    No more Zoe, and so the Tony leaving arc begins...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭aaaaaaaahhhhhh


    Any ideas who could possibly take his place???????
    Dinozzo Sr?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Just catching up on NCIS tonight. Loved the Ducky episode!

    Watching the NOLA crossover now. I dont like NOLA really.

    Gutted that Tony is leaving. Absolutely GUTTED!!!! I would prefer if they ended it this season if Tony is going. It cannot be NCIS with out him.

    They're reportedly looking to cast two young actors as regulars next year.

    hopefully that means that Bishop is leaving too!!!! :D:D:D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I can't see them ending it even if Harmon leaves as it's still the number 1 show in the States.

    Until the ratings drop off a cliff it will keep going.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    hopefully we will get to see a few more appearances from Di Nozzo Snr before Tony leaves


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I'd like to see them bring Borin in full time.

    Unlikely. She's too much like Gibbs and I think the marketing people, in order to capture new or casual viewers, would want fresh faces.

    Despite the Weatherly's departure they've done remarkably well to hang onto the most main characters for over a decade.

    Really liked 13.13. Great little scene for Jimmy and the ending was just class.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    I really liked it as well it was a good story.

    Though the second the bad guy came on screen I new he was going to be the bad guy.



    But I still can't warm to Bishop though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    It was an ok episode. A few things annoyed me. At one point bishop referred to two women missing. But it was actually one missing and one dead. And then again later she kind of mis counted again with regards to the women. But maybe I am wrong. Was tired. Anyway. I don't get why she was writing to a dead president.

    When it started I thought it might have been her resignation, to go back to the NSA. Or else it was just an un-sendable letter - venting. Did same like they were trying to make a point about human trafficking - perhaps the accuracy of numbers got lost.

    I enjoyed the crossover episode. I never really watched NCIS before and just started with NOLA from day 1 because I was a Scott Bakula fan, plus CCH Pounder was a draw. Good episode and a good intro to the original NCIS crew. Have to say though that Abbey who was the center of the episode has to be the most annoying and stupid character I've seen in quite a while. How a total Woman-Child like that manages to hold down a career doesn't seem credible. Maybe it was just a bad representation of the character and I know NOLA has geeky Sebastian but at least he's funny. Aside from the huge head start NCIS has which mitigates against a start from scratch approach, Abbey I think would kill any inerest I have in the show, and that's saying something for a show with David McCallum.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Wow. I think you must be the first person I have ever heard say they don't like Abbey

    I dunno! Maybe she just didn't come across well in the crossover but she came across as deranged, needy and annoying and the whole dressing and acting like a kid when you're in your 40's just looks crazy stupid! I spent the entire time wanting to bludgeon her to death, or hoping a killer with a grudge would come back and do it for me!

    Isn't that the show, in general? :pac: I was very casual viewer of NCIS before I watched a full episode. I'd see 10 minutes here and there and at that time, it grated for me. Different story now, of course, whilst not forgetting how uber-procedural the show can be, from moment to moment. Abby's got a few quirks and ticks that seem largely there for comic relief. Won't deny it's often OTT, even allowing for 'odd' characters. She's very much physically bound by her lab. I would like to see her testify on the stand, but that's a direction the show has never taken with any of the characters. Since the show owes some its origins to JAG, they must feel courtroom stuff's been done to death. Heck, even throw her out to a forensic conference now and then.

    I am a complete woman child and I manage to somehow hold down a job! It can be done :D

    How do ye think Tony will leave the show? They'll hardly kill him off? I don't think Gibbs Ducky Abbey and Magee can take much more loss. Especially Gibbs. Tony is like the son he never had!

    Im thinking a few things so far, i dont think they will kill him off either so:

    1. he'll be offered a promotion and his own squad and leave.

    2. he'll get some sort of clue about ziva's location in Israel, quits his job and goes searching for her and never comes back.

    3. he'll meet a woman thats he thinks is the one and wants to have kids and a family etc, she wants him to quit the job due to it being too dangerous after he gets shot, and she reveals shes pregnant with his kid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    I think more no1 and no2 than no3. No3 is a bit melodramatic.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,672 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    Ace's third idea made me go 'ooh'.

    I don't think they will him off. Ratings aside, the show might only have a few years left (pure guesswork here) and I think they'll want to leave the door open for such a long standing character to return when they eventually get to a series finale.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,675 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    Only just got up to date with season 13. what were the producers thinking putting the second part of a two-parter in a different show? I get to the end of episode 12 with ducky and jimmy staring down the barrel of a gun and then the next episode starts with not a mention of what happened. I was confused as hell until i went online and found out where the second part was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭aaaaaaaahhhhhh


    Thinking outside the box.
    Thought it was a good idea TBH and got you involved in both shows.

    It's quiet common with shows in a shared universe.

    Law & Order, CSI, Chicago Fire, P.D. & Med, Arrow & Flash have or are all doing it now at least once a season.

    It's done to boost ratings.

    Check out the character John Munch from Homicide: Life on the Street who not just crossed over shows but crossed over Networks and shows in different Countries.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    I have to say the law and order cross over with Chicago Fire and Chicago PD last year was one of the best cross overs on tv I have ever seen, just brilliant drama. The cross overs with Chicago Fire PD and Med are really well done. I really like them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,675 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    I get that crossovers have become commonplace but i dont think i have seen an instance with a two-part episode where the two parts were on different shows.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Didn't they do it with NCIS and Hawaii Five O. a while back? And I think with NCIS LA too? correct me if I am wrong.

    well i watched the NOLA second part and safe to say i wont be watching NOLA again. its just not a patch on the original. even CCH Pounder cant redeem it.

    Was expecting a new episode this week, bah.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭aaaaaaaahhhhhh


    http://www.returndates.com/news.php?id=528

    "To be introduced in time for the Season 13 finale, the CBS drama is seeking a "name" actress to play "Tess," an FBI Special Agent in her late 30s who has recently transferred to D.C. from New York City's Counter-Terrorism Unit. Described in the tentative casting breakdown as "quick-witted, sarcastic, shrewd" and "two parts bulldog, one part sweet kitten," the G-woman can just as easily keep up with a group of politicians talking at a black-tie fundraiser as she can truck drivers at a roadside diner. In her mind, sleep and sex are "overrated" while a good martini and a rare bacon cheeseburger aren't.


    A three-time divorcée (because the husbands apparently "can't keep up with her") who has no children, Tess is content acting as "Mamma Bear" to any co-worker who needs a shoulder to lean on. Just don't make her angry, because that's when she tends to ruffle even her superiors' feathers."

    please tell me that is some sort of joke.

    With Tony gone, the whole Bishop saga, the new gibbs this is the final nail for me.. Moving on..

    Gibbs. Eating. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    Great episode this week. Loved the opening. Magee is so sweet. But Tony??! I think he is my dream man. Pity he is fictional. :rollseyes:

    I don't want him to leave :(

    Same, he will be tough to replace, i hope he gets cameos now and again like mike franks does, but without the whole being dead thing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Ace Attorney


    good ep this week, love fornell!, The last 4 or 5 episodes they keep mentioning how they are like a family and espcially the xmas episode at gibbs house, they are setting it up for the season finale :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭aaaaaaaahhhhhh


    Think we found our new Dinozzo

    Was thinking that's a possibility.

    Straightforward ish episode this week. Enjoyed Ducky laying down the law and the paediatric bandages.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,320 ✭✭✭Ace Attorney


    Using: 'Her' so as not to spoil the episode for those that havent seen it.


    Welp is this the beguining of the end for tonys arc? are they going to lead up to a series finale with her? like i mean are they going to go with a happy finale build up to her for tony?, i think the happy finale with her is a bit too obvious and isnt the NCIS sort of way is to surprising you. what do you guys think?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,672 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    I don't particularly like Taft. He does bounce off Gibbs pretty well, though. The dual phone call was fun, as was the moment Gibbs almost went off on one only to realise it was Taft's wife. Then Gibbs was the healer. Knew it was the therapist in the diner.

    Unhappy times for Tony. I thought the 'whole again' thing might be a hint of Ziva coming back.

    Quite liked this week's, though it was straightforward. It was a great opportunity to see the gang step away from the case, albeit briefly. Good as well to see them come to their own realisations. Only Tim and Delilah would have lights you talk to. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    It's got another 2 seasons this week I'd love to see them being Delilah in as full time cast member.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 735 ✭✭✭aaaaaaaahhhhhh


    Really thought this weeks was good. A lot different kind of format than we're used to, but it worked.
    NOLA on the other hand wasn't great, and tripple P??????? Ffs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,906 ✭✭✭SarahBM


    I just got caught up on the last three episodes. I am dreading the finale. I don't know how they are going finish it off :( I'll be devastated when he leaves :(

    Love Taffe. I think he is great.

    Bishop still wrecks my head.

    Anyone else think there may be something brewing between SecNav and Gibbs?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Regional East Moderators Posts: 18,672 CMod ✭✭✭✭The Black Oil


    It's a credit to team that CBS have faith in it to pick it up for another 2 years. Particularly now with audiences accessing TV across a range of platforms and less so at a dedicated time each week.
