With liberal doses of humor it's a show that focuses on the sometimes complex and always amusing dynamics of a team forced to work together in high-stress situations. NCIS Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) a former Marine gunnery sergeant whose skills as an investigator are unmatched formerly led this troupe of colorful personalities. Gibbs a man of few words only needs a look to explain it all. The team includes NCIS Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) an ex-homicide detective who may come off as the world's oldest frat boy but whose instincts in the field are unparalleled; forensic specialist Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette) a talented scientist whose dark wit matches her Goth style and eclectic tastes NCIS Special Agent Timothy McGee (Sean Murray) an MIT graduate whose brilliance with computers far overshadows his insecurities in the field and Ziva David (Cote de Pablo) a former Moussad agent who shares a bond with Gibbs over the death of his arch nemesis Ari the terrorist who killed former NCIS Special Agent Kate Todd. Assisting the team is medical examiner Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard (David McCallum) who knows it all because he's seen it all and he's not afraid to let you know. Rounding out the team is NCIS director Jennifer Shepard (Lauren Holly) who has a romantic history with Gibbs. From murder and espionage to terrorism and stolen submarines these special agents travel the globe to investigate all crimes with Navy or Marine Corps ties.System Requirements:Running Time: 835 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 097361375540 Manufacturer No: 137554 Reader Reviews ...Is Season Five *REALLY* worth nearly $40.00 --- more than any of the previously released boxed sets of NCIS? Yes, it's a great programme that provides for an hour of exciting thrills each week, but we must remember the 3 month writer's strike during this past season. While the other boxed sets contain an average of 22 to 24 episodes per season, this one contains only fourteen. I love the show and already have Seasons 1-4 in my collection of DVDs, so of course I will be adding this one, too, but am I wrong in thinking that we, as consumers, shouldn't have to pay as much for Season Five when we clearly aren't getting as much "bang for our buck"? (IMHO, the price should be dropped by about $10.00) NCIS The TV PROGRAMME: 5 Stars The Price of the Boxed Set of DVDs: 3 Stars
