Ziva is too classy for DiNozzo. Besides, it would go against the rules and change the whole balance of the show.

Though I like Jamie, Thanks for letting us know that Jamie Lee Curtis's role will not be on this season. She was an irritant.
As for killing with a knife, it is quieter and more personal. He knew the knife would hurt and was fatal. Dearing was not going to reappear. The plot on NCIS LA kept me alert and wondering as to what was really going on. Ah, life returned to normal at the end. Glad of that as I was not fond of Hettie's replacement.

This was probably my least favorite NCIS ever. Yes, Gibbs stabbed Dearing because it was personal, and I had hoped that Gibbs would have reached the point in his life where he was above revenge, since in my opinion, that makes him no better than Dearing. The first time he was young, and his family died. Things were different this time.

As much as I like Jamie Lee Curtis, I disliked her character and won't miss her.

The McGee bit was odd, and he didn't get much play. And he's put back most if not all of his weight. He was way too thin at the end of last season, but I suppose they'll make him lose some again. I kind of like his 'baby face'.

No matter what, I'm so glad it's back!! And NCIS LA has grown on me, Heddy is fabulous.

I love both shows. I have been patiently awaiting their return. Although I was a bit dissappointed in NCIS, it seemed a tad slow not as catchy as usual. But I have no doubts it will get better. Now I am just waiting for a few others for their returns and I will be happy. Sure tired of all the summer stuff.

I just showed my husband an old movie that Mark Harmon was in years ago----Summer School. He didn't realize that Harmon has played so many different so many different rolls. Anybody remember Sam? He SCARED me when he played Ted Bundy! :shock:

I've been a Mark Harmon fan since I saw him in The Presidio. I love a good mystery with handsome men. I watched NCIS LA, and like Linda Hunt as Hetty. The guy with the incredible hulk muscles needs to buy bigger shirts. :)

you can watch the show at http://www.cbs.com/shows/ncis/
I just finished watching

I also felt the show was very anticlimactic. Just didn't have the umph that it usually does. After waiting all summer for the conclusion to the cliffhanger show of early spring, I was truly disappointed. However, I have hopes that it will get better as the series goes on as it is one of my favorite shows ..... and I don't watch many. Wonder if this will be the last year for the series?

it was guieter and more intimate. remember gibbs said that deering hurt his "family".

Thanks so much for saving me from having to search for this. I had two conflicting meetings to attend. I think the last few years' opening shows have tried to accomplish too much.
