I think that it is time to put NCIS to pasture

I have watched it since say one, but when the characters started making kissy faces, at the expense of the core of the show... This was why several years ago I stopped watching NCIS LA, even though the main characters were great. And today I skipped NCIS.

Last week they had all three area crossing over and I watched only the first one. Have no idea what happened to the professor, did not care.

I like crime shows but not if the police personal lives become the main story

He left and so did I.
It seems all these Cop/Med/Legal/Firehouse plots are all blending together..

They blow up shit every week. Can you imagine if that happened IRL? I don't care how much crime fighting they do, the city would get rid of their hazardous asses in a hurry.

The show is unintentionally funny. It makes me LOL.

Ever since they added Fez it was really hard to take it seriously.



Gary Cole and Katrina Law have been nice additions in my opinion.

Ultimately there are so many of these cop procedurals they need to be character driven. That's why I changed my tune about FBI International. Really nice chemistry on that show.

We're longtime fans. We were just talking the other day, time to put a lid on this one.
