I usually give episodes like this a lot of slack since I really like the main players, but I  just couldn't be that gracious tonight.  Not all eps can hit home runs, but this was painful.

I actually enjoyed this one a lot.  Didn't requiring a lot of thinking, but right now, that's what I'm looking for.  My only quibble was the thing between McGee and Palmer about the soccer call.  Goal-line technology would've solved that issue, but VAR sucks.  It doesn't help with bad calls at all because it still has to be interpreted by humans.

I'm still not sure how you can turn a project to develop an atomic ICBM into a hoover but props for being quirky 😁I actually think it would a cool idea for a mini series going into detail how to pull that off with enough crazy characters to make it work.

The soccer thing was weird, but I enjoyed yet another appearance of the elevator that just won't get a break (by brake abuse).

I thought this was one of the more weaker episodes of NCIS.  I had to rewind more than a few times just to understand what the hell was going on.

I'm glad Jimmy and Jess aren't no longer a couple.  Jimmy is too goofy and silly for her.

Kasie is getting on my nerves.  I wonder if the writers have maybe a "fire in the basement" episode?  👍😄

I like Parker but it does seem like the episodes are more comical than when Gibbs was at the helm.

A few more silly episodes along with too much Kasie and this series might be on the bubble for me.

Oh the mothership seems to indeed be tanking.  LOL, nuclear vacuum cleaner. 

But for me the only good character left is Kasie.  If Jimmy goes back to being goofy that would actually be a plus at this point.

But McGee has way outlived his better days.  Jess is a total bore.  Doughnut Delivery Guy Boss is so silly.  Torres is just spinning his wheels.

Meanwhile Agent Randy had a breakout episode on Origins.  That show is actually interesting.

Which to me is a good thing.  I came to hate Gibbs.  I appreciated the humor which he actually had in the early seasons and hated that it mostly got lost in all the Ziva drama.

I'd rather have my eyes put out than sit through Gibbs' story again.  I've seen more than enough of it in flashbacks.  Although I might tune in if we got young Duckie.

The humor when Gibbs was on the show wasn't silly like it is now.  There was a bit more drama, which I like.

To each, their own.  I'm appreciating more silliness and less angst but that's not everyone's cup of tea.  Although I will confess to finding Kasie to be way too much most of the time.
