Pacci's back!!!

[justafan]

Yay! Gibbs dad, Franks, Fornell! Great! Too bad they didn't invite Lauren Holly back 😥 how about Gerald?

[drakeissix]

Yep I knew we see papa Gibbs again this season. .

[jo]

No Kate? That seems odd if Ari is going to be in it...

[mary]

Oh, I sooo wanted Kate to be in this episode! I'm clinging to the hope that they didn't want to spoil the surprise by putting her name on the cast list now
But yay for Pacci, Fornell and Ari!

[drakeissix]

I'd serious doubt will see Sasha Alexander in this episode she working on the cable series Rizzoli & Isles were Ironically she plays a female Ducky lol. Most TV contracts have clauses preventing appearances on other TV series . And if you remember last seasons episode where Kate's older sister shows up I think you only see Sasha's face once and it was at the very end. It would be cool to see her again but only if her ghost added something to the episode . Still I'm worried about this episode being a incoherent mess jamming a 17 special guest stars in to 42+ minutes of prime time TV hopefully the 200th episode is great and not one that ends up on peoples ten worst list.

[Holly]

This episode looks great!

Clare Carey (Ann Gibbs)

Interesting. It seems we'll get to see Gibb's Mom. Count me in as someone who can't wait to see that! ;D

I love Rizzoli and Isles. ;-) Angie Harmon has been a fave for years. And while Kate was not my fave person, I'm always interested in what Sasha's doing -- and I love her in this. She and Angie have a great chemistry.
Since R&I is off till June or July, I thought she'd have time to do a guest appearance -- but I didn't know about contracts prohibiting appearances... Maybe that's the case.
And maybe they'll pull up some old footage of her so that she can be included...

link for some promo pictures www.spoilertv.com/2012/01/ncis-episode-914-life-before-his-eyes_23.html. Yes and what I've seen of Rizzoli and Isles (about 5 episodes) it's alot of fun.

[AngelZ]

Yay promo

This looks awesome! Hey, isn't that the font that was used in the Star Wars logos?

[zivers]

.... Time travel anyone and anyone else notice this is the 3rd different actress that they have used for Kelly??? Maybe she's a different age that the usual 8 year old we see.... I'm also shocked that we are seeing no Jenny. Ari... but no Kate or Gerald (also finds this odd - even if the used old footage One would think that her name would still appear in the credits line)

[drakeissix]

Well I'm a bit less worried about this episode since I saw the preview Tuesday its seems like its going to be alot less gimmicky than I thought it was going to be. As far as Jenny (ie Lauren Holly ) they kill her off and never once even show her in flash back in the season 6 opening episode, it seems she got in some kind of a feud with the producers during season 5 and Lauren wasn't asked back. Neither side is talking at all, it's oh so Hollywood when people sign non disparagement agreements when contract disputes are settled so I wasn't shocked when Jenny wasn't listed. And sense Sasha working on another series it not too surprising she's not included . But will see if there are some flash back surprises? Who knows until we watch
