The first season of the ginormous franchise "NCIS" all started with an extremely compelling pilot. The season was full of grandeur and met everyone's expectations for the crime thriller genre, compiled with lovable and iconic characters who you could not help but admire throughout the different episodes and spiderweb of stories. The investigation unit is one of the finest on television. I hope the show does not produce too much though; it would be a shame if it lost its way.
