NCIS: LA


So I first fell in love with the original NCIS back when Sasha Alexander was on the show from seasons 1 and 2. I didn't know what the heck NCIS stood for but it was a witty show with a few laughs here and there. The show was probably the best from seasons 3-5 when and Cote de Pablo just joined and Lauren Holly was still in the show. Mark Harman was of course my favourite character since he was the "badass boss". A close second would be David McCallum, maybe he would have made the top of the list if I even understood half of his references to movies I never even heard of haha.

So how does the new series NCIS: LA stand in comparison? Not as great. It is still a decent show that I would watch but there isn't much of a comparison. The original NCIS just has better developed characters. Perhaps NCIS is meant for a younger audience with Chris O'Donnell and LL Cool J. I've read a few articles saying NCIS: LA could take over NCIS: DC but I don't see that happening any time soon. Both shows are good but if I had to recommend only one to watch, it would be the original NCIS.

PB&J


For all the non-The Office fans the title means Pam Beesley and Jim

Absolutely the best scene in The Office history.
Favourite part: When Kevin walks down the wedding isle and then trips.

Does everyone agree with me when I say "finally Jim and Pam get married!"? You had to watched the episode to understand why Kevin was wearing tissue boxes for shoes or like why Jim's tie was cut in half. I am sure many, if not all, of you already watched the real wedding "forever" video and I always liked that video because of its uniqueness and its originality.
Maybe its because I watched this episode with my cousins, who I haven't seen in a long time, or maybe because it was during my Thanksgiving dinner, but I think this was the best episode of The Office in all 6 seasons. I remember the first time I watched The Office. My cousin showed me the 4th episode (The Alliance) of the 1st season. I wondered why this show was so weird. They would make references to "thats what she said" and Dwight's character just seemed awkward. But some how I found the more I watched the show the more it grew on me. I began to understand all the inside jokes and Dwight became my favourite character. His rivalry with Jim became hilarious with all the pranks like the staple in jell-o.

I feel the office will end soon because Jim got his promotion to co-manager and Jim and Pam finally got married (something fans have been waiting for ever since the first episode). Whether this is the last season or not, The Office is a show I would recommend to anyone at anytime.
