Yeah.

Bummer. I liked that show.

ita, I KNOW.

NBC's assurances do not make me happy.

I thought the show was a waste of whatever rights they were paying the UK, though. It had nothing to do with the original series. No throughline at all. Nothing save names.

But it was becoming a decent cop drama. They were getting less thoroughly unlikeable.

NBC, you're on the list.

apparently the first couple of episodes did borrow plots from the original. I wouldn't know because I didn't care for the series that much.

I agree though, that the series didn't even have a passing resemblance to the originary.

Me too.

NCIS: I rather like the idea of DiNozzo and a chaplain. He could use a female friend that doesn't beat up people, plus her job shortcircuits most of his female-coping methods--despite the naughty Catholic schoolgirl remark, which I'm pleased that the chaplain ignored.

I came into the ep late, was Tony's terror of children mentioned earlier?

And DiNozzo Sr. next week! I've often thought that Michael Weatherly looks a lot like Robert Wagner.

Weatherly actually played Wagner in a tv movie about Natalie Wood a few years before NCIS began.

He made oblique references to being afraid of something, but never said what. The chaplain had been riding him about that fear all ep.

And I also really like her as a friend for Tony. Last week, I was afraid they were going to put her up as a potential love interest for Gibbs, which she's way too young for, so having her and Tony as platonic friends would be great.

Speaking of Gibbs and the ladies, I liked the flashbacks to the female Marine of his youth; it reinforced that he definitely has an eye for strong and forthright women (see Hollis Mann, Jenny Shepherd, as well as Shannon).

I think she'd be great as a walk-on friend/spiritual advisor for the whole team. It's an angle that could be explored to great interest, and she's supposed to be at the Navy Yard already, so she's handy.
