Throwback tv

Many people love NCIS, and many people don't. Either way these pictures somehow takes me back to the early days when the show was first on. The initial runs of tv shows have such a sense of promise to them, all mystery and potential--the potential to be excellent, to be meaningful.

Many times you're let down eventually, but that early mystery is truly exciting. In an alternate universe, the show could have gone a thousand different ways, I love imagining those divergent courses the show could have taken. NCIS and Person of Interest [and even the modern Hawaii Five-0] are shows that had interesting moments in the beginning and went in directions that weren't always what everyone wanted or enjoyed, but despite that, remembering the early days is very nostalgic and fun.
