Product Description:
A team of special agents operating outside the military chain of command must investigate any crime with pieces of evidence connected to Navy and Marine Corps personnel regardless of rank or position. Character driven stories with surprising twists play a large role in the second season of NCIS (Naval Criminal Investigative Service). The NCIS team of investigators is led by Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) an experienced investigator with sometimes unorthodox but always effective methods. Working under Gibbs are Special Agent Anthony Dinozzo (Michael Weatherly); Special Agent Caitlin Todd (Sasha Alexander); Forensic Specialist Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette); and NCIS's medical examiner Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard (David McCallum). Additionally joining the staff this season will be Special Agent Timothy McGee (Sean Murray) whose communication and computer skills outweigh his naivete. Whether investigating murder or espionage the NCIS goes global in their quest to solve all crimes with Navy or Marine Corps ties.System Requirements:Runtime: 1009 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS UPC: 097360453645 Manufacturer No: 045364

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

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - NCIS Season 1- wrong language in episodes
I love NCIS and am buying each Season one at a time. I orderd Season 1 and on disc 5 and 6 most of the episodes were in Spanish. Amazon was great with the customer service and was sincerely sorry for the mishap. They exchanged it at not cost to me. I received the 2nd set of Season 1 and the same thing - discs 5 and 6 had most of the episodes in Spanish. This time I opted for the refund and returned the set at their expense.
I have to say though, that Amazon has great customer service and make ... Read More

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - NCIS keeps it exciting
Just recently got into NCIS and this is only the 2nd season i've watched completely. But Gibbs and company did not disappointment! Mark Harmon has always been a favorite and I love his interpretation of Jethro Gibbs. He's tough and doesn't take an b.s. from anyone, especially his own team. They've got the resident computer geek, the Goth lab tech (who is awesome), the resident lothario (although Tony is a little over the top with his sexual comments--would prefer him to be a bit more professional) and ...
