    Best show ever

    NCIS in my opinion is the best show on TV. The characters are so light and funny. There are no heroes there what i think it is so good. They are always giving you the feeling that they can be your neighbor. Yesterday was funny, sentimental and brought us the Sarcoidosis disease which is a terrible condition and people will know more about it. Abby's new love interesting is handsome and a very good choice and when Dinozzo says that "it is the president of USA" his face was priceless. I had a very good night yesterday and i am sure a lot of people had too because 18.65 million people watched the show last night. NCIS won the night in total viewers again...
