First thing we did while watching tonight’s show was to find who wrote the script. His name is Christopher Waild. Initially, we concluded that he wasn’t a good writer because the beginning was mostly meaningless college frat-type trash talk. Things did improve though, especially the ending. As suspense authors, it was fun for us to [...]
This episode was really a fun one. Great script writing. It’s creative when the victim’s cell phone starts ringing inside the evidence bag. Also hilarious is when Tony has a verbal exchange with an anonymous caller demanding, “You first ‘wise acre’,” and it turns out to be “The President.” What a hoot. We enjoyed seeing [...]
The entertainment community and internet are abuzz with the shocking news!! Cote de Pablo, who plays Ziva on NCIS, is NOT renewing her contract. She'll only appear on Season Eleven's premiere show. We wonder what the future holds for her. One might look to one of the other long lived series, the Seinfeld show, for [...]
“Seek”, the eighteenth episode of the tenth season of NCIS, is directed by Michael Weatherly. In this episode, Michael had to play his role as Tony DiNozzo in front of the camera and then step behind the camera as the director. What great experience and we wonder where it will lead for him.

The opening scene where a U.S. Naval Officer shows up bloody and wobbling as a woman needs her drains unplugged is reminiscent of “Blazing Saddles” or “City Slickers.” Only tonight’s comedic opener foreshadows a disastrous turn for Jimmy and Ducky. And why did Lt. Gordon Roth die? Jimmy Palmer says it best: “Death by drain [...]
It is good to be back writing to you all after the Christmas holiday. We hope you were blessed by the “reason for the season”. The birth of Jesus is a gift to all people on earth. About tonight’s episode we shout: “Warning”! “Shabbat Shalom” is the first of two installments. If you record your [...]
Though we’ve never given out stars on our NCIS blog, in our view tonight’s performances earn four and a half stars. In this Christmas episode, NCIS writers give us a touching and heartwarming family story. Occasionally the producers feature a popular Hollywood star, which generates excitement among certain viewers. When Jamie Lee Curtis appeared on [...]
Even though this episode is Part 2 of two episodes, it had its distinct personality from Part 1. Tonight the marvelous NCIS team tackled an all too common result of U.S. battles against terrorists in the Middle East. Too many of our soldiers are coming home with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, or what was known [...]
Before we begin critiquing “Psych Out,” tonight’s episode of NCIS that first ran on February 21, 2012, we want to share our good news. Our latest novel “Night Flight,” releases in stores on September 4, 2012. “Night Flight” tells the story of CIA agent Bo Rider’s teenagers, who are introduced to readers in our sixth [...]
Who do you think was the “desperate” man? Detective Burris is with Metro Police and he bursts into the murder scene where his Navy wife has been murdered. Then we learn from the excellent work of McGee and Abby that his wife Mya’s former colleague has gone rogue, selling secrets to America’s enemies. Finally, CIA [...]
