It's kind of like Burn Notice during seasons 1 - 4 (before Burn Noticed turned into a shitfest).<br /><br />There's that season 5 episode (or was it 4?) where Ziva is kidnapped... Tony+McGee get themselves kidnapped as well as part of a rescue mission, and then all three are interrogated by that one Arabic actor that somehow always ends up playing the terrorist on this kind of show in an extremely stereotypical "middle of the dessert" building (but I digress). Anyway, eventually he asks Tony+McGee how they found him, and they reveal that it was due to him ordering CafPow, since apparently no one else in that area does so. I mean, seriously, a terrorist being brought down because of a caffeine drink? <br /><br />It doesn't help much that right after this, Gibbs shoots the guy from a distance that is clearly shown to be well over two miles, and yet in the next frame, Gibbs is already inside of the building before Tony/etc even get to the door. <br /><br />Yeah, NCIS is pretty silly. But it has some great characters. To this day I wonder if it would have been a more serious show if Sasha Alexander hadn't decided to leave.Qnoreply@blogger.com
