  • Summary: From Donald P. Bellisario comes NCIS, a show bringing us the inner workings of the government agency that investigates all crimes involving Navy and Marine Corps personnel, regardless of rank or position. From murder and espionage to terrorism and stolen submarines, these special agents traverse the globe to investigate all crimes with Navy or Marine Corps ties. Leading this team that operates outside of the military chain of command is Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon), a skilled investigator and interrogator who is smart, tough and willing to bend the rules to get the job done. Working under Gibbs is Special Agent Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly), a former homicide detective who has instincts that can come only from working on the streets. Joining them is Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette), a gifted forensics specialist whose dark wit matches her goth-style hair and clothes, and Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard (David McCallum), a medical examiner. Through season one a new character has been introduced -- special agent Tim McGee (Sean Murray, "The Random Years") whose computer skills will be a very big part of the NCIS team. Special Agent Caitlin "Kate" Todd (Sasha Alexander, "Dawson's Creek"), a former United States Secret Service agent, has brought her intelligence and gutsy personality to the team through first 2 seasons, until during her duty in season two finale, when she was murdered by a terrorist. In season three, the NCIS team welcomed Mossad Agent Ziva David (Cote de Pablo), who took Kate's place in the team, and the NCIS team got a new director, Jenny Shepard (Lauren Holly). After Holly's departure at the end of Season 5, the position of the NCIS director was taken over by Leon Vance (Rocky Carroll). Expand

    Great start to a wonderful show. Many of the characters in this series are deeper and more complex than their competition, and offer an almost unlimited direction and scope to grow into. Unlike other procedural crime shows, this one mixes the serious and the funny with quirky humor and enlightened gags. Many of the story arcs are short, but they are introducing many others that are proving interesting and should provide viewers some fun. The writing is done well, and the acting is even better. I would like to see some more of the back-story of some of the leads, and maybe a bit more action; not necessarily shooting or car chases, but more mental or in-depth action. Expand

  3. This show is not original, has boring situations, & not the best setting per episode but, you know what makes this show work it's the characters they are just so quirky and fun that it's infectious, the chemistry of the cast they have so much chemistry that you turn that chemistry into pure energy it would have enough power to cause a continental explosion, and the nice but slow character development. The characters are also very intricate and extremely strong in personality but, I guess they have to to compensate for the show's bland nature and this show does still bore you in the first 8 min. of an episode though.
