Shell Shock Sneak Peak

[drakeissix]

Not bad, actually quite good can't give a grade yet till I see part 2. Again this is a episode were I think the crime story is a classic Hitchcock style Mcguffin to tell a timely tale about PTSD . No other show dare try to show a vet with ptsd and not make him a complete stereotypical left wing dream villain. It's episodes like this were you can see Donald Bellasiro's Sr ideas still reflected in NCIS. He used to do episodes all the time in JAG where difficult issues and ideas evolving the US military where discussed and the consequences of when the military is called to action, the good , the bad and tragic (that was JAG at it best) . Hopefully part two wont be a major disappointment or easy cop out as many recent two part episodes have been. Cant wait till next week.
