The first being that Pauley has gone back to the low, husky sounding voice from the first couple of seasons, and not the high pitched "GIBBS! GIBBS!GIBBS!GIBBS!GIBBS!" The other is that thing she did with Tony and Kate, or maybe it was Tony and Ziva? Or McGee and Ziva? Anyway, she discovered something, saw them at the elevator, and took their hands, turned around so their arms were "crossed" over her.

Ohmo February 28, 2018 Share February 28, 2018 (edited) My opinion on the Mark-Pauley situation has changed. I now think there is some there there because I agree with the EW piece. This does seem to have the feel of what happened on The Good Wife between Archie and Julianna, and I also agree that it's become very noticeable. Gibbs used to go down to Abby's lab often and bring her Caf-Pow. Now he's rarely down there. Another character always goes, and I'm hard-pressed to find a recent instance where Gibbs even talks to Abby on the phone or via the plasma (like in Autopsy). Another red flag for me is that we haven't gotten a throwaway line about it, such as "Gibbs never comes down to see me anymore." This tells me that it's likely not a storyline decision. TPTB aren't mentioning it because they don't want us to notice it. At this point, there's more to support that there may be an issue between Mark and Pauley than there is that refutes it. If it is so, I was saddened when it happened on The Good Wife, and I will be saddened ifi it happens again here.

But I'm forever Team Mark because I don't think he would do anything that would endanger anyone on the crew or cast. Like I said before, if that had been the case, in this day and age with smart phones and what not, it would have gone viral.

Goldmoon March 20, 2018 Share March 20, 2018 If it is true that there is bad blood between the actors, they and the creators need to man up and think of the welfare of the show first. J. Michael Straczynski had an issue with Claudia Christian and the last season of Babylon 5. He didn't suck it up and think of the welfare of the show (no, I don't really know to whom to assign blame) and the last season sucked without Ivanova. The issue then should have been the show instead of whatever pride issues the two were dealing with and the same goes here. I haven't watched NCIS in years, but I will be watching the last two of this season since they are losing two of the best characters. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13482-ncis-in-the-media/page/7/#findComment-4161522

I have done a lot of dog-sitting (including German Sheperds and other big breeds) but I completely understand people not feeling safe around certain breeds. And since the dog has already injured someone I can also understand Perrette. Yeah, it was rough play and not the dog's fault but she's also not asking for the dog to be put down. Not quite sure why the dog has to be on-set for her scenes if she's not feeling comfortable around it. Surely some sort of compromise could have been found among co-workers.

betsyboo April 6, 2018 Share April 6, 2018 Good gravy - AGAIN with the "advanced age." we should all look so good at such an advanced age. March 21, 2018 ‘NCIS’ Season 15: Mark Harmon And Team To Bid Goodbye To Pauley Perrette Soon, Abby Sciuto Trapped In A Morgue Nica Virtudazo It remains unclear if fans should expect another installment after NCIS Season 15. CBS has not yet released any official statement about the future of the popular American police military procedural television series. Aside from Mark Harmon’s advanced age and allegedly complicated health, cancelation rumors continue to hound the show because of Pauley Perrette’s imminent departure. Devoted viewers of the series were shocked after Pauley Perrette announced her plans to leave after NCIS Season 15, CBS News reported. In October of 2016, the television star shared the news via Twitter. The 48-year-old American actress also clarified that there was no drama involved in her decision. She even denied the rumors stating that she has bad blood with the network and the management: Quote “There has been all kinds of false stories as to why (NO I DON’T HAVE A SKIN CARE LINE AND NO MY NETWORK AND SHOW ARE NOT MAD AT ME!) It was a decision made last year. I hope everyone will love and enjoy EVERYTHING ABBY not only for the rest of this season but for everything she has given all of us for 16 years. All the love, all the laughter, all the inspiration…I love her as much as you do.” In response to Pauley Perrette’s shocking revelation, CBS also released an official statement. The network emphasized how Pauley Perrette has become a valuable cast member of the series in the past 16 years. The network added that all the hard work of the NCIS actress would be treasured forever. “While it’s never easy saying goodbye to a beloved actress and character, we respect her decision to leave at the end of the season. We are grateful to Pauley for all her contributions to the series and making Abby one of the most unique characters on television.” NCIS Season 15 executive producers Frank Cardea and George Schenck also released a statement regarding Pauley Perrette’s decision to leave the series, Variety shared. The pair revealed that they are already planning for a “special sendoff” for her character, Abby Sciuto. Frank and George also expressed their gratefulness to the civil rights advocate for portraying Abby, who inspired millions of people around the globe for more than one and a half decades. “From day one, she has brought incredible passion and specificity to the role. Abby is a character that inspires millions of fans around the world, and all of us at ‘NCIS’ are appreciative of Pauley for portraying her.” Now that there are only a few episodes left before NCIS Season 15 finally comes to an end, it also means that Mark Harmon and the rest of the cast and crew would have a few days left to spend with Pauley Perrette. However, avid followers of the show remain clueless as to how Abby Sciuto will make her exit. CarterMatt suggested that Pauley’s character should not be killed or fired because the series is all about “optimism and heroism.” The news outlet added that Abby Sciuto’s good relationship with her bosses, associates, and friends should be highlighted before NCIS Season 15 ends. Most fans know that Pauley Perrette’s character is very friendly and understanding, which is why it is never hard for her to be loved by many. If possible, the entertainment portal also suggested that they should make Abby a hero. Meanwhile, CBS has dropped the teaser for the NCIS Season 15 Episode 18. In the promo, Abby Sciuto is seen lying down inside a morgue. While the character looked dead, CarterMatt shared that she might be doing an undercover mission.

At this point, I don't give any blue dilly FUCKS what or how her send off/last episode will be. At least on The Good Wife, Kalinda and Alicia were on the outs, more or less, which could explain, to an extent why they didn't share scenes, even THOUGH they had reconciled the previous season. And this was all Margulies' doing. Gibbs and Abby didn't have a falling out. And in our current age of social media? Something more should have come out.

MissLucas April 8, 2018 Share April 8, 2018 Yes, acting professionally looks different to me too. At least this time around nobody makes any big promises that we will see Gibbs and Abby together in her last episode (AFAIK). When the Good Wife show-runners did that and then it became painfully clear that we were served a split-screen scenario people's reactions weren't too kind. Stuff like that can taint a show's legacy.

I agree with you that the personal details aren't my business, but if your job is an actor, you suddenly can't do your job because you and a castmate are at odds, and that ends up marring the backstory of a series, that IS my business as a fan. I think you are confusing you getting what you want with people acting professionally. The people on the show have figured out how to write the series to their satisfaction without them having to be in the same room. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13482-ncis-in-the-media/page/7/#findComment-4218765

Damn. Then what's the reason for Mark Harmon having such BAD HAIR all season? I hope he cuts it so it looks like it did during the first 13 seasons! Why yes, I can be shallow.

If they were acting professionally, then we’d see both Gibbs and Abby interact together in scenes like they have in seasons past. I stated this as an example of actors who hated each other, but still sucked it up and did their jobs when the offscreen shenanigans were happening on The Good Wife. I learned years later they didn’t get along in real life-William Frawley and Vivian Vance; and to a lesser extent Vivian Vance and Lucille Ball, though the latter did become friends after I Love Lucy ended. Since supposedly whatever is happening on the set is unacceptable to Perrette, I can only assume this is her way of completing her contract and still protesting-by refusing to share scenes with Mark Harmon. Since “apparently,” he is the one refusing to leave his pit bull behind. CBS and the show runners denied anything was happening on the other show and looked like fools when it came out. So I guess they think the long time viewers of this show are stupid????? It would be different if Gibbs and Abby were acquaintances or barely interacted. But they’re not. And the show, for me, has suffered because of the way they’ve handled it. You forgot Castle - there was a lot of acting there from what I understand. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13482-ncis-in-the-media/page/7/#findComment-4234776

GHScorpiosRule May 1, 2018 Share May 1, 2018 Why Perrette is leaving the show. A bunch of same old same old, nothing new, and no mention of the "reported" rumors, but this had me rolling my eyes: As for why she wanted to leave, she said she had a feeling. "I believe in God and the universe so firmly, and i t just suddenly became blindingly apparent that now was the time," she said. "After a lot of thought, I decided to announce it myself on Twitter because I didn't want it to be turned into anything "shocking." Abby leaving is more than a cheap TV ploy." I mean, did she say in order for her to talk about her departure in vague terms, no questions about why she and Mark didn't share a single scene this season were allowed? A reporter worth his or her salt, would have asked about such a glaring issue. And the rumors about his pit bull attacking, biting, whatever. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13482-ncis-in-the-media/page/7/#findComment-4283675

enoughcats May 8, 2018 Share May 8, 2018 Quote “Abby is more than a TV character to millions of people around the world, and especially to young women. She’s a role model. They dress like her, walk like her, talk like her" and some have pursued math and science careers because of her From Abby's fate linked above. Dress like, walk like, talk like......piffle, not something to be particularly proud of. The last part, though is important and by not maturing Abby on the series, that part pretty much (IMO) got set aside. Early years Abby was a brilliant character, savy and smart. And it IS interesting that we thank Bellisario for her creation. (and for adding his stepson as McGee). Quote Abby has stood out as a TV character from the beginning, as she was designed by NCIS creator Donald Bellisario to defy convention. When Bellisario was forced out by Mark Harmon, was that when the character Abby started to be dumbed down? I will always love her character the way it was first written. Her resolution of her being kidnapped by her other stalker remains one of my favorite female on TV moments of all time. That Abby, I shall miss. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13482-ncis-in-the-media/page/7/#findComment-4303591

At this point, I'd just assume we get it over with....whatever "it" turns out to be. We can't get back what I want anyway---the months and months of wasted time and missing scenes that could have been used throughout the season to build up a send-off for Abby...moments with Gibbs, moments with McGee, a few with Ducky, and heck maybe even a few phone calls (one-sided) where Abby could have been talking to Tony. Instead, we got none of that...just this awkward parade of everyone BUT Gibbs now coming to see Abby in the lab. As sad as tonight might be, I think what's even sadder is how we ended up here and that a very popular dynamic is now non-existent. 1 12 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/13482-ncis-in-the-media/page/7/#findComment-4304319
