REVIEW: NCIS – 8.15 “Defiance”

Well, that’ll get my interest for the show! Right off the bat we see an injured Tony (Michael Weatherly) and a rather worn looking McGee (Sean Murray). Moments later, Director Vance (Rocky Carroll) pulls up and threatens to take the pairs badges of “this” isn’t cleaned up. Oh no! Of course, Gibbs will clear it all up. But how? And how did we get to this point??

Rewind! Three days earlier… NCIS has hired themselves an uncanny Hillary Clinton [Read more...]

REVIEW: NCIS – Episode 8.14 “A Man Walks Into a Bar…”

The doctor is in. Is the NCIS team is out, of their minds? Turns out the team is way overdue for the psych evaluations. Being the best NCIS team in the world, our guys are always on the go, so Dr. Rachel Cranston (Wendy Makkena) tags along to investigate the shooting of a Naval Commander. Agent DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) makes an excellent first impression on the Doc as she walks up during his Man o’ War (horse) impression. But, he nails Agent McGee well when Dr Cranston says most people talk about their sex lives. That rules McGee (Sean Murray) out…

The doctor takes no time at all breaking into Ziva’s [Read more...]

REVIEW: NCIS – Episode 8.13 “Freedom”

Hooray! Jimmy Palmer (Brian Dietzen) is back! Sorry, I don’t know why, but I like the character. He’s a brief relief from the same-ol-same-ol. Anywho, on with the show! This week’s NCIS introduces us to a dead Marine, his nearly emotionless high school sweetheart wife, his girls-gone-wild girlfriend, and a potentially sleezy bar owner. Who dunnit?

The plot thickens when we find out [Read more...]

REVIEW: NCIS – Episode 8.12 “Recruited”

This week the NCIS team has to solve the case of a Recruiter at a high school. And they”ll have to do it without Ziva. Much to Tony’s displeasure, Ziva is using her comp time to visit her South Beach Cassanova. I love when Tony is jealous of Ziva’s boyfriends.

Luckily, we do have an interesting [Read more...]

NCIS digs into DiNozzo’s past

NCIS's Tony DiNozzo

TVLine got the scoop on some news that I’m very happy to hear! My very favorite NCIS Special Agent, Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly), will be getting is own origins episode this spring! Hooray! We’ve seen lots of Gibbs (Mark Harmon) backstory over the years. Lately there has been plenty delving into Director Vance’s (Rocky Carroll) past. We were around for McGee’s (Sean Murray) beginnings and we’ve learned most of Ziva’s (Cote de Pablo) as well. But, this is the first we’ll really get to see into Tony’s past.

We know that Tony was [Read more...]

NCIS comes back with a vengeance

NCIS season 8 took no time at all addressing the issues we were left to fret over all summer. It takes only moments to find out what our characters have been doing since the heart stopping moment in May when we left Jackson Gibbs (Ralph Waite) standing face to face with his son’s rival, Mexican drug cartel leader, Paloma Reynosa (Jacqueline Obradors).

While there was a brief moment of panic for me when Tony [Read more...]

Countdown to NCIS!

If you’re half as excited as I am for next week’s “NCIS” season eight premiere, then you’ll know how great it was to see these photo’s from next Tuesday’s episode Spider and the Fly. Notably absent from the pictures are Cote de Pablo, Pauley Perrette, and Sean Murray. But, no doubt they’ll be in the episode!

When we left Agent Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) and his team at the end of last season, it was quite a cliffhanger! While lots of good things happened, like [Read more...]
