This weeks and basically the whole 21st seasons episodes seem like they are rushing through everything and even Ducky's memorial should have been an hour or two with all cast members who weren't killed off paying respects! No Tobias, No Ellie, No Abby, No Ziva and 13-14 year old Tali, no Gibbs, No Dinozzo Sr, the Sherlock's, Jack Sloane, Quinn, Gerald his first assistant, the Secretary of the Navy, Higher ups from Edinburgh, Scotlands medical school, etc. For a man to play such a character on par with Mr. Spock or one of thr Cartwrights you'd expect a little more thoroughfare than a pathetic fast case, crooked politician and Tony showing up looking 30-40 lbs heavier than when he left. Jag which is the show all these have spun off of was a daytime soap for the elderly in the 90s my grandparents watched and Harm & Mac got out of every situation due to Admiral A. J. Chegwidden another Jethro or Deux Machina! Poor Pud Roberts as I refer to him lost a child a leg and after almost 30 years, Jag started in 1995, he's just a Captain? No stars? Plus that lady who tricked her boyfriend has been on every NCIS multiple times! It's like they know with Origins and the Ziva & Tony show NCIS is just gonna be a cookie cutter, run of the mill mediocre show! Sad! 20 great seasons only to go out with a whimper! Plus of all the people not killed off why couldn't they kill off Vance? I was tired of him after 2 seasons! Jenny and Jethro had that sexual tension. Vance is there for a reason we all know why! Clayton Reeves was great especially with Ellie & Torres! They & he wanted to continue but they couldn't agree on his characters direction so the offed him! Same with Ziva. She was tired of her characters path and instead of changing it offed her and now her and Tony who only quit Bull because of sexual harassment get a show and unless NCIS picks it up this or next will be their last season! NOLA was great but absolutely ridiculous 3-4 agents fighting a whole town! LA never made sense to me and I hated it! It's like this decades version of Chips meets Charlie's Angels! Sydney may not come back! I couldn't understand half of what they said and the Americans don't wear guns! Hawaii is too focused on the characters like the lesbian couple and Jane and Jesse. It's a yawn fest! You can only do so much on an island that only takes 2 hours to drive around. I'm afraid by 2025-2027 all NCIS shows will be ended but it's about time and had a great run! Like Taylor Sheridan and Yellowstone they spread themselves too thin! You can only have so many criminal variations and in reality they wouldn't be involved with terrorism, they're just cops, that's it! Not assassin, spies all black belts and expert marksman. They are cops, period!
