Review of NCIS: Los Angeles 1X11 Breach by Sandy and Carina

written by admin

Dear NCIS:
So, after the hustle and bustle of the Christmas holidays were over and the ringing in of a New Year complete, I couldn’t wait for the new episode of NCIS: Los Angeles. I set the timer on my TV, grabbed a cup of hot cocoa, and settled down to tune in.

Review of NCIS: Los Angeles 1X09 Random on Purpose by Bethany and Sandy

written by admin

Dear NCIS,

Random on Purpose was touted as the “Abby episode.” I have to admit that I read most of the spoilers and was excited to see what Shane Brennan had in store for us. I have had trouble in the past connecting with the show, but I figured with Abby in the episode, it [...]

Review of NCIS:Los Angeles 1X06 Keepin’ it Real by Tejas and BJ

written by admin

Dear NCIS,
I think one of the problems I’ve been having with NCIS: Los Angeles is that in an effort to, I suppose, distinguish the show from its parent, NCIS, it sometimes goes overboard in setting the scene. The opening of Keepin’ It Real showed us a clichéd “L.A.” party complete with slow motion, bouncing breasts [...]

Review of NCIS:Los Angeles 1X05 Killshot by Carina and Sandy

written by admin

Dear NCIS,
So, first and foremost, I have to admit that I had my reservations about this episode. The idea of a show, spin-off or not, resorting to the “crossover” cliché in the first season didn’t appeal to me. Surprisingly it was handled better than I expected.
The episode starts off with a couple enjoying the sun [...]

Review of NCIS: Los Angeles 1X04 Search and Destroy by tejas and Carina

written by admin

Dear NCIS,
Things are starting to come together on the character front and that’s very nice to see, though could we ease up on the angst anvils? The plotting? Not so much. In fact, the plot holes in Search and Destroy should get separate billing in the credits.
Carina says:
I agree with you as far as the [...]

Review of NCIS: Los Angeles 1 X 02 The Only Easy Day by tejas and BJ

written by admin

Dear NCIS,
The second episode of NCIS: Los Angeles was a decent outing for a new show.  The story itself was of less interest than the further explorations of the characters.  Three Navy SEALs (one who’d been trained by Sam), apparently gone rogue; stealing millions from drug dealers, ended being on a mission to avenge the [...]

Dear NCIS: Los Angeles,
In my initial review of the opening episode Identity I focused on how the concept and characters worked as a whole. Now I’d like to talk specifically about the first episode, the plot and what we find out about [...]

NCIS:LA “Identity”

written by admin

Dear NCIS:
Every year the Paley Center for Media hosts a series of Fall TV Preview Parties.  When I saw they were including NCIS: LA on the schedule for the CBS night along with several other shows, I grabbed tickets and invited a friend to go with me.  There were a couple of moments where I [...]
