Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

NCIS cheated us out of changing scenes--Leverage did us good.

That near-kiss on NCIS proper is disgusting. She's a harridan.

I like the actress just fine (you'll always be Lois to me, Rena Sofer!), and I kind of enjoy hating her character right now, but I'm not down with her being a love interest. I hope they're not actually going there.

I hope they're not actually going there.

I'm hoping Gibbs knows that someone thinks he'll fall for the tough, in-your-face woman and can therefore be manipulated, and is doing some manipulating back. I don't think he's above doing that if he thinks he's dealing with the equivalent of an enemy agent.

The Gibbs I've seen over the years would not overlook a threat just because she's (kind of) pretty.

He also has a long history of falling for the wrong antagonistic woman.

I was remembering an episode where Gibbs and Ziva both agreed that they'd slept with someone to get information from them, and I've been hoping that Gibbs is still using that level of cold-blooded practicality when dealing with this woman.

I like the actress. I hate the character. Eww. Cooties.

Castle is very rewatchable.

I concur. Vampire Weekend was very rewatchable.

Victor Webster on Criminal Minds tonight. Why does he keep playing the beautiful con man/psychopath ?

Also, the Eyebrows have been joined by the Goatee. I am not a fan.

Victor needed to share screen time with Shemar. Unlawful amounts of pretty.

VW's last role wasn't con man/psycho--unless you feel unkindly towards ad execs. Was he psycho in Harper's Island?

That was a remarkably bleh episode of CM. I admit to a pulse-quickening when it was revealed he had a family--I wasn't expecting that. But I find the ones where we track the killer face on from the start among the weaker.

And very little team interaction.
