Thanks to Twitter Karen for
suggesting this one. It’s a little bit like another bottle episode, and it’s
just occurred to me that Tony and Ziva are always getting stuck together in confined
spaces. The plane in Jet Lag, the shipping container in Boxed In, the elevator
in Till Death Do Us Part, the closet in Cloak (okay, that was only for five
seconds, but it was totally hot). If this were jelenamichelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228996372851350874noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587580801373116404.post-8471872745040972802012-06-16T21:59:00.000+10:002012-06-16T22:01:12.772+10:00Retrospective: 5.06 Chimera
What’s that
saying about best intentions? Something something something and they’re worth
two in the bush? Or they rush in where angels fear to tread, or they’re the
lowest form of wit…I don’t know. But there’s some saying about best intentions
and that they’re always useless because something always gets in the way.
The thing
that got in my way after just one retrospective recap was my jelenamichelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228996372851350874noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587580801373116404.post-65485053363668872662012-05-19T00:05:00.001+10:002012-06-16T21:59:28.510+10:00Retrospective: 3.12 Boxed In
Let’s kick off our NCIS hiatus retrospective with the season
three bottle episode Boxed In. I’ve
picked it because I was reminded of it in the dying minutes of season nine when
Tony and Ziva ended up trapped (one assumes) an in elevator after an explosion.
Trapped, I say! Their spaces are getting smaller and smaller. Next time I
expect they’ll pay homage to Out of Sight and have them stuck in jelenamichelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228996372851350874noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587580801373116404.post-29877167635143634352012-05-18T19:47:00.001+10:002012-05-18T19:47:20.821+10:00NCIS on hiatus, but I won't be<!--[if gte mso 9]>

Here we are again, my friends. We’ve arrived in TV purgatory
for another year. That place between the excitement, stress and joy (or fury,
depending on your viewpoint) of a season finale, and the excitement, stress and
relief (or fury again, some more) of a season premiere. It’s a difficult time
for a fan.

Can I say upfront that this time last year I was so ready to dump this show. I resolved to give season 9 four episodes to convince me to stay. It did, and I can honestly say that I've been surprised and relieved by this season. Just my opinion, but this one has been streets ahead of the last three. Tip o' the hat to Gary Glasberg. You've done a bang up job.

First thing's first: it's a Dorneget episode! Yay for Dorney!
He's having an implant tooth pulled at the dentist because he got some popcorn stuck in there. But what should be a routine visit ends in DRAMA when the dentist finds a microchip thing implanted in the tooth. EWWWWWWW! Someone's been bugging him through his teeth! That's unbelievably gross.

Then I fast forwarded through it this morning and realised I actually *did* have some snark and/or insightful commentary (mostly the former) in me, so I may as well do this one while I'm waiting for the new ep to load.
Also I have seen the number of page views this thing got and I'm quite surprised to know jelenamichelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228996372851350874noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8587580801373116404.post-53284532141094425782012-04-19T00:15:00.001+10:002012-06-16T22:00:21.842+10:009.21 RekindledOkay, then. Who wants to take a guess at how long I'll keep this going? Until the end of the season? I think even that is giving more credit than I deserve.
Let's embark on a visual journey of Rekindled's delights. And oh, there are many. Many of them centred on Ziva's face.
But first: Tony's wearing what he calls Practical Playboy boots. Is that American slang? Here in Australia we call those jelenamichelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15228996372851350874noreply@blogger.com1
