Well, I’m not exactly sure why this episode has me as enthusiastic as I feel but it could be that… Kyle Harimoto’s writing feels like he pins the characters from the very beginning and not only for those few episodes… and that David Rodriguez’ directing really nailed it !!

Curious what you think about the ep… Let’s talk in the comments !! 🙂

To friends… and partners… and an awesome sixth season of NCIS Los Angeles !! 🙂

Oh wow, what a start to the new season… the episode definitely had everything I like about NCIS Los Angeles.
The Callen & Sam Bromance despite their life-threathing situation, the Densi innuendos in just the right amount, the Nell & Eric partnership, the Hetty & Granger motherly/fatherly caring… the action, the fun, the BOOM…

Maybe I’m paranoid but I think Sam saying “You son of a b*itch” and the team drinking their “Depth Charges” at the end wouldn’t have happened in an earlier time slot ?!

So, let me know… What did you like about the episode ?? Any favorite moments / quotes ?? Wasn’t it great to have the team back on our screens ??

********************************

On another note… Looks like this promo picture slipped in from a rehearsal or something… I didn’t see Callen wearing that sweater… 😉
