 Editor's Note
 Television's charismatic military investigative team is back in season four of this clever show about what goes on behind the sealed doors of the Navy and the Marines. Former head of the unit, Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) is forced to come out of retirement to help his colleague Ziva David (Cote de Pablo), when she finds herself in heap of trouble. But will his return to the NCIS team lead to any more revelations about his past? And what other secrets might be uncovered when the entire team comes under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security? The mysteries are creative and thrilling, but the real charm lies in the quirky gang of detectives and scientists who are equal parts brilliant investigators and eccentric personalities.

| | Professional Reviews | DVD Verdict 9 of 10 Magnum, P.I., Airwolf, Quantum Leap, JAG; I'd say Donald Bellisario has a few hits to his credit. As a matter of fact, Tequila & Bonetti is about his only TV flop. As a writer, Bellisario is gifted with the ability to write great action mixed with humor and quirky characters that we grow to love. Despite the complex title, NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service is no exception. Heed the bosun's whistle and get on board: this ship is about to sail into adventure...NCIS is very much under the radar. It's a strong weekly performer, but it doesn't get a lot of press or buzz. I think the reason many people never tuned in was because of the show's military theme. If that's the case, watch. - Cynthia Boris
