NCIS

[jrogers]

Best show on TV .... IMHO

Go watch The Shield, The Wire, Justified​, and Breakng Bad. Every one of those is a crime drama with superior plotting, writing, and acting.

Although honestly CBS hasn't been really trying for well over a decade. They know the Buick-driving, Metamucil-swilling crowd will never abandon them for programs that require viewer effort.

I think this is the draw to these shows. I watch as the spouse really likes them but there is no real effort from here to shoot the plot/story line full of holes. I get really irritated at times from some of the non-sense but there is not a lot else to watch.

Two words: Agent David.

[churchmouse]

Do you mean DaVeed

Do you mean DaVeed

Correct. Pronounced "Dah VEED," but spelled "David."

Bottom line: sufficient reason to declare the show awesome (while she was on it).

Yeah, Kate was my favorite...even though I don't drive a Buick or swill Metamucil.

I just think the female agent role on NCIS like being the drummer in Spinal Tap. Heck, even the female head of NCIS died fairly quickly. Abby must have made a deal with the devil to last this long.

I get irritated because the NCIS shows seem to constantly try to sell the idea of how great big government is.

Yes, but then pretty much EVERY show on TV does that.

I disagree. NCIS has been worse than most. Bones for one will sometimes go the opposite way. I always found it surprising when I noticed.

I know what you're talking about. There have been times, they'll do something during an investigation and I'm sitting there, with my blood pressure ticking up a bit.
