Equal parts JAG and C.S.I., NCIS does a formidable job of blending relevant military headlines with quirky characters who are tenaciously determined to solve a crime--even if it means having to sleep in the morgue to get a few minutes of shut eye. Created by Donald P. Bellisario (JAG, Quantum Leap), NCIS actually began as a two-part episode of JAG in 2003. Later that year, the drama made its full-season debut on CBS. On this six-disc set, which includes all 23 non-JAG episodes plus optional commentary by Bellisario on the first episode, viewers are introduced to an elite squad of special agents, led by Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon). Gibbs is a hard-nosed investigator who doesn't say much. But when he does, an insult usually comes out of his mouth. He's brilliant when it comes to ferreting out the truth, but he's not savvy enough to figure out how to block his ex-wife's nagging phone calls. Instead, he makes do by destroying his cell phone. Gibbs' team is fleshed out by an eclectic and somewhat eccentric set of colleagues, including medical examiner Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard (David McCallum from The Man from U.N.C.L.E.), wannabe playboy and former homicide detective Anthony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly), forensics expert and resident Goth chick Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette), and former Secret Service agent Caitlin Todd (Sasha Alexander).

The murder of a peripheral NCIS agent halfway through the season is a taste of what's to come in future seasons when core characters leave the show (voluntarily or not). But in its first year, the show sets up a strong premise that (while not wholly original) is well executed. One of the more stickling aspects of the show is its reluctance to allow Tony to show signs of maturity. At times, he behaves more like a rambunctious puppy than an ace investigator. --Jae-Ha Kim

Product Description>
An elite team of agents investigates crime within the Navy community outside the military chain of command.


Synopsis

Produced by Donald Bellisario (JAG), NCIS follows the workings of investigators at the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. Led by the wise Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon), a crack investigator with no qualms about bending the rules to find his answers, the team takes on cases involving terrorism, murder, espionage, and international arms smuggling. Gibbs is aided by homicide detective Anthony Dinozzo (Michael Weatherly), forensic scientist Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette), medical examiner Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard (David McCallum), and computer expert Timothy McGee (Sean Murray). This collection presents the series' debut season in its entirety.

5.0 out of 5 stars what a find, 16 Jun 2009
By Susan Belcher "Su B" (St Helens, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
I hadn't seen this series on TV as channel 5 as it is shown on a Friday night and clashes with St Helens RLFC home games and Sky's coverage of Rugby League. It was my sister who put me on to it, and I have to say it's great.

Had I known that it was a JAG spin off I probably wouldn't have bothered with it. I've tried JAG on a number of occasions since it started and haven't been able to build an attachment. But this series...

Oh how I remember Mark Harman from 240 Robert when I was a kid. He was droolable and he has only improved with age. As for Michael Weatherley ("Eyes Only" from Dark Angel) wow - the only thing I don't like is the female lead, Kate (Sasha Alexander). Her attitude to the Tony DiNozzo character (played by Michael Weatherly) sucks, especially considering she's new to the job.

We watched episode one to the end of series one in only 3 days.

Cool forensics, pathologist Ducky played by David McCallum (Man from Uncle) and Abby (the forensic scientist goth) played by Pauley Perrette.

There is also the introduction of tech and newbee Timothy McGee, played by Sean Murray who is the (ex)stepson of NCIS creator Donald P Bellisario. As well as the introduction of the "Gibbs" a particular head slap which has a cult following of its own.

An outstanding series - I WILL be purchasing series 2, 3, 4 and 5.

On the negative side - as usual we in the UK are region 2, 2 for 2nd class citizens - no extras

5.0 out of 5 stars W00t!, 31 Oct 2008
By GothBabe07 (England) - See all my reviews
A friend of mine bought me this box set when I was worried about getting a job with my somewhat unconventional dress sense. He told me to 'keep an eye out for Abby'. I soon found out he was talking about Abby Sciuto, the Goth forensic scientist.
Now, don't get me wrong, I am addicted to NCIS for reasons other than Abby (namely - the interaction between the characters is fantastically scripted, the plots are genius, and each and every one of the characters have very unique points that set them apart from the other identikit crime show teams. NCIS is very much a character-driven series, and each character is utterly believeable) but Abby rocks. Seriously.
If you like crime shows with tension, drama, humour and fantastic characters, NCIS is for you. XD

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping Show!, 29 May 2009
By Ms. Jessica Bruerton (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fantastic box set, all 23 gripping episodes. Unfortunately no bonus features.

The series follows Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon), a former marine, and his team (Michael Weatherly, Sasha Alexander). The Major-Case team, paired up with a Gothic Forensic Scientist (Pauley Perrette) and an ME who tells stories to his 'patients' (David McCallum) they investigate any crime with a link to the US Navy or Marine Corps, including murder, espionage and terrorism.

Any NCIS fans get this in your basket! If you love dramas this is a good one to get hooked to.
