There is no best of Bishop on NCIS. She’s a terrible actress and doesn’t fit the part at all. Disappointing casting and should have been switched early on.
I was going to say the same thing. The best of what?
Oh, give it a rest. Bishop has been on the show for around three years now. USA has given the “best” of NCIS shows to everyone–so why not Bishop? Boo-hoo, for you–all the stuff going on in the world, and this gets you upset? Wow–shallow much? For the record, like someone else said below–I like Bishop and I like how Gibbs is mentoring her and how she fits into the show. Want some cheese to go with your continual whining??
Thank you. God, enough already,
hahahahaha…well said, People really need to get over it and quit being so salty about Ziva leaving, it was HER choice. She clearly didn’t want to be involved anymore with NCIS. Get over it. Emily Wickersham is coming into her own. People seem to forget that she is HUMAN just like the rest of us. Quit being so f’n hateful, she’s just doing her job.
I don’t dislike Emily Wickersham, but I do dislike very much her dishwater weak character on NCIS. Such people may be suited to do desk work there, but definitely not be qualified kickass field agents.
Disliking Emily Wickersham (and Bishop) has nothing to do with Cote de Pablo (and Ziva). Emily is a horrible actress and Bishop is a horrible character.
What you don’t seem to understand is that one can dislike Bishop without being a Ziva fanatic.
.
I liked Ziva, especially after she’d been on the show for a while — I didn’t like her at all in the early part of season 3, but she grew on me. That said, she’s gone, and I’m fine with it. But I don’t like Bishop — she’s a weak character, was cut way too much slack in the beginning, and still doesn’t fit into the team — and she often gets screen time at the expense of the other characters (hmmm…I wonder if that factored into Weatherly’s departure?). She’s not convincing as a field agent at all. My husband doesn’t even want to watch any more — her presence is a complete turnoff. He thinks the rest of the team turned into pod people when she was added to the cast.
.
So, to recap — not a Ziva diehard, and I still dislike Bishop.
So says you. She is doing a decent job. Ziva was not Kate and she wasn’t supposed to be. Bishop is not supposed to be a clone of the Mossad assassin.
You can spell NCIS without using the letters Z, V & A.
After I watch season finale of black sails, Starz is going bye bye for a while
No interest in Outlander??? a terrific show… I do love Black Sails and tough to have to wait another year to see what happens…
“A second game airs at 8:30”? Really that much respect for the Elite 8?
I like Bishop! There I said it. I liked her from day 1! I said that too! There IS Best of Bishop! I said that too! I like that Gibbs has a young one to mentor. I never thought having a Masad assassin on the “Team” was believable. But she played nice and Gibbs liked her, so that was nice. It’s ALL about GIBBS people when you gonna get that!
The Ten Commandments!!!!!!!
Woohoo. Enjoy the heck out of this movie every time. Sometimes it is so campy and over-the-top. It’s great.
Lets take a shot every time somebody says “Moses, Moses!!” We’ll all be passed out by the second hour.
Don’t. Encourage. The. Bronies.
Pretty lame Sat. fare. I picked up A Walk In The Woods at the Library instead.
Black Sails.
I’ve got the Blu-ray of Steve Jobs, and I’ll probably watch an episode or two of TV’s best cop show Bosch. Although I enjoyed season one of Bosch, season two upped its game.
The Ten Commandments most definitely it’s the best Easter tradition!!!!
” the Best of NCIS’ Bishop”
That’s going to be short. There is NONE! Now if you were to say “The Worst of NCIS’ Bishop”. We will be here for weeks. Because it will be ALL.
Not all agents of any agency start off as kick ass prodigies. Tony work in police dept. Kate had been in the Secret Service, Gibbs in the Marines, Ziva in Mossad, Tim was an analyst at first ? I think, And timid – but he came into his own. Not everyone on a “Team” should have the same skill set, obviously Gibbs saw something in Bishop that he thought would benefit his team. I disagree that Emily is a poor actress.
