NCIS: Los Angeles

Used to be ok but now?

I used to enjoy NCIS LA as a silly bit of escapism. Far removed from reality just a mindless bit of fun. Hetty kept me watching Sam walking like the great hulk pretending to be a wise genius. Callen trying to find his identity and is becoming ruder and more arrogant by the minute. Deeks used to be fun but turned into a touchy feely whiny kind of guy. Their baby story is nauseating. Nell in her little girl outfits was ok at the beginning but is a bore now. The less I see of Eric the better. Which Kindergarten did Fatima and Roundtree spring from? They are unwatchable. The General is great fun as is Arkady and Kirkin. The sooner they shut down this show the better. Even as a mindless bit of escapism it has become painful to watch. I am certainly done with it.

Scripts are lame

This show used to be great but as they add in more Kensey and Deeks banter what used to be amusing is now tiring. The story lines are getting more unrealistic and just stupid. They seem just slapped together. Last season i was really fed up with the storyline with Heddy out of the picture and when she reappeared i was hoping for better scripts . Well the show is going downhill fast and i am taking it off my playlist

This show must be headed for cancellation

This season is the worst. Hedy gone, Mosley is terrible. Now the Dekes wedding, and the love interest with the computer geeks. What could get worse...all the silly dialogue. I used to love this show but it has gotten so comical, it is like their trying to turn this into a comedy.

How did this show ever become popular?

I hate USA runs this show every morning. I can't stand it.

If it was "US against terrorists" as the title I could maybe think of it more appropriate.

Naval Criminal Investigative Service. That is what it is supposed to be about. But every episode is about terrorists. Never criminal and everyday crimes. That is where it completely diverts from the original premise.

Oh some episodes are ok, and the actors are tolerable. It had some star power for sure. But it is totally different from the premise of a police agency. I mean they bring an LA cop as liaison, and they use him to fight terrorists at every turn.

That is the job of the FBI and CIA, when they are not chasing down parents complaining about LGBQ agenda shoved down their elementary schools kids throats.

Im tired of the Callen girlfriend thread of NCIS-LA. Get back to doing cases that the team was formed to do.

Season 12 appalling!

Has completely lost the the plot in season 12, not only with the cast changes, but the scripts and the new woke theme running throughout the show. I only have it two stars in memory of the brilliant Linda Hunt who no longer seems to be part of the furniture.

Had high hopes

NCIS: Los Angeles is like the little brother to NCIS. It doesn't seem as serious, in fact the characters act like children compared to the cast of NCIS. Not only that but they come off cartoon-ish, the "Ducky" replacement character on this show reminds me of the short old women from Disney movies, big round glasses included. I had high hopes when they did the cross-over episodes with NCIS, but so far none of their episodes are even navy related. This is also another example of why LL Cool J shouldn't act, he's always tripping over his lines. Overall, I find it hard to sit through an entire episode. Maybe with a different cast, and different writers, and definitely different background music it'd be watchable. Still not as good as the original though.

Congratulations!

After watching Series 10 of this show, I would like to take the opportunity to congratulate the makers of NCIS LA, who like the producers of the parent show NCIS, have created a forum where aspiring writers get the chance to show their writing skills. I cannot think of any other programs that allows pre-teens the chance to air their amateur attempts to a nationwide audience. Congratulations and keep up the good work.

Watched through the years on and off. It was a good escape for a while.

Mainly because I am not the type to catch every show by planning my week around a tv show. This one was interesting but the last few times/ years even it seems they are getting lazy. The writers maybe the most I don't know, it's just lost the beat. It's become the old New Bakery on the way that lost it's way; got rid of the baker and now depends on the staff. Also I lose interest in shows that try to take on the real issues of the day. It feels like they are trying to resolve those topics for us. Take us somewhere else. Blase'. Prosaic. I am Sorry 'bout that. ~w.

THE POINT OF THE SHOW IS LOST ON ME!

I guess they are trying to do an updated MIAMI VICE and a new 24 as all the evil seems to be set in Los Angeles and they push for female empowerment and repeat themselves incredibly with unimaginative writing and what point the show is trying to raise is completely beyond me like most of today's TV.

Deeks ruins the show!

Dude can't act. He's a Mr sensitivity , sissy, whiner. Is this the final season? If not, Deeks needs to be replaced with someone who is believable.

ncis los angeles not so much fun

Don't care for the cast, don't care for the plots, it's nowhere near it's predecessor (NCIS) with regard to taste and glamour; it just seems slapped together with a lot of shoot-em-up and very little content of interest; one exception is the older woman who dresses people and serves tea; she's interesting at least... I'm actually watching the show as I type. People are shooting at each other some more - no one got hit, but then, who cares? Oh, now Abby (from the real NCIS) is making a cameo appearance; would that her fellow cast members would show up also - at least they have some defined personality. Please, 86 this show and give us something hipper.

crap

Linda Hunt? Linda Hunt? Where did this change of casting come from? I wasn't thrilled with the original NCIS spin off stories that introduced this series; but I have become more underwhelmed as this series continue to sputter along. It must be the time slot because the casting is terrible and the writing is embarrassing. Tuesday night at nine must be a dead zone as that is the only reason to explain how this show remains on TV. Without a doubt it is the "Hank" of drama. How can I possibly fill up ten lines writing about this excuse of a spin off. Put it up against a quality show like "accidentally on purpose" (kidding about quality show) and see if it survives.

Dumb

Never seen a cop show that had so many crimes captured on camera. Whenever they need a clue one of their computer nerds finds a security camera. So dumb.

Giving real NCIS a bad name!

The REAL, NCIS is such a good show with perfeclty created characters and actors, but this NCIS: LA its giving the real ncis a bad name...

And the show border lines racism against African mostly Sudanese people and its really biased about Muslims and Muslim community.

The characters are not there LL Cool J speaks zillon langues and the Hacker guy chrases the INTERNET(yes all of it) of hacks into closed circuit CIA databases i mean don't do these.

And other than being racist and technically wrong, in this show agents act like they are from CTU(form 24) most of the time i mean in REAL NCIS, Gibbs yells "get your gear there is a dead marine" and the guys go and solve the murder but in this ncis: la i really cant understand the mission description of the agents and "ncis" .
