I have watched these from the beginning and always thoroughly enjoyed them because of the characters, the multi-faceted working relationships and occasional extra-curricular one , the scientific expertise - and Gibbs! - but this new series (of which last night was the second) is a total duffer I'm afraid. Its become banal and BORING.
Yes I understand that we have grown older with Gibbs and his crew dashing about saving the world from fiends and monsters, but now the emphasis seems well-and-truly stuck onto "relationships" and taking about said relationships endlessly, last week was McGee wittering on about his potential bird (in a wheelchair of course to keep it all nicely PC) and this week was Tony's worthless freeloading father turning up yet again to get involved. For a start, how come Pa Di Nozzo just gets to saunter into the offices of a govt. special agency on the Naval Yard anyway, particularly with the high state of security these days? I guess next week it will be Eleanor's turn to talk about "relationships" for which my belovéd Gibbs will have to sort it all out for her like he has done the others. BAH
This is NOT the NCIS I like for if I wanted this simpering load of old twaddle then I'd be watching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman of some other such bunkum smiley-angry
Initially I was not that bothered about NCIS Los Angeles but I am now of the opinion that this is the one that still retains the qualities of old NCIS before it went all Right-ON, PC and luvvie on me. Whether Mark Harmon (Gibbs is now producing the show hence why he's taking a back seat more and more) thinks this is what we want or is winding down his branch of the franchise I don't know but after these past two episodes to me it looks like NCIS is dying a convoluted death. I also read that Michael Weatherly is leaving too so perhaps it is the end of the original show after all? Maybe they'll marry him off to that bossy bird Zoe and he'll become a house husband or something in keeping with being PC?
I am very sad to see how rubbishy NCIS has become. Now maybe if they bring back Ziva she might just save the show but based on the past two eps it looks to me pretty much that we are witnessing the end of an era - what am I going to do without Gibbs eh?
