One thing’s for sure, this detective doesn’t want to make friends on NCIS: Origins. For that matter, he seems even less concerned with doing things by the rules. To hell with agreements.
Although the series follows a classic case-of-the-week format, it does an excellent job of integrating everything into the main plot.
Now that the secret is more or less out, we can finally discuss the central plot points of NCIS: Origins . But don’t worry – I’ll save that for last.
God knows there was a lot to watch in this episode.
Gibbs and Franks may be safe, but don’t fall for any of the new faces in NCIS: Origins
First of all, the character of Randy in NCIS: Origins deserves a lot of praise. At first, he seems like an old-fashioned, bumbling good boy who follows every rule to the letter.
He’s definitely that guy, but the way he handles situations isn’t rigid or black and white.
Case in point: He didn’t report Gibbs when he sabotaged the elevator to trap the suspect. I’m sorry to say this, but if it were me, I would call right away.
Don’t get me wrong – justice is very important. But I’m not going to let newbies get in the way of me and my work. Unless you take a pay cut, I’ll do what my boss says.
Randy is a good character, but many of the new characters are worth thinking about. For one thing, they weren’t in Gibb’s life anymore, so what happened?
Are you telling me that Tyla Abercrumbie’s Mary Jo isn’t delivering the perfect side-eye somewhere? This is the main thing to worry about with the prequels and new characters.
These new supporting characters can be killed off at any time without breaking continuity.
‘NCIS: Origins’ Selects the Best and Brightest Actors to Deliver Unforgettable Performances
However, we know Franks isn’t going anywhere. Not for a long time. Before that, Kyle Schmid will continue to slay as the protagonist’s mentor.
We have to hand it to Schmid. We do. He gives a very conscientious performance as McFranks. So much so that every time he was on screen all I saw was this character.
It’s not just the main cast that delivers incredible performances. I’m going to say broadly that the culprit in this episode was played by Richard Blackmon.
The actor gave a great performance and really sold the Prado. This is especially impressive given that Blackmon has been in the industry for less than a decade.
Richard Blackmon is known for his roles in “9-1-1: Lone Star,” “The Sky Is Pink” and “Animal Kingdom.” With his acting skills, I’m sure the points will only keep piling up.
Little does Gibbs (Austin Stowell) know that Agent Strickland is the real danger he should be worried about. Whenever Gibbs was mentioned, the woman couldn’t help but comment on how sexy he was.
Like, go away, girl. Apparently he had been taken down. No, I’m not referring to the incredibly cute Lala Dominguez.
Gibbs’ head was a scary place and he tried his best to control it
Gibbs’ only relationship was with his late wife. There won’t be room for anyone else until he’s dealt with his grief.
To be honest, we only care because Gibbs is so handsome. If he was a troll, we’d say, “He needs to take some time to learn to love himself again.”
Instead, we say, “Get out there and get back on that horse.” Anyone who has experienced the kind of loss that this character has experienced knows that there is no right way to get over grief.
Everyone deals with it in their own way, and everyone has the right to deal with it in the way they choose, as long as they don’t harm themselves or others. If you’re a long-time fan of the series, I know what you’re thinking and we’ll get to it. be patient.
I agree with Franks and Robert Taylor (Longmire) Jackson Gibbs; LeRoy should have been there and waiting. He spent half the time trying to control his emotions.
In a job like this, you have to be able to make the right decisions instantly. If you get distracted by unresolved issues, someone might die.
‘NCIS: Origins’ takes viewers into a story decades in the making
Well, you’ve waited long enough. For those who want to know nothing about where NCIS: Origins is headed, skip to the end of the review because things are about to be spoiled.
here it is. Longtime fans of “NCIS” know that Gibbs eventually found the murderer of his wife and daughter and killed him.
This is clearly the path NCIS: Origins is taking, and it makes perfect sense. Gibbs’ father told his son in the NCIS: Origins premiere, “You’re not cut out for this job.”
We now know that the only reason Gibbs joined the NIS was to gain resources to find the killers of his wife and daughter. However, there may be more to the story than we know.
There’s a good chance the series will contain some previously unknown details about the event. Or maybe the way it’s told is simply not the way things happened.
However, while we know what Gibbs’ motivations are in this story, we’ve yet to see what Agent LaLa has to do with all of this.
As present-day Gibbs says at the end of NCIS: Origins Season 1 Episode 1, “This is her story.” So, somehow, Lala will be to Gibbs. become very important.
Considering that Gibbs is and will always be a ladies’ man, it’s safe to assume that he and Lala became romantically involved at some point.
Don’t act like you didn’t think the same thing. A beautiful woman plus a handsome man equals a plot written by oneself.
Despite its formulaic approach and some tropes, CBS’s “NCIS: Origins” is still an incredible series. It’s the perfect vehicle to bring new viewers into the NCIS family.
I hope this show continues for a while. For Gibbs, it’s a fun trip down memory lane, filled with traces of ’90s nostalgia.
NCIS: Origins is slowly taking viewers into a story decades in the making.
Who do you think will be the first to understand Gibbs’ intentions?
Is it too exciting to see Gibbs and Lala together?
