA drug lord assassin turned glorified cop.

The characters on the show are really good now, and I like Ziva, I just think some of the shit we are supposed to believe is a little far fetched.

And if you're gonna have an Israeli chick on the show, why hire a glorified Mexican to play her? There are some pretty damn smoking hot Isreali chicks. That said Cote is still hot. Especially with straight hair. And that said 5 days out of the week I'd rather bang Kate.

I agree with Mikey Ziva is made out to be some badass Mossad officer I think that they have pushed that a little bit too much. I think they could of done so many other different things with Ziva, but still I think she's a good character for the show, just drop some things about her and her past, and the whole "half brother" thing with Ari...that was just retarded in my opinion.


Kate was pretty hot but, I still think Ziva is way hotter.

Another thing...does anyone like the new director Vance? I'm still debating if I like him or not. It took me forever to like Dir. Shepard.

[Erased]

Kill Ari pt 1 and 2 was one of the best death of a main character I've ever seen.

Agreed, but like I said in my last post. I think that the whole heel with Ari and Ziva being half brother/sister was kinda dumb, although it was a bit interesting way to add a new character to the show.

[Mr. Brown]

It would have been better if she was only his case officer and and punishment was sent as a liaison. Vance is like Gibbs if he became the director. Like everyone is either gruff as shit or doppy and cute.

After the episode where Tony and Ziva pretended to be married assassins, That was what made me want Ziva more.

It's not hard to see a career Marine who lost his family want to become an NIS/NCIS agent. It's just like that probie from the episode with the bank robbery at Quantico. He said he joined b/c a NIS agent cleared his father of charges.

[Erased]

Here's some news for the Spin-off show...the cast....

The team of naval investigators on the "NCIS" spinoff is coming into focus.

Louise Lombard, Peter Cambor and Daniela Ruah have been cast as leads in the hot CBS/CBS Par pilot, which will air as an episode of "NCIS" in the spring, just as the pilot for "NCIS" aired as an episode of "JAG."

The three would join Chris O'Donnell and LL Cool J, who are still in negotiations for the other two leads in the spinoff.


Lombard will play Clara, a role perceived as the female lead on the ensemble drama. A former major in the military police, Clara is an intelligent, sharp investigator who can look after herself.

Cambor ("Notes From the Underbelly") will play the quick-witted Nate, the team's conscience and beating heart. Nate is an operational psychologist and a walking encyclopedia of American culture.

Ruah will play Kensi, a super bright young investigator who studied forensics and criminology in college.

Brit Lombard is joining the "NCIS" franchise after a stint on another hit CBS crime procedural, "CSI," where she played Detective Sofia Curtis for three years.

She also played the title lead in the ABC pilor "Judy Got a Gun."

Lombard is repped by Luber Roklin Entertainment and U.K.'s United Agents.

[Mr. Brown]

Fuckin why they think that the "walking encyclopedia of American culture" is gonna be like Tony and his movies? So fucking lame. Just tryin to milk the cow. There all young, or play young people yet are the best in their field. Fuckin Abby is played by a 40 year old (who's hott as shit)

Yeah but he was "a marine sniper in socom" talk about a downgrade. Only MP's wanna be cops. Everyone but MP's hate MP's.

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

It's just some silly backstory stuff. The charecters are fine without inventing all this unbelievable stuff. Kate was real, Tony and McGee are real, Gibbs, and Ziva and Jenny are/were fake as shit backstory wise.

[Mr. Brown]

He almost killed himself after his wife and daughter was killed. What else was he gonna do?

haven't you seen most movies about spys? they are always ex military. or loaned out. Like Domingo Chavez

Yeah, I hated how they always would do flashbacks of when Gibbs and Jenny doink'd in Paris. I don't know why but that always annoyed the living shit out of me.

[Mr. Brown]

Yeah, I hated how they always would do flashbacks of when Gibbs and Jenny doink'd in Paris. I don't know why but that always annoyed the living shit out of me.
The only good flashbacks were once we found out that Gibbs had a family like the one where he was with little Gibbs working one the boat and then he flashed on a memory of him and his daughter doing the same. Or the one where he met his wife(?) at the train station leaving his home town.

[Erased]

Fuckin Abby is played by a 40 year old (who's hott as shit)

Agreed. I didn't know Pauley Perrette(Abby) was 40 until just recently. I always thought she was in her early 30's or something. I absolutely love her character though. She is awesome. Definitely a major highlight of the show in my opinion.

Yeah, most def. Did you like the one episode(assuming your all caught up) I think it was either in season 4 or 5 perhaps, but where Gibbs' daughter childhood friend came asking for help. The only reason why I bring it up is because of the flashbacks Gibbs had in it.

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

YEAH SPIES NOT COPS

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

He almost killed himself after his wife and daughter was killed. What else was he gonna do?


Well had it been me, I'd killed the dude, then went back to my sniping job.

[Mr. Brown]

yeah that was a good one. I have every episode even the Jag episodes that set up the series

Teen witch was the original female lead

[Mr. Brown]

YEAH SPIES NOT COPS
he was a spy then a cop I believe

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

Exactly, why the fuck would anyone say "meh, I'm getting bored sniping drug lords in Columbia. I think I'll join the Navy Cops, and bust sailors for dime bags."

[Erased]

If anyone cares...I think it'll be interesting...

Question: I'm beginning to think you have something against Goths, Ausiello! Please, please, please can we have some NCIS scoop -- even if it's not about Abby! -- Jo
Ausiello: But it is about Abby! Seriously! In an April episode, Tony and McGee must take over duties in Abby's lab after she's recruited to work a secret mission for the Army CID. Now, picture for a moment Tony and McGee trying to do Abby's job in Abby's lab. Hilarious, no?

[Mr. Brown]

Exactly, why the fuck would anyone say "meh, I'm getting bored sniping drug lords in Columbia. I think I'll join the Navy Cops, and bust sailors for dime bags."
He killed one drug lord, the one who killed his family. He joined b/c Franks was the one who helped him find him and saved his life.

have you even watched the show?

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

Really the drug lord that was rosa's baby daddy wasn't a drug lord? Yes I watch the show. He was tasked to the CIA for the war on drugs, his AO was Columbia. I do watch the show. Do you?

[Mr. Brown]

Really the drug lord that was rosa's baby daddy wasn't a drug lord? Yes I watch the show. He was tasked to the CIA for the war on drugs, his AO was Columbia. I do watch the show. Do you?
My bad been watching the 1st three seasons. The one your talking about is from this season where they tried to make it seem like the kid was Gibb's son for a while. The new ones have been lacking a tad

To the whole McGee and Tony in the lab eps
McGee knows his way around the lab and Tony is not as dumb as they try to make him to be.

I want to see an episode where we meet Tony's family. Like one member is in the Navy or said to have killed someone like McGee's sister.

BTW have you noticed that the Tony themed eps are really good ie SWAK (where he gets the plague) and Frame-Up when Chip sets up Tony.

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

Tony seems to be out of his parents will completely so we probably won't see them, but it would be interesting. And yeah I like the Tony episodes too.

[Mr. Brown]

I think he was cut out of the will when he became a cop.

Yeah, I would like to see what Tony's family is like, and yes...every "tony themed" eps are really good the episode where he gets framed for murdering some girl & cutting her legs off was really good. I like how they made it where Abby's assistant (chip) was the one behind it all doing all the DNA matching etc.

Is it just me or does "Ducky" not get enough love on the show? He's awesome, I'd like to see them do more episodes with him. When he got stabbed that was a really powerful episode.

*Edit*

I don't know if you noticed Mikey, in an episode Tony was talking about all the places he worked as a police officer, did you happen to notice he said Peoria IL? I was like whoa, because that town is only like 15 minutes away from me.

[Mr. Brown]

They could have done better with the Meat Puzzle episode. I think since they are aiming for the younger demographic they don't give Ducky that much attention. I do like that when Kate asked Gibbs what Ducky looked like when he was younger he said Illya Kuryakin from The Man from U.N.C.L.E..(which is a pretty good show)

Since I live in the Washington Metro area I like when they pay attention to detail with particular roads and areas.

[Erased]

Even though he works for the FBI, I really like SA Fornell. He's a really good character too. Him and Gibbs together are great.

[Mr. Brown]

He should get a spin off of anyone.

I'd wish they could have done another episode of the Doppelgänger homicide team.

[Erased]

Agreed.

[Mr. Brown]

I also liked the "mini me" episodes. I liked the mini Tony episode better

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

I guess it slipped my mind. i remember Baltimore.

Also Ducky is old as fuck. He has to be close to 80 but only looks about 55-60.

[Mr. Brown]

David McCallum (Ducky) is 75
Good healthy living

[Erased]

Holy shit, I did not know that. LIke Mikey said..he looks about 55-60.

[Angry Ass Messican Dude]

Shit Man from uncle was 40 something years ago.
I'd say he has a pretty constant supply of poon, and that keeps him young.

[Mr. Brown]

Yeah shit Gibbs (Mark Harmon) is 57

[Mr. Brown]

NCIS: Legend

CBS is currently developing an NCIS spin-off series that will be entitled NCIS: Legend. Filming is scheduled to start in February 2009, with the characters introduced in a two-part NCIS episode this year. The characters listed were: Callen, Clara Macy, Nate "Doc" Getz, Kensi Lo, Sam Hanna, and Dominic Vaile. Crew members will include Michael B. Kaplan, Lev L. Spiro, Jerry London, Sheldon Epps and Mark Saraceni.

Chris O'Donnell will be playing the lead character, Callen, an enigmatic lead agent whose natural talent for undercover work is legend. LL Cool J, will be playing the role of Special Agent Sam Hanna, an ex-Navy SEAL, who works in the undercover unit of NCIS in Los Angeles, and is also fluent in Arabic and an expert on Middle Eastern culture.

Louise Lombard, Peter Cambor, and Daniela Ruah were confirmed to be cast as leads of the new spin-off. Playing the female lead (called "Clara"), a psychologist (called "Nate") and forensic investigator (called "Kensi") respectively, they will appear on-screen for the first time in an episode of NCIS that airs in the spring, followed by a pilot of the new series

[Erased]

Eh...i'll give it a shot. I don't know if i'll like it though. I said that about CSI though, I loved the original, and I like the Miami version but thats it.

[Mr. Brown]

Good episode tonight, the murder mystery wasn't all that, but the look into Vance's past was nice and good set up to the Tony/Ziva finally getting together

[Erased]

Pretty good episode. Like you said though, the murder mystery was kind of weak. I also liked how they showed a softer side of Vance and not being such a hard ass all the time. Did anyone else notice when Gibbs was at Vance's house he had the car from the episode "heartland" that aired earlier in the season. I believe its a Charger or Challenger...one of those two but I thought it looked like a Cuda, either way..it's a hemi. Can't wait for next weeks episode.

[Mr. Brown]

Yeah nice to see continuity, seems like they are doing some weak episodes and then going to go with a big arc over the last few episodes. I for one am hoping for a Vance has to leave and Gibbs takes over as Director. I'm waiting for the tie in episodes with the spin off.

BTW have you seen the JAG episodes where NCIS first appeared? It's a total different team from what we know.

[nobody]

Agreed. I didn't know Pauley Perrette(Abby) was 40 until just recently. I always thought she was in her early 30's or something. I absolutely love her character though. She is awesome. Definitely a major highlight of the show in my opinion.

Agreed, I think Abbey is hotter than Kate OR Ziva. I preferred Kate to Ziva though (as far as appearance anyway ... I like Ziva's character better though ...). And Mac (Catherine Bell) from JAG buried them all ;) .

[Mr. Brown]

JAG fan?

[Erased]

I really hope that doesn't happen. Gibbs is an awesome "in the field" character. I dont think I'd like to see him as acting director. Just wouldn't seem right. It was ok during one episode when Dir. Shepard was out of the country and Gibbs took over as acting director. I just don't think Gibbs is the "director" type..he'd break way too many rules.

Also, the episodes w/the new spin-off crew are coming in Episodes I think it was either episodes 20-21 or 21-22 in an article I read online in a two part episode where the 'orginal' team teams up with them to solve a case or something along those lines.

[Mr. Brown]

Giibbs is great but Tony can't have his own i team while working under someone. Gibbs is great and all but I'm more a Tony fan. Gibbs is like the wise, stubborn grandfather who pops in once in a while imparts some knowledge and goes back to the grarage apt in the back yard

[Erased]

You're right. Gibbs has softend up over the last couple years. After killing Ari and then the shit with the bomb on that navy ship blowing up him retiring and stuff. It would make sense that he would maybe take the director job if something fell through with Vance. He's still a badass though. Maybe it's just me but I wish that they would of done more with Mike Franks, the guy that plays him is awesome.

[Mr. Brown]

Franks was the shit but Fornell needs to come back asap

[Erased]

Did anyone watch tonight's episode? It was pretty interesting, they introduced the new team for the spin-off. I think it might be alright. I'm still on the fence about it though.

[Mr. Brown]

Its was like the team was to good at their job, I don't like the best of the best format they are tryin to create with that one. It's the quirks that make team Gibbs so great

[Erased]

Agreed. Although I did kind of like how they said that Macy was the one agent that was investigating Gibbs when he killed the guy that killed his family, I'm still on the fence on Agent Callen he's too *Gibbsy* for me. I'm hoping that when NCIS goes off for the season they bring the spin-off on so we can see & learn more about the new characters.

Now onto the real show...Who do you think will be the one to leave? The stuff I've been reading online...multiple sources say it WON'T be Tony so, I'm leading towards McGee or Ziva...possibly ducky because well he's old...maybe McGee will get transfered over to the Los Angeles team, which I think I would watch more because I like McGee.

[Erased]

WTFUCK was that episode tonight!? I'm glad that Rivken got his ass shot...dumb bastard. Someone should vbookie that Ziva is going to get shot dead next week by Gibbs. This show has a thing for killing of main women charaters.

[Mr. Brown]

Ziva dying would not be a good move b/c it would be to predictable. Someone from the current cast should go to the spin off or it's going to be very hard for current fans to just make the leap.
