Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) is an American criminal investigation drama. Since its launch in late 2003 NCIS has risen to become one of the most watched shows on
CBS and has already aired for 7 full seasons. Many critics were skeptical of this show at first but this show has definitely earned its place on television. I have always been a fan of crime dramas; there is just something about them that attracts me, but over the years I have been turned off by many that are over the top, unrealistic, and just plain dumb. So, when I first heard about NCIS I was very skeptical, I didn't really think this show was going to be any good. But, after watching the first episode my opinion totally changed; NCIS is 100% awesome!
The show is about a team of criminal investigators who investigate crimes related to the military. This gives a new twist the show because the characters get to travel all over the world and solve crimes that have been committed by military personal, or crimes that have been committed against active military personal.
The show features a wide range of characters who each add something special to the NCIS team; the major characters are Agent Gibbs who is the leader of a division of NCIS, Tony who works right alongside Gibbs and is most likely to be found in bed with a woman he just met, Abby who is the forensic specialist, Ducky – medical examiner, and McGee – junior field agent. There are a few other characters but I would run out of space if I named them all. These characters always seem to get on each other's last nerve and it is a wonder anything gets done, but nonetheless they all have a love for what they do and for each other.
NCIS give the perfect balance between action, suspense, and romance. This is by far one of my favorite television shows. The action is not over the top, but it is still more than enough to keep you on the edge of your seat. Most of the times I tell people to check out a show if they have time; but you should make time to see this. Stop watching junk TV and start watching shows like NCIS, life is too short to watch junk. So what are you waiting for? Head over to
CBS and check out this show today!
