Oh, it's FOX. I've stopped paying any attention to their previews, because they're almost always misleading, if not an outright lie.

"OK, it's Bizarro land, who wants to do what?" Sweets sings rather nicely.

This is what I loved. Everyone was a metaphor for themselves. Personalities were basically the same (except for straight laced tech turned rap impresario) but exercised in a different context.

I twigged the coma thing straight away and was pre-emptively diassapointed, but in the end enjoyed the ride.

Blond tech being so badass was fun too.

folks who really wanted a B/B are probably gnashing their teeth tonight.

If there's any overlap with the NCIS audience, there's still the big Tony/Ziva hookup to come. Maybe that will serve as a consolation prize.

No, no Tiva! No B/B! Hookups ruin shows. And Tiva would totally blow any hope of Tibbs right out of the water. Even Weatherly said it would be more interesting if Gibbs were bi-curious than to go the route of Tiva.

I'm rewatching my Season 1 NCIS disks, and I can see some of the vibe that would feed the Tibbs thing, but I don't picture Gibbs in a relationship with a co-worker. And it's hard to imagine the power outlines in a relationship with Tony because they are not status equals.

but I don't picture Gibbs in a relationship with a co-worker.

Ah, no, the famous Rule Twelve! Never date a co-worker. That doesn't stop the slash-ficcers, though. Thank heavens. Hee. And the relationship is more interesting because the power isn't equal.

Besides, S1 has Tony mentioning the last time he stayed at Gibbs' place and Gibbs saying "You remember what happened," then "the door's unlocked."

any hope of Tibbs

Was there really any? I completely don't see it. Also, isn't talk of an eventual Tiva spoilery?

Sweets sings rather nicely.

Yeah, it was nice seeing that part of John Francis Daley. He got his start in the touring productions of Tommy as young Tommy and auditioned several times for the part of Gavroche in Les Miz, but was always too short.

Was there really any?

In show reality? No. Too many redheaded actresses to feed into Gibbs fetish, they can play with that forever. But the show is totally slashtastic, whether you're looking for Tibbs, Tony/Tim, Tim/Gibbs, hell, Fornell/Gibbs. One rerun today ("Leap of Faith") had Tim and Tony waiting to interview a shrink and they got into an argument that made the shrink think they were there for couples therapy.

I don't think talking about Tiva is spoilery. Whether or not they end up in the sack eventually, it's definitely implied that there has been something building between them for a long time. They started laying down that arc with Ziva's overbearing concern that something was wrong with Tony when he first started the undercover op with Jeanne Benoit two seasons ago. Tiva exists, whether it ever gets to a physical relationship or not is the only thing to be seen and there's been massive specualation about that forever.
