NCIS is not the best TV series out there, but if you give it a change it will grow on you as it did on me (it’s actually the 5th most seen TV Series out there [see Rating section in Wikipedia]).
All characters are very well defined stereotypes. The Naval Criminal Investigative Service team is lead by a hard core marine - as strict as they come -, and composed of an Italian D. Juan (a movie trivia encyclopedia and second-in-command), an MIT computer geek (which fancies himself a novel writer), a quite caring female assassin (trained by the Mossad and serving has a liaison officer), a goth evidence and forensic specialist and a ’scotch’ for chief medical examiner.
It would be hard to have a more heterogeneous bunch of people anywhere in the world but I think they make a very good team when they start working together.
With already six seasons aired by CBS, NCIS seems to be a spinoff of JAG. I’m currently watching Season 6, hoping that Season 7 is underway.
