Kinda liked the main plot simply because it wasn't a murder mystery this time (at least not a human murder). They used to do cases that weren't murders and that's more or less stopped over the years. BTW the end credits are so small I couldn't read if they had the "no dogs were harmed" disclaimer in the credits. Anybody see it? This show will never make it without Gibbs. There are WWGD? shirts, but there ain't no WWMD?/WWBD?/WWTD? (McGee/Bishop/Torrez) shirts. None of the other characters are strong enough to lead the series.
As much as I like Sean Murry, his character is too weak to pull the lead off. It might be possible to bring in another lead actor, male or female, to fill the shoes of team leader, which could lead to some episodes of friction between McGee and that new lead. However, no matter what kind of "new energy" and "dynamic" at new lead might bring, I think the fan base is too cemented to Gibbs being the main character to accept a new lead.
I would give it a try, but the weakness of McGee/Bishop/Torres is not enough to carry the show alone.Special Agent Dwayne Pride is available. |

I agree. Had Weatherly stayed, I think he could have pulled it off. His character should be leading a team anyway, so it might as well be the team he has been with for so long. But that ain't happening, so...I dunno what they will do next. I still like McGee. And I like how he stood up to Gibbs a time or two in this episode. Not sure he is the lead character type though.
And man, what's the deal? Did the fire all the writers who write somewhat light-hearted episodes? These recent episodes really have been a bit dark, depressing, and sad. And now it looks like Gibbs will be sidelined for awhile. Definitely has not been anywhere near my favorite season of the show to this point.
