Stephanie Holland Tell-Tale TV As season premieres go, this was a perfectly fine episode, but nothing too extraordinary happened. At a certain point, we knew where the story was going, but the fun of NCIS: LA makes the trip worth taking. Rated: 3.5/5 Nov 9, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

thanatos i The show has gone all woke, preachy, gaslighty and tries to downplay BS like CRT to make it something good. I've started to fast forward through episode to just see characters I like, but seems like half the cast is gone at one time or another. It's definitely not as fun as it used to be. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I know the snowflake generation are spineless, whiney demanders, but do the characters of Namazi and Roundtree have to be such complete twats? Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Love this show and glad to see Henrietta again. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member I realize COVID made things difficult, but NCIS:LA has veered into oncoming traffic and is heading for a crash. It's gone all woke, obnoxious, preachy, gaslighty (right, they're just "protesters" and there's no "fiery but mostly peaceful" Critical Race Theory riots, like we're complete idiots and don't see cities, businesses and lives burning to the ground) and neoracist on the one hand, and it's stretching out uninteresting, unnecessary tangent arcs that focus on guest characters on the other hand. What it looks like is that that they couldn't have all the cast working on the same episode at the same time, so every episode has only half the regular cast, and it's all padded out with filler characters. And this Anna/Katya arc has gone on about 3 episodes too long. It's all very well to have an extended arc that is centered around one of the main characters, and they do an episode here and there where they get distracted or go off on a tangent for other reasons. But there's like 4 episodes that have nothing to do with the NCIS service. They're not even contriving a token reason for the NCIS government institution to be involved in this nonsense. Wrap it up and get this vehicle back under control. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member We have watched this show for years but this season feels cheesy and tacky with forced acting and weak scripting. What happened?? Can hardly bare to watch it. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Awful script, no humor, bad acting, may as well finish the show if this is what it will be like.
