NCIS Season 11 **US schedule - spoilers**

No great surprise here, but there will be a season 11.

Thta's great news, NCIS is probably the only show that after 10 seasons is still as interesting as in season 1

It's crazy...and there's going to be another spin off.

Ugh! No, the first one sucks already!

I don't care for the LA one, either.

Looks like it's confirmed that Cote de Pablo is leaving the show.

I haven't really watched the newer episodes that much. Like I saw the Eli/Jackie thing from earlier this year but other than that I'm not into it anymore.

I love Ziva though. Or the old her, the Mossad killer who shot her brother and saw her sister die. You know, angsty. And the banter with Tony (they would've been so intense had they actually slept together 7 or 8 years ago).

I've seen people use the hastag #RIPTiva, which is odd.

I got tired of Ziva's assassin background being used as an excuse for almost everything from a dramatic or creative point of view (I'm exaggerating a bit). I hope we don't that see in her replacement. They'll hardly go for a probie, it'll be interesting to see what they do.

Interesting reading some of the reaction online...people not looking forward to season 11 because Tiva is likely over? Pfft.

I just heard... I am ecstatic, because now the Tiva thingy will be over And I never really liked Ziva that much, I preffered Kate. I am curious who is going to join the team. Hopefully there won't be any romance dramas anymore

I loved Kate.

I find the Tiva fan reaction kinda funny. Get over it, as you can see...I'm tolerant. I doubt they'll kill her off.

I'm sure the new character will have an interesting back story.

Oh, and the other spin off NCIS: Red didn't get picked up.

I was laughing today because I there's a whole action online about getting Cote back and it's Cote who resigned... LOL

Read something today about them offering her money, then more money...but who knows if it was really about that.

Ziva won't die, apparently.

Season 11 promo.

Back tonight.

Solid enough opener for season 11. Didn't care for SECNAV, really. Don't miss Ziva too much. Good fun between Gibbs and Fornell as usual.

11.02 As an episode, I liked it more than the season opener. They didn't oversell the Tony/Ziva scenes (she seemed rather contemplative) and her departure was pretty straightforward. It'll be interesting to see the dynamic from next week. Gibbs didn't know Captain Kirk? Tut tut.

Lightweight episode this week.

We're going to meet Bishop soon.

I see some people have been tweeting Dennis Smith (director) to bring back Ziva. Um, get over it already.

Ralph Waite who played Jackson Gibbs has passed away at 85.   

That was sad I loved the season finale and the tribute to Jack.

Me too. I'm still watching.
