I love all of the NCIS shows. Regardless of my comments here, I will continue to call NCIS shows my favorites. That being said, I've been very disappointed in the writing of the recent shows. Nell and Eric have zero chemistry and that storyline doesn't add to the series at all. The writers have turned Eric into a fool. Why? How does that enhance the storylines? The "gouging of the eyeballs" episode was ridiculous. The side story during the wedding episode was also ridiculous. Come on, NCIS LA writers. We know you can do better than that.
