NCIS: New Orleans

I love all the NCIS shows,

but the new girl on NCIS New Orleans I can do without,

don't like her at all. It's really hard to watch now,

she is taking over the show to cocky. If she stays on the show I don't think I will continue to watch.. .sorry.

Need to bring in someone that is not a know-it-all, let Pride still be in charge I really like the other cast members. Need to continue without bringing in somebody that don't fit and try to change everything. Bring back the other girl she fit in perfect with the cast, not like this girl they brought in.

Take a lousy plot and try and make up for it by making your main character a guy that loves to cook creole food and plays in a jazz band. Drop lots of street and neighborhood names and generally WAY too much "culture" and what do you get? NCIS New Orleans. Oh, and make sure you include street violence and a corrupt politician. The crooked politician and trumpeter are WAY overplayed. I'm from NOLA and I hoped this would at least be close to as good as the original NCIS. Instead it tries to play off the fame of the original and America's fascination with our unique culture to make poor writing sell. But then trying to use exaggerated cultures of various cities to sell lousy writing is an old game.

I liked this series so much at first. I'm a huge NCIS fan. The cast of this show has always been very good. My problem now is with the storylines. The show no longer deals with dead sailors or marines. It seems to be more about international terrorism and various personal problems of cast members. A big part of the time I have no idea what's supposed to be going on. I'm afraid this show jumped the shark a good while ago. It's beginning to remind me of a want to be "Burn Notice." I'm so disappointed.

Different city, cast and plot lines. Quit comparing apples and oranges. What I like about this and the other franchises is that it also focuses on the individual team members - otherwise, it would be the same thing every week.

I love the NCIS shows. Entertaining characters, diverse and textured scenery. I like that the writers sometimes come up with a plot that I haven't seen or read in any variation before.

THAT BEING SAID,I must pose the question: Is it possible to write a good TV show without inserting an agenda? For instance, Persons of Interest was taken off the air after soon after a self involved individual took the focus off the "team" and their work and diverted a portion of the attention to a lesbian relationship. It sapped the strength of the program. I see the same thing happening here.

Making the characters deeper is a great idea but, really, in real life do you realize how few people per capita are homosexual? So if there are so few that interact with hetero's in real life, how does it benefit the program to force on the average viewer something that they cannot really grasp or identify with?

Thanks for your attention. This is wisdom that could make you money. Hope you hear me.
