Wondered if anyone else is a fan of NCIS?
NCIS is short for Naval Criminal Investigative Service and the series stars Mark Harmon (Chicago Hope), Michael Weatherly (Dark Angel), David McCallum (Invisible Man, Man from UNCLE) and Pauley Perrette.
Harmon plays Supervisory Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, Weatherly Senior Special Agent Anthony "Tony" DiNozzo, McCallum Doctor Donald "Ducky" Mallard and Perrette Abigail "Abby" Sciuto.
Although a spin off of JAG (which we have never seen in the UK), NCIS arrived on terrestrial TV in 2006 on Five, its been quite a hit for Five and had back to back episodes and season 1 leading straight on to Season 2. Season 3 airs January 5th on Five and day and time slot switch).
I have to say anything services based has my vote, both NCIS is something special. Donald P Bellisario really hits the nail on the head to bring us well acted, great plot action!

I love this show. I was gutted when Sasha Alexander got blown away but still can't wait for the new series to see if Mark Harmon will be coming back or not?

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SHOW. For me it is up there with Firefly. I like it more than I like Btvs. Honestly I like it that much.
JAG isn't all that hot though.

Us terrestrial viewers in the UK just got to see Kill Ari (part 1) last night. Such a great show.
Gerry we have never had JAG over here in the UK, my experience of JAG was seeing it when we were on vacation in Florida and nope I didn't think it was that hot either.
I just hope Lauren Holly doesn't wreck it, where as Alan Dale was around but never seen, I get the impression Lauren is going to be in your face most episodes, and I do not like Ziva at all. Can we do a Kate to her?

You are supposed to hate Ziva in the beginning. You'll warm up to her. Lauren Holly adds to the show as well. There is great tension between her and Mark Harmon, cause you know Gibbs and redheads. . .
Don't get me wrong, I like JAG, but it's one of those shows I'll watch, but not reccommend other s to watch.

I am presuming that Jenny is where the "never sleep with your co-worker" rule came from with Gibbs when there was a will-they-won't-they bit with him and Kate.
I harbour hostility to Lauren Holly as she almost single-handedly wrecked Chicago Hope. Yep - I hold grudges!

I am sorry if I spoiled it with the info about the death of Kate in my previous post and I have just noticed that I have posted about Gibbs too. Try and forget you ever saw that. Sorry again babe. :-( I keep forgetting that not everybody in the UK has Sky

I knew about Kate via the same reason... Plus seeing Jenny as a red head and oooh, Gibbs has a thing for redheads (there's a lot of that going around eh, Scullow! ). You are such a sweetie to worry though!

I am such a sucker for any shade of red but strangely I have only ever been out with one and I was about 12 at the time. So it's all her fault.

You should do, but Five are re-running NCIS Season 1 on Saturday's around 7:30, but this coming Saturday it's 8:15. They are about half-way through the season 1 re-runs. Season 3 is on a Friday night at 9:00. If you don't get a chance to catch the season 1 re-runs let me know and I'll write you up a synopsis to bring you up to speed. But you should be able to jump in pretty much okay. Enjoy, it is such a great show!

I like NCIS. I am not wactching the current season though. My mom is a HUGE fan of the show though and i would always watch it with her. I love Michael Weatherly too from his Dark Angel days and he is very funny on NCIS. I missed Kate...but i like Zeva as well. I went to grad school with that actress, Cote de Pablo...she was in my graduate thesis play actually.

I turned some friends onto NCIS during the 3rd season. I let them borrow the season 1 DVDs. They fell in love with Kate. When they finally got to the end of season 2 they blamed me for Kate. I seriously broke their hearts by letting them borrow DVDs.

Speaking of DVDs... Are there any extras on the S1 R1 DVD, all we have on the R2 one are the episodes, no extras at all.
