The acting was terrible. The writing/story was disjointed and contrived. The main character, played by Vanessa Lachey, the team leader, was overdone, not believable, a terrible mother, and tried way too hard to be tough. The original NCIS show has humorous elements to lighten the mood. This show didn’t. The lesbian kiss/relationship was surprising, disgusting and added nothing to the story line. The best thing was the Hawaii scenery. Will not watch again.
