    Enemy Combatant

    Enemy Combatant 14.9

    My wife and I. We both have theatre background. And we're not about to launch into a boring six paragraph dissertation on any TV show or movie. We would like to think that our light-hearted, semi-non sequitur reviews based upon the silly MST3K model might be enjoyable for some. WE get a kick out of it ; ).

    8-stars. Everything starts with an 8-star rating.

    Well: Is it hip-hop music or rap?. Either way we don't care but: who would let their daughter (regardless of age) listen to music about hating people, abusing women, drug use; bragging about their possessions and killing the police. And for the writers pandering to this genre? F. U!

    5-stars.

    Connect emotionally with character(s)? Yes. There is bro love. Between Ellie and her bros.

    8-stars.

    Umm. Mister pro changing tires? You are turning the tire iron the wrong way.

    Tow trucks always burn rubber to get to the job.

    Always stand in the middle of the road to flag down the oncoming tow truck. Because, you know, the driver can't see your car.

    How did the brick get broken without the gas pedal being, like, totally destroyed?

    7-stars.

    Why are the brothers left in the squad room without supervision?

    Was the commander a ballet dancer? Look at the position of his feet while he's on the autopsy table. En pointe, anyone?

    Oh, gosh darn it. Yet another serious threat to national security!

    So: the brothers are comfortable with disabling the elevator in a military building.

    Sabotage much?

    6-stars.

    Did he actually say: "The jig is up"? That's, like, 1950's jargon.

    Umm: depending on the make, model and year of the vehicle the "navigation system" Abby has would consist of more than rusty pipes and hose clamps.

    6-stars.

    NCIS going woke

    My fiance and I are both former Military. Neither of us watched NCIS when it originally aired, but started streaming it a couple of years ago. We have enjoyed most of the episodes right up to this point. We've noticed small rumblings of NCIS "going woke" in a few episodes, but this episode jumps into the deep end of the woke pool with both feet. I'm unsure whether future episodes can save this once entertaining crime drama from drowning. We are willing to give it a few more episodes to see if it can be saved. I doubt it, though.

    Dissapinting

    I really dislike the 'who is Bishop' s boyfriend? ' subplot. It ruins what would otherwise be a pretty good episode in my opinion. In contrast, I do like the alternative approach to a Gitmo storyline. It is not enough to save the episode though.

    Whaaaat?

    How did Bishop's brothers get into the building? Apart from the security aspects they are REALLY irritating. Gibbs' statement that he had authorised the visit does not convince us any more than him - that was just something the script told him to say. Can we please see Bishop's brothers never again?

    What ever happened to NCIS ?

    This series has been going downhill ever since Ziva "left". Kate Todd (2 seasons) and Ziva David (about 8) both made NCIS seem to be plausible. Bishop probably appeals to video game and comic book enthusiasts who revel in her "zany" quirks. Tony Di Nozzo was also a realistic part of this program who helped make NCIS one of my favorites. Today the stories just have lost their realism. It's a shame but after 13 years the original creativity has been sacrificed to a certain audience's desire to see humor in crime stories. Crime usually includes death which is always tragic. Ducky's droll humor was real. The 3 brothers "inside" NCIS interrogating potential suitors is ridiculous. Security limitations would not allow it. Of course in fantasy land anything is possible.

      Originally intended to air as Episode 9, but for reasons unknown, was swapped.
    • Goofs
      McGee says he's worked with Bishop "just over four years," but Emily Wickersham (Bishop) joined the show in November 2013, so it's actually been exactly three years.

      Robbie Bishop: [about Torres] You do realize he could have taken all three of us down one-handed, right?

      George Bishop: Without a doubt.

      John Bishop: The things we do for our sister.
