NCIS Fans?

[Martina]

i love TV, but usually not procedurals. i do like Bones, but rarely shows like NCIS. i don't care for any of the other forensic science shows. Very few police shows do it for me -- i like the Wire, but that's different. Oh i also like In Plain Sight because the main character is such a quirky strong woman.

ANYWAY, a friend told me to give NCIS a try. i was like, yeah, whatever. So i waited a year and then finally did check it out.

And while it's not innovative tv, i love it. The sexual harrassment banter of the first couple of years -- when Sasha Alexander was on -- annoyed. But otherwise, i have really enjoyed watching it on DVD.

Anyway, it's apprently a top rated show and has been. And it will soon start its 9th season, so i am clearly not the only one. i thought it was like JAG, but it's much better.

This show has wit. The characters may not be deep, but the cases are often truly surprising. And i like the fact that the characters are likable and like each other -- like Bones. It's not as good as Bones. Not saying it is, but it has its own charms.

Any NCIS fans out there? What do you like about the show? Which Director did you like best? What Tony moments annoy or amuse you? Who is your favorite character? All that stuff.
