'NCIS' season finale: Too many lives in the balance!

As we expected, the final episode of the season picked up with the terrorist storyline that has dominated the last few episodes. Harper Dearing (Richard Schiff) was still at large, and the team more determined than ever to stop him. But the hour also proved to be a really special one for the characters, who stepped up to make tough choices in the face of immediate and imminent danger. It was an episode that truly brought out the best in every member of the team. Too bad we’re not sure who might live to see next season…

'NCIS' react: Tony reunites with the 'kid from Baltimore'...and it's heartbreaking

I have a deep appreciation for everything about Tony DiNozzo. I love his goofball ways, his pop culture references, and his endless supply of ways to get under McGee’s skin. But like any perpetually lovable character on a TV drama, he also has a host of dark secrets, and when said secrets have a chance to come to the surface as part of a meaty and revealing storyline, it’s a treat for us all. Such an episode of NCIS aired last night.
Friday Night Lights alum Gaius Charles showed up in the episode, guest starring as arson investigator Jason King, best known to fans vaguely as “the kid from Baltimore” who, until last night, we knew little about. In last night’s episode, his past with Tony came to light.
Via flashback, we learned that Jason was much more than just some kid who then-Ohio State student Tony had saved from a fire while taking a stroll one night. Jason was, in fact, one of two kids trapped in that fire — but the only one who was saved. The other was Jason’s sister, and even after many years, Jason still held a grudge against Tony for not helping her escape the fire as well. Of course, as Tony recounted the story to McGee and Ziva, two things became clear: 1) Tony looks better with short hair (Sorry, had to say it!) and 2) there was no way Tony could have saved Jason’s sister that night. A flame-engulfed beam had fallen from above and trapped the girl inside her bedroom just after Tony turned around to save her. At that point, he had to choose whether to save himself and the boy or die trying to save all three. “I chose,” Tony told his co-workers after telling them the story. READ FULL STORY »

Check out a moment from her appearance on the show — including her slick come-on to Agent Gibbs (“I need breakfast”) — here. READ FULL STORY »

'NCIS' react: 'Cherish each other'

These last two NCIS episodes could have easily been a two-parter. Whereas the series often prides itself in its ability to produce stand-alone episodes peppered with character-building stories and tidbits, much of the past two weeks have been all about Tiva.
As you recall, last week saw the return of EJ, who had left Tony for dead last season. At the end of the episode, which saw EJ taking off (presumably for good), Tony and Ziva shared a much-buzzed about encounter, only to be interrupted by a phone call from Ziva’s beau, Ray. (Read my post-episode chat with EP Gary Glasberg here.)
This week’s episode could have easily transitioned into a Ziva/Ray hour and left the Tiva moment like many of their past moments have been: unresolved. But this time, I felt like there was more resolution that ever. And not in the way I expected. READ FULL STORY »

'NCIS': What did you think of last night's buzzy Tony-Ziva moment?
UPDATE: Read what NCIS boss Gary Glasberg has to say about the episode!
The term “slow burn” doesn’t even begin to describe the progression of Tony and Ziva’s could-be romantic relationship on NCIS over the years. But hardcore “Tiva” fans, who have waited patiently for stolen glances and playful interactions to turn into something more, certainly got a bit of a New Year’s treat last night during the show’s first new episode of 2012.
The episode featured a reappearance of EJ, a.k.a. the woman who, as you’ll recall, left Tony for dead. Her emotional reunion with Tony ultimately ended with her leaving (likely for good), but the closure was enough for Tony, who, at the end of the episode, shared a pretty awesome moment with his longtime co-worker. (Watch the moment at CBS. It starts around the 40-minute mark) READ FULL STORY »

'NCIS' season premiere: The chips are on the table

NCIS began its ninth season last night with a bang — three of them to be exact — as Tony’s top-secret mission to “handle” an NCIS traitor ended with him in a hospital trying to remember why blood types were found in the street where he’d been shot in the chest. (He was wearing a vest.) As he recounted his whereabouts from last May to the present to Dr. Rachel Cranston, Caitlin’s sister, we saw in flashbacks how his orders from SECNAV Jarvis played out. In case you got lost along the way, here’s a debriefing: READ FULL STORY »

'NCIS' begins Port-to-Port Killer arc: Are we whimpering already?
And so it begins: Last night, NCIS started its season-ending serial killer arc (watch), and if the creepy talking baby wasn’t unnerving enough at the top of the episode (that was David McCallum voicing it, CBS confirms), how about that ending? SPOILER ALERT: I was thinking that drink would have come from Ray (Enrique Murciano), Ziva’s boyfriend, who would have coincidentally been drowning his sorrows at the same bar and overheard Tony having his back and telling Ziva that Ray had to keep her in the dark about being the CIA liaison to NCIS on the P2P Killer case. (I didn’t think that omission was that big of a deal myself, but I don’t have Ziva’s track record and trust issues).

Image Credit: Greg Gayne/NBC; Justin Lubin/NBC; Brian Bowen Smith/Fox; Mitchell Haaseth/NBC; Bob D'Amico/ABC (2)Last week, PopWatch asked readers to name the TV character they’d date in real life. After tallying more than 2,000 nominations (yes, we read them all), we’re ready to take it to a vote. We’ve put your top picks — 25 men, and 29 women (there was a tie for that last spot) — in two polls below. Vote now through Tuesday at midnight ET. Come back Friday when we’ll reveal the results. Remember: You can’t change anything about the character you’re picking, other than that he or she will no longer have feelings for his or her show love interest. (Second rule: Do not feel guilty.) Note: The order the characters are listed in the polls below is how they ranked during the first round, when you could be indecisive. What will happen when you can only pick one? READ FULL STORY »

Which TV character would you date in real life?
Image Credit: Monty Brinton/CBS; Eric McCandless/ABC; Mitchell Haaseth/NBC; Justin Stephens/NBC; John P. Johnson/HBOSince Valentine’s Day is approaching, we’ve decided it’s time to crown TV’s Most Datable Characters. Here’s how this works: As we did in 2008, we are asking you to name the TV character you’d actually date in real life. The rules remain the same:
1. Hosts or reality TV contestants of any kind are disqualified. The relationship you’re creating is real; your better half must be fictional.
2. You can’t change anything about your partner — other than that he or she will no longer have feelings for the show love interest, obviously.
Here’s what’s different: This year, we’ll tally your nominations — male and female, from current shows only — and, assuming it’s not a landslide, create polls with your top picks and take this to an official vote. The Office‘s Jim Halpert won the men’s title in ’08. Can he repeat? Let’s find out.
To get you thinking, here are a few names being tossed around PopWatch HQ. Remember, if you want them to make the poll round, you have to nominate them as well… READ FULL STORY »
