    I always suspected she wasn’t dead…just being a good mom and giving her little girl a good life with Tony..

  2. Merry Cathey on

    I think Ziva coming back is a good move for NCIS, writers. The episodes this past season were really a letdown. Some of the episodes made no sense whatsoever and it felt like the writers were out in left field.

  3. NCIS has jumped the shark. If Siva is alive I will not watch and I have watched every episode.

  4. Ziva has been GREATLY MISSED. She added spice to every episode. A missing Spice will always change flavors. That does not mean the show has been flavorless it’s just that the flavor has been different than when Ziva was there. It was the same way when Kate was there. I very much enjoyed watching Ziva’s spice. Ellie has a more mellow spice that has been pumped up some lately. The story of Tony and Ziva, I never got my mind wrapped around it. Not the child either.
