No everyone should watch Downton Abbey, CSI, Person of Interest, BBT, Mike & Molly, Revenge, Mom, Madame Secretary.....I could go on and on. LOL

I would at one time have said that about NCIS but since they added that horrible Bishop I no longer can.

I was with you on Person of Interest until they killed off Carter and all this Samaritan crap, now they've lost me. .


Haven't watched Revenge or Madame Secretary...... I'm sort of still watching the NCIS's but we moved and now have satellite, I'm having a hard time prying DH off the murder shows on ID   

Same here. I watched Revenge for maybe 2 seasons then missed a few and totally got lost with all the new people who showed up. As for NCIS I got really tired of silly Tony and strutting Ziva after a while. But the kicker with NCIS was when they killed off Mike Franks - I never forgave them for that.

Have never seen Madame Secretary.

[Chocolate Lover]

I didn't start at the beginning with NCIS so I wasn't really attached to Mike Franks.

We watch NCIS at our house.  With Gibbs & Abbey.

I love NCIS. Stopped watching NCIS LA because of all the violence and over seas undercover farce. NCIS New Orleans is refreshing for now.

I mentioned this on another thread.
NCIS used to be one of my top 5 favorite shows until last year when they brought in that horrible, awful Bishop character. Worst replacement ever! She sucks the life out of every scene she is in and takes away from the other cast members.
While I still watch I don't watch it first run anymore. I watch a week later on demand because whether my watching counts or not I will NOT contribute to their ratings until she is gone!


On a more positive note my favs on this show are McGee, Abbey and Ducky.

I never watched the LA version but am enjoying NO!

[Deleted]

Oh, I can't do NO. The accents, oh the accents...

Bishop is really not anywhere near the strength of Ziva or even Kate...

You know what is so funny is I can handle Scott Bakula's fake accent but the guy Chris, who is a natural born southerner, I cannot bear his accent. It is so thick it sounds unreal and I have a hard time understanding about 50% of what he says.

So I can't believe they killed off Diane the funny ex wife. I really liked her and Fornell. All the shows they were in were hilarious.
I really wish shows would quit killing off the good characters. Like Mike Franks too.

And then they subject us to Jeri Ryan as wife #2? Never really liked her in anything she has done, always seems so arrogant. I think they could have found a better actress. JMHO

[ken a.k.a OMK]

How many wives did Gibbs have, 4, 5? And Diane ended up with Fornell. Gibbs never got over the murder of his first wife and daughter.

As Ducky said in one episode "Married 4 times divorced 3".

Do you remember ducky in I Spy?

No sorry that was a little before my time.

How young are you I hope I'm not breaking any laws here.

Got the wrong show for ducky. It was Man from Uncle.

David Keith McCallum Jr. (born 19 September 1933) is a British actor and musician. He is best known for his roles as Illya Kuryakin, a Russian secret agent, in the television series The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (1964–68), as interdimensional operative Steel in Sapphire & Steel, and for his current role as NCIS medical examiner Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard in the American television series NCIS.

LMAO! I am 48. While I have seen a lot of shows from the 60's Man from UNCLE is not one of them. BTW I knew which show you were talking about.

[busymom]

LOL! I was a kid when the Man from U.N.C.L.E. was on television. My Dad used to watch it.

Now they're showing reruns here on late night t.v.  My DD was surprised how cute "Ducky" was when he was young.

I remember him from The Man From U.N.C.L.E.     Shows my age 

If they want to spice up NCIS they should bring back Tony's true love - the girl who was the daughter of the gun runner.

I really haven't watched NCIS with any regularly in about two/three years so I hit and miss it now. It was a favorite for a while.

NCIS LA - I couldn't get into it from the start even though I tried. NCIS - NO - catch it on occassion.


ETA: just saw the other post about MF UNCLE - guess I should read further before replying  

[cael]

We love NCIS! My DH is still mourning the loss of Ziva for Tony; he has a huge man crush on Tony and actually legitimately got teary at their final scene. I don't mind LA, but I watched like two episodes of New Orleans... ehhhhhhh no thanks.

I don't mind Bishop but yeah, she's no Ziva (or even Kate for that matter, who I never really got attached to...)

I hate to admit this but I didn't see the final season with Ziva so I have no clue how all that ended. Guess I should check it out. Did they declare their undying love for each other? 

[zibazinski]

No fan of Ziva, all her moaning and groaning got old. Bad character, always bitching and grumpy. Can't see what Tony saw in her even on tv. Figured he always has a crush on coworker thing. I liked his gun runner daughter chick. I liked Kate, she was good and spunky. Bishop is getting better. No more total immaturity. I think the show doesn't know quite what to do with her. They already had a brain and a go get em character, so where does she fit in? She doesn't, yet. Gibbs, Abby, and Ducky? Great! I don't see the big deal with the ex wife. No one I know would cry crocodile tears over their ex. Especially one who had behaved as she did. That floors me.

[NoNamePerson]

But I thought her father was HAWT from the git go - one good looking dude in his youth too  

[zibazinski]

[mroped]

"...where does she fit.." 
Talking about Ziva?
She was fitting quite nice in those pants! And the Krav-Maga moves... Oh my, oh my!

[cael]

Let me think. We were led to believe they spent a night together, there was some tender hugs and words at the end, then he left. (Was that it?)

I don't know, we loved Ziva, she was a badass, her personality was justified enough for me by the background/back story they gave her.

I took a women's Krav Maga intro class once and hoooooly crap... I was sore for days!!! We had to get out from under a 300lb guy at the end (it was weird... he's pinning you down and going "come on, you can do it!" at the same time) That shit is no joke

[zibazinski]

If I had a 300 pound guy on me, I'd never see the light of day again. Wow! I'm impressed anyone can do something like this. I'm sure Ziva got tired of always moaning and groaning, too. Who could like being around anyone with a constant chip on her shoulder?

I haven't either.  The last episode I remember watching had Ducky having a heart attack on a beach.  I think it was a part 1 and I never got back to see part 2.  And then the kids were little and I didn't want them seeing dead bodies. 

I got started on NCIS when nursing DD at my Mom's.  So in 2008/2009 I started on reruns.  I still love Abbey, McGee, Ducky and Gibbs.  And I sometimes wonder about the 1st assistant Ducky had - the one who got shot in the shoulder?  Gerald maybe?  I know he came back or was referred once or twice as healing nicely.

You know what is so funny is I can handle Scott Bakula's fake accent but the guy Chris, who is a natural born southerner, I cannot bear his accent. It is so thick it sounds unreal and I have a hard time understanding about 50% of what he says.

  He's perfectly intelligible, you should hear some of the real rednecks around here. I hate Bakula's fake accent, it's not even good "southern" much less NO.

Not even close. I love the dialect true NO'ers use. Just be careful when asking directions cause they will say "you go three, two or four blocks down that way"

LOL! True, NO is one of those accents you just know, and you know when it's wrong.
