Michael Weatherly Tweeted the above photo of him in a dumpster and I am wondering if NCIS is throwing him out? Nah it was probably for a scene in an upcoming episode of TV’s #1 show NCIS.
Seriously why would they get rid of him? I mean who doesn’t love DiNozzo. I am sure I am not the only person who wants to give him a light tap on the back of his head just for the heck of it.
Tonight at 8p NCIS is back for its 10th season on CBS and it picks up shortly after their offices were blown up. We get to see who made it out of the building alive and who didn’t. Ziva and DiNozzo are still stuck in the elevator, and with all the debris around them will anyone even know they are in there. Then there was Ducky, who wasn’t even in the building at the time, and last time we saw him he suffered what looked like a heart attack on the beach outside Jimmy’s wedding. Was season 9 his last or is he back for 10th one?
Once we get all of those answers we skip ahead a few weeks and we learn that Gibbs has a good lead to where Dearing is. Now the NCIS team will do everything they can to stop him, but is he smart enough to elude them once again? All I will say is there is another explosion and not everything is at seems.
I will also tell you one more thing Gibbs will do something that you never expect him to do and it will be interesting to see how that changes things for the #1 show on TV. I guess we will just have to tune in to find out every Tuesday.
NCIS is airing its season finale tonight on CBS at 8p and last week executive producer Gary Glassberg talked about the #1 scripted show on TV.
NCIS celebrated it’s 200th episode a rarity in primetime and it did while being the most watched show on TV which is unheard of. So how does a show that has been on the air for nine years do that? Well here is what Glasberg said on that, “I think the real reason that this show is the success that is, is that cast. It’s a phenomenal group of actors and they know how to do this television show better than anybody. I know I can hand them material and we as a group will figure out how to make it work best. To me that is why it works, really.” It’s definitely working according to the numbers.
And there is someone/thign else that the show works with it and that is the N part of NCIS. Glasberg told us, “We are constantly in touch with the Department of Defense, our Navy friends and our friends at the Marine Corps. We are trying to tell a series as close to real time as we can.” He let us on some fast editing they had to when something major broke in the military world with this story, “In the instance of Osama Bin Laden, when that situation was handled, we were actually successful with the Most Wanted Board that is there on the wall. We actually put a line through that, but the episode was long filmed so we had to digitally go back in and put that line in. We did it 24 hours before it aired.”
But it isn’t only real world events that influence the show, as he told us “The Secretary of the Navy and I talk relatively often and he actually periodically comes up with things they would like us to talk about.” When asked for an example he added, “It can be anything from, like two years ago it was all about the Green Initiative. They were switching over to Biofuels and things like that, so we touched on that in an episode. I try to be as truthful to that as I can periodically through the year. It means a lot to them. It grounds the show.” He also made sure to mention that this show means a lot to the Navy, so they do what they can to make them happy.
And what makes the fans happy is the great people they get to guest star on the show. Glasberg said that the Ryan aka Jamie Lee Curtis’ storyline will be addressed tonight and we will know where her future stands with the show. Now I had to know about a celebrity family that two of the members were on the show this year and I wondered if more of them will appear. Glasberg said that Mackenzie Astin could not come back, his other brother Sean could and he would love to have their mom Patty Duke on NCIS. We will have to tune into to season ten to see if that is possible. But before we get to that tune in for the season nine finale tonight.
The N in NCIS stands for Nine because the show was picked up for a ninth season today. CBS announced today the show that has been reaching series high’s in the ratings during its 8th season will be back to reach new highs. The show that stars Mark Harmon is the #1 scripted show on television, so the show coming back was a no brainer, but it is still good news that it is official!
Tonight at 8p on CBS, Bob Newhart gives an unforgettable performance on NCIS. The TV legend plays the man who was the medical examiner before Ducky and he comes back to visit his old haunt. He goes along on their case and observes how things have changed since he has been there. It is a great look advancements of NCIS through the years. And make sure to watch the episode all the way through for a powerful ending that only Bob Newhart can deliver. Seriously have your tissues ready cause you are going to need them.
Through my tears, I smell another Emmy for him!!!
