NCIS 10x01 Reaction Post
The premiere was very lackluster. There was no resolving of the Tony/Ziva drama that was a big part of the last season and everyone thought would come to a head when they were stuck in the elevator. There whole story was just blah.
I honestly though there would be more drama. I knew Ducky was going to be okay cause David was already signed for the season, Cote and Sean were not and I assumed there would be more angst over the condition of McGee.
My favorite parts of the episode though were Ducky and Palmer. Their scenes made up for everything. And I did like Dearing as a character. They gave Dearing a reason for his actions as horrible as they were. (It was also nice to see Toby as a villain, since I am a West Wing fan). Gibbs ending scenes also made up for the lack of anything in the episode. The parallels between Gibbs and Dearing were very poignant and also very indicative to what could have happened if Gibbs had no morals. Plus he built himself a family again, Dearing didn't.
And wow I loved Tony asking Gibbs about Ryan. I wish we could see more of that Tony (and that father/son relationship) thats been lacking the last few years.
I still have to watch NCIS:LA-a little apprehensive about that too.
