  1. I am a big fan of the NCIS TV shows. But when you added these two black females to your NCIS Los Angeles I decided not watch it anymore. These two characters do not fit NCIS Los Angeles show at all. Good luck with your show.

  2. FresnoCaliKing on

    Nia long is WWAAYYYY OUTTA LINE, she is trying to run NCIS LA like a dictator then fire anybody who questioned her illegal, immoral tactics, deeks didnt deserve to get fired, Called didnt deserve to get chewed out wen NOBODY called her on her bs, I really liked her until this episode, but she is a liability who dont care about anybody or anything except for herself

  3. That Mosley character has ruined the show…the finale is completely off the rails!

  4. Disappointed on

    Very disappointed in this episode. Stopped watching it and will no longer watch. The team did not back Deeks and showed no loyalty to their teammate. Done

  5. Ellen del valle on

    Agree totally with all above comments. FresnoCaliKing you nailed it. They are probably doing this on purpose but. No matter how it ends she is a poor learner using hers piwer for her needs. Can’t do that. Bad example for youth.

  6. I will not be watching this NCIS anymore if Nia Long’s character is in it. She has ruined the show.

  7. Nia Long’s character totally ruined this season. Who are the writers? They should be fired. I’ve been watching this show since the beginning, but this is the last straw. She ruined the show so much, I hope she doesn’t try to be in another show, because this ruined her career. No one cares about Mosley. Get her off the show.

  8. No reason to stop watching. This looks like the reason for an exit for the Moseley character. Hang in there guys.

  9. Just finished watching. I never understood the need for the Hetty character but now hope the Mosely character loses her job and I will learn to like Hetty.g

  10. I think they killed off the other lady agent. And Mosley charctor will be getting repremanded somehow.

    When some of you hate Nia Long charactor, that means she is playing her role good

  11. NEVER HAVE LIKE MOSLEY’S CHARACTER. I HOPE SHE DECIDES TO GO PLAY MAMA. SOMEONE HAD TO HAVE DIED IN THAT EXPLOSION. TOO BAD IT WASN’T HER. SHE IS NOT A GOOD ADDITION TO THE SHOW. HOWEVER I LOVED HIDOKO AND APPARENTLY SHE IS A GONER!!!

  12. Show stunk won’t be watching next year
    No suspense everyone knows all four will be fine just tv crsp

  13. I don’t like the role that Mosley has taken on in this finale episode. She has always been a bitch but then perhaps that’s what it takes to run an agency at this level. I do not agree with her firing Deets because he disagreed and called her out but I would hope that the producers will keep him. This is a team that works well together altho it’s just a series. I kind of like the role of Hetty because she gave it balance and wisdom of an older veteran boss. Just saying.

  14. I am pissed with Nia Long being on this show. I never like her character Mosley from the start of the season. She is a strait dictator and a complete arrogant #^:#. There is no NCIS without Deeks!! He was the only one to speak up but I believe Hetty will bring the team back and Mosley will get fired.

  15. Mosley does not belong! Abrasive, power hungry and not a team player. I hope she is gone next season. If she is still part of the cast, I am done watching too.

  16. I have not cared for the Nia Long character all season. I surely don’t like how she used her. Position to put the team in harm’s way. She must face some punishment. And hopefully the team survives and can work on getting back to the old show format.

  17. I don’t think they’d kill them all off but I don’t know how anyone could have survived that! I hope they all pull through, it would suck if any of them died!

  18. So where was Ep24? It ended with Ep23 and then nothing. Ep24 is missing and didn’t play tonight. It’s not showing for tomorrow night or next Sunday night. It’s not showing On Demand either. Ep24 is Part 2 of the finale. Madan Secretary came on in it’s place. That’s no way to end the season. That sucks!

  19. This is the last straw for me. A totally out of control, emotionally charged, angry, vengeful, and hate filled woman who cares nothing about her team. Mosley has caused such friction among the team. Putting them in such danger not caring if they live or die. I would do anything for my kids but acting like a crazed lunatic and ordering people I work with to break the law, firing people and just being a down right devil, that I could not do. I would even go to great lengths to help find my friends kid, but acting this way? No way. This didn’t even seem like an episode of NCIS LA. All thru the episode I kept thinking “what the freak am I watching?” I really hope her character is not coming back next season, or at least not for long.

  20. I enjoyed the two shows, lots of suspense and hopefully Mosely will not come back next season. Every season ends with an OMG moment and it certainly was that last night.

  21. I was totally disappointed with the cliffhanger. Almost the entire show was about the self-absorbed Moseley. She didn’t care if everyone had to die, just so she got her son back. The unlikable character just became more unlikable in my eyes. There was so much drama and nothing to cut the tension for two hours. Unfortunately for me it was anger toward Moseley! NCIS LA has always been able to find a great balance of drama and lightheartedness, but not last night! I hope Hidoko is OK. I really liked here character and thought she could really become a great part of the team. We’ll see who lives in September, by who renews their contracts. Until then, I will try to calm down. hahaha

  22. Great ending to season 9 what’s all the complaints about I didn’t like Moseley when she first came in but now I do and she a fine bit of ass too what’s not to like

  23. Mosely is completely out of control. Totally unprofessional in all elements. Hope the character is gone.

  24. I agree with these comments. That show was HORRIBLE and not like the show I love!
    The reason I always watch is because of the loyalty and banter of the team … The director is a disgrace. Sam however is the amazing.. His loyalty to himself as well as his friendship with Callen ..Deeks and Kensey… Bring a humor that keeps you coming back.
    Who could live thru the end of it… Not sure I’ll be watching anymore either

  25. i agree with all these comments against mosely. bad writers for her part. they need to get rid of mosely and the writers. i like hadelco cant stand mosely. terrible terrible ending. S0 SO DISAPPOINTED

  26. Mosley has always been self absorbed. She had always one thing in mind, HERSELF!! She has been trying to break up this team from the get go.

  27. Nia Long has got to Go! I love her in anything else but not this show. And the way she spoke to Deeks was sickening just because he told her the truth about herself and her motives. Don’t like her in this role and she’s ruining my show GetRid of Her!!!

  28. I really feel that the Mosley character is just horrible. I’m sure that Nia is a very good actress, but she sure doesn’t fit the bill for NCIS L.A.. She was terrible in the show last night.

  29. It’s just tv….with that said, I was hoping they would shoot that the helo down after it took off. Then Deeks would realize Kensie would have been on there if she had not insisted on staying with the team! Now THAT would have been a cliffhanger…as they all stand there and watch it go down.

  30. Yep I agree with most of u all, if Mosley is still on next year regardless if anyone doesn’t make it- I’m not gonna be interested in watching it anymore!!! I hope they get rid of her.

  31. Thanks to Mosely the team was very fractured. She caused a lot of friction among the team. I missed the team dynamics. It was all about Mosely who I disliked from the beginning. She’s obnoxious and self_centered. The show has changed dramatically since she joined, and agree not in a positive way.
    Wish Hetty was on more, She’s tough, fair and worries about her family. Don’t give up hope, maybe next season will return to the NCIS LA that we all loved!!

  32. Hadoko should died like that way… but still nobody know was a women or a men under those cloth… but I have a feeling it’s her body got buried alive..Mosley got her agent killed.

  33. That was some of the worst writing I have seen! Mosley does NOT belong on this show, her character has turned a great show into a disaster! For what? What the hell happened to Hettie, a tough as nails Director who has turned into a puss, allowing a selfish, stubborn character to push her around. & jeapordize the team for her own selfish reasons. I am feeling finished with this train wreck of a show, sheeeeesh!

  34. I agree with all that is said so far. That was the dumbest, most unrealistic, ridiculous episode they have ever aired. Nothing followed the characters allegiance to each other, their team or their cause as we are so used to admiring. Don’t like and never will like Mosley as a part of the show. If the show continues along that path I will definitely not be watching. Sad to see an excellent show go down.

  35. Cheryl Gallegos on

    Nia has been nothing but a disgrace to the show. The show was amazing until they brought her on now it’s just a huge disappointment she is not a good fit for the show she has done nothing but destroyed the team and the show. And yes the people behind the show will think oh well people don’t like her but they keep talking about how they don’t like her so we should keep her. That will be the biggest mistake that they could make because they are destroying an amazing show for what someone who is not only a bad actress but someone who is ruining a great series that is until they put her on it.

  36. Hate Mosely, get rid of her, please. Her character makes me dislike the show! Bring back the team! I assume Haldogo and Mosely will come in with Federal reinforcements brought in by the blond friend of Heddy’s and rescue Deeks, Kensie, Callen, and Sam… I hate clifhangers!

  37. So glad to read that many others cannot stand the Mosley character. That has made it a difficult season to watch, but I stick with it because I like the plots and the main characters that have been there since the beginning. It was nice when Hidoko was out in the field, she became more interesting and not just Mosley’s puppet.. I hope it wasn’t her in the fire. And did the team get blown up? Probably not if CBS still wants to make more money on the show.

  38. Definitely some crippled out of there, if not in a coma or dead. There isn’t a director that respects his work that would let them off easy, from an explosion like this and there isn’t an audience who will take this show seriously if no one gets damaged (unless you live in a bubble). I liked the fact that Hetty was in a “rogue” rescue mission half the season, Mosly was a necessary evil. She was clear from the beginning, she wasn’t there to make friends. You understand that in the end, her job there is done. Not just rescue her son (her agenda) but also destroy the team (orders to follow). No one liked her. Hopefully, we will get back Hetty and her eccentric ways of doing everything next season. I would like more “rogue” missions for the future and not always USA is in danger of nuclears. It would be nice an inside investigation of other NCIS departments, that they have bad agents, criminals that they are hiding behind their authority and their badge, whatever as long as we get rid of the “cold war” elements with any country opposing as threat. As far as i remember the show was “NCIS LA UNDERCOVER” (that doens necessarily means rogue), but what the heck, we have so many clean cut police-army procedural dramas, why not a “dirty” one? (“dirty” doesnt mean cops that are getting paid by bad guys, or having drug-flesh trafficking blackmailing, business of their own for those that will hurry to oppose) Do we all have to go by the rules? Why all shows have to be for youngsters and happy-enders too? reality isn’t and this show it isn’t supposed to be a rom-com. Put Deeks in a coma, let Kensi carry the guilt for this, agent Hanna should lose a limp or two, and agent G may be his spleen. Bring new agents!!! We all going to love that twist, aren’t we? Cause in a sick way, directors and channels when a show is losing audience or has lived such a long life, instead of doing so, they usually cancel it, so there you’ll have it, if you insist on keeping them alive after this, you will probably kill the show.

  39. It has to be bad when a viewer like me searches for a place to say how much I am disappointed in the way this show ended. While this would have been an unliked episode in the middle of the series – it is unacceptable at the end where resolution is months away. NCIS has risen because of its moral stance. People want that an hour. So y’all have lost the Perhaps it is arrogance due to the longevity. Whatever it was made a big mistake. Lost the audience.

  40. With all the negative comments about Mosley, looks like she played her part very well. Relax, it is just a TV show and I agree that Mosley will be in trouble when the shoe resumes in the fall. Remember it was Hetty who had Deeks brought to the airport.

  42. Sharon L. Andrews on

    I haven’t liked the Moseley character either, mostly because I don’t like change and I thought Hetty wasn’t coming back. Moseley did breathe a bit of life in the show though. I hate to see Hodoko killed off that way; really thought she was badass though.

  43. i dont like Mosely at all.Dont like the way she treats Deeks and Sam and Callen should shut her up when she fired Deeks and yet it was Deeks and Kensi that rescued her son for the most part.I really hope she has nothing to do with the explosion.

  44. I did not like Mosely or this last episode because it was not authentic and she is not authentic. The writers were not true to the show. Crappy writing! Her firing Deeks was what the writers used to put friction between Deeks and Kenzie. She would not have fired Deeks. Ridiculous! Again, bad writing. Keep the characters and get new writers!!!

  45. I agree that Mosely it not an authentic character for that kind of an agency. Really? Stillettos and tops cut half way to her navel with boobs sticking out? Very professional looking (for a madame) I think they should rethink her wardrobe and that MIGHT help her believeability, maybe. Even though it’s just a tv show and not our relatives to worry about, it would still be nice if Hidoko isn’t a pile of burnt rubble and Kensi and Deeks get their wedding WITH Sam and Callen in attendance. Very fairy tale but nothing else is real about it so, why not? I’m glad these characters aren’t my relatives to worry about from week to week..
