@LadyBJKD 923 cliffhanger into 924 is the BOMB! Only a week away. I'll be watching it on TV from Hawaii with sand in my toes.

NCIS
Here’s a question from TV Guide about next week’s episode:
Question: Any scoop on NCIS’ Tony-centric episode? — Mary Kate
Ausiello: The season’s penultimate hour is no less than Michael Weatherly’s “favorite episode in a long time, one where I got to do some other things,” the actor told Matt Mitovich during a extended Q&A that will post next week. As DiNozzo escorts an admiral’s daughter (played by Boardwalk Empire alum Meg Chambers Steedle) from Marseilles, France, to the States, Weatherly promises, “Charade-style fun — sort of like Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn on the run.”
The May 5 issue of TV Guide Magazine has an article (previously mentioned here) about the season eleven finale and the tribute to Ralph Waite (Jackson Gibbs). You can find scans of the article here and here.

Be sure to check out this interview with Executive Producer Shane Brennan from Assignment X—here’s an excerpt:
When we create these shows, from the start, when we first bring the characters together and the situation that they’re in and the stories that they might be involved in, we have a vision of that. And the thing about a successful show is that that vision has to change as you do it. If it doesn’t change, the show stagnates and the characters stagnate. If you take Episode 113 and look at it alongside Episode One, all the faces are the same. There are certain elements in each of the characters that are the same. But the journey has changed everyone, because the characters have become engaged emotionally in the stories that they tell, that they become involved in, and as a result, they change. If you don’t have your characters grow and change, the audience can’t grow with them. So is the show different? It’s definitely different, and that’s something I’m actually delighted with.
