Did Sir Don deliver a nice New Years pressie? Scores out of 10 please.

[stingrayfan]

Loved it. I had to give it a 10 cause no Jen!!

[dmc4me]

I was kind of disappointed. With American Idol returning next week, I really wanted a super strong episode, and it seemed flat. I didn't feel like we saw enough of anybody but Tony and Ziva. (And why would Ziva invite everyone but Tony to dinner?)

[jo]

9-1/2 from me. the charles durning ep is still my no. 10 - and not much can beat it, imo.
i thought this ep had everything - humor, action, a wounded tony [lol], gibbs on the prowl looking for his people, mcgee taking charge, worried abby, compassionate ducky.... AND NO JEN!!!! great show. i'd probably give it a 9-9/10.

Oh dmc4me, I so agree with you. Why they even had Ziva in the episode is beyond me. ;D It would have been fine with just Tony boxed in.


I gave it a 9.5 because it was almost perfect. Not enough Tony to be a 10.

I gave it a 9.5. I thought it was very nice. I would have probably given it a 10 if we got to see Ziva and Tony eating Italian food and watching that Bollywood film.

This ep got a 9 from me. The only flaw was that there wasn't near enough of the rest of the team and I find it hard to believe that Gibbs would go to Ziva's to eat dinner with the whole team except for Tony.

[jtbwriter]

I gave it a 9-an all-around great epi!

Ducky comforting the worried Abby, Tony and his movie
homages-Ziva's actually being drawn into them in spite of herself, and her reluctant tenderness with him.

And Gibbs-there in the nick of time!

But the denoument-poor Tony's face!

A priceless episode! ;D

[AngelZ]

Tony was his usual perfectness!

9.5 for me.

He couldn't have gone to Ziva's for dinner the previous night - he was too busy partying with his Tartlets! ;D

[alethea]

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who thought the ep was flat....it was pretty entertaining, and I can't complain about anyone's performance but it just didn't have any zing to it. (Plus not enough Gibbs, but that's just me )

[Aerie]

That proves the point that "flat" means not enough of your favorite guy, alethea. This ep had so much zing for me because it had lots of Tony.

That's what makes Special Ops so great. It would be boring if we all agreed. ;D

oh, so that's where you all were! at the mud wrestling pit again.

[swingcat]

Loved it .. OMG I gave another 10 and I've finally made it 350 posts... Still a long way to go to get the Special Agent though. Maybe this time next year *grin*

Well what can I say, anything that has plenty of Tony or Gibbs in it is a winner in my book. I'm not going to comment on Tony's non invitation to the dinner. I don't want to go into some Ducky rant so I won't start. Gotta love the Duck man and his rants I certainly do

Liked the opening sequence..it gave it some good heat. Didn't like the timeline it took to find them though..far too much Ziva in this one..though,I didn't mind all the Tony.

I would have enjoyed seeing a bit more intensity in their scenes if we had to see so much Ziva..too much chit chat about idle garbage.

The stalling of time when they were confronted either with coming out or dying..now, that wasn't too bad. I could think of a few ways to have made it a bit better though.

The ending was a bit anti-climatic..considering how long we had to sit through them being in the containment trailer.

[mwfan]

I gave this episode 9.5. I loved it! There where so much Tony:)

I didn´t like the bad guy. I had a feeling about him the whole episode.
