Love this show! The humour is very similar to M*A*S*H - in fact some of the phrases used are the same, which isn't surprising when you consider that they have at least one writer in common.

Found it funny in places, but it feels like they are trying too hard to be funny.

This was part of my Friday night line-up - Jack (Stargate), Jarod (The Pretender) & Jim (The Sentinel). Used to love this show when it was on - then it just disappeared here in NZ. I would however suggest not watching it when you've just finished watching Farscape - gets a little confusing around season 8.

Am only one episode in, but I enjoyed it. It's good to see NCIS go back to it's roots (I never took to NCIS:LA).

Still undecided on this. Jamie is all wrong to start with, and the storyline seems to be moving slower than the books. I think that in the future when a book series I read is turned into a movie or TV series I will just give it a miss.

Update for 3rd season: Young Ian Murray is also cast wrong as, knowing where his character is headed, I can't see how this actor is going to pass for the future Ian Murray. Brianna is also cast wrong - she is meant to be tall and imposing yet the actress comes across as meek. The mental picture built up from descriptions in the book is nothing like what the casting is for a lot of the characters which is disappointing given the writer is involved in the show.

Couldn't even get through the first 30mins.

The only part of the first episode that managed to catch my attention is when they are connecting the laptop to the aircraft. Other than that it was sooooo boring. Another one where I wish I could get that hour back. Even David James Elliotts appearance couldn't save it.

This show went strong for most of it's run - except for the last season (if what we saw could even be considered a season). It seemed to rush everything and get silly at times, along with becoming an advertisement for Toyota Prius.

Reasonably good show

It's an OK show but I'm struggling to see what all the fuss is about. Highlights were the episodes with Alan Alda in them, but I cant remember much of the rest of it and I also can't believe they blew up Alan Alda's character.
