Farewell, Ziva David
 

Cote De Pablo announced that she is leaving NCIS after 8 seasons. She will return long enough to wrap up her character's story but will not remain for the full 11th season.

Farewell Ziva, it was fun!

I wonder if the writers will use this opportunity to have Jeanne Benoit (Scottie Thompson) return?

Say it ain't so!!!!

That's too bad. Its a good show and she's a good character. Not to mention easy on the eyes.
But, 11 years is a long run for any show. It may not matter who takes her place. Don't be surprised if they pull the plug at the end of the season.

Yeah I know. The thing with Jamie Lee Curtis was downright painful.:(

I hate to hear this. Between her and Paulie Perette and McGee and ducky are my favorites.

Why is she quitting? Is she going back to Peru?

I guess everyone here knows that she isn't really Israeli; she 's a Catholic from Peru. But a very good actress.

I was hoping that she and Tony would finally get together.

Grace Park also supposedly wants to leave "Hawaii Five-O". She's a Korean-Canadian and doesn't like Hawaii, and the show interferes with her marriage. Wants to go home to B.C.

Both actresses can probably retire on what they made from those series.

I hope Five-0 gets Lauren German back. I miss her.

Now this is a very sad thing to read:(

She adds so much to the shows dynamics. They all do so removing any of them will hurt. I really liked Sasha Alexander and it was a dramatic end for her. Took a while to get used to the change but ended up liking Cote better.

Bummer.

Lauren Holly (former director) can be seen as the ME on the new show Motive. Bring her back and get rid of Rocky.

Pauley (Abby) is still my favorite what a nut case!:) She really is smart.

Good show. Been watching it for years. My favorite. Going to miss Ziva.

NCIS is the only network TV show I watch, and Cote De Pablo is one of the main reasons!
I never cared for Sasha Alexander, and don't miss her one bit.
I've always been a big fan of the Israelis the way their military/intel forces do business and so I find the character of Ziva David appealing on many levels.

Lauren Holly burned that bridge long ago when she left over "creative differences" with the producers. They killed her in a shootout, remember?

Sasha Alexander has always said she made an error leaving the show. She didn't think it would last another season and bailed. Took a bullet in the brain for that line of thinking, didn't she? (Anyone see a pattern here?).

They could do a spinoff: "The Ghost and Mr. Gibbs". :D:D

:(

Lauren Holly was a local to my county and even more to where i work.

My favorite line from her is...''Do you want me to kick her ***''

And the funny thing is she is not even close to being Israeli.:)

Kensi Blye better not leave the other NCIS show, I only watch it for her. ;)

Did you see "Shaggy" kiss her??:D

She will be missed, liked her character, and you know they kill her off just like kate.

She, on the other hand, is a Portugies jew.

She's a fine actress and will be missed. But as long as NCIS continues to being in the ratings that it does, they should be in good shape for some time to come. The supporting cast are all great and "Gibbs" is outstanding.

Would be a great place to be. :D

Fixed it for you.

Poppy Montgomery has a new detective show this fall. Saw an ad for it.

She did well as the blonde FBI agent in NYC in, "Without a Trace."

I doubt that most fans ever realized that both she and Anthony LaPaglia, her boss on the show, are really Australians. A lot of Aussie actors fake US accents really well.

LaPaglia's son is currently starring in the Aussie series "Underbelly-The Bad" on the Audience channel. Looks just like his dad.
f.t.

P.S. Back on topic,I will also miss Cote.

Loved her character and acting.

Johnny Depp is not really an American Indian either which is why they call them actors.

I'm impressed with the actors who can portray a character that is different than who they really are. One that comes to mind is Larry Hagman as J.R. Ewing on Dallas.

Interesting character
 

Ziva sees things a little different than we Americans. She put up a good fight. What I liked best, though, was her shooting.

Ditto on the Sasha!
 

I'm not much on her (Sasha) acting, on NCIS or that other program. Ziva was a singer in California for a while before NCIS. She did a singing bit on one of the episodes. That "thing" between Kate and Tony got old real quick. And what about the few episodes after the one where she got killed. Anyway, I , like others, am sorry to hear this. I always say that if you go to the S&W forum, you can't help but learn something. Would you say that Ziva is a J or K frame? DLB

I'd say Ziva is a K-frame. Fixed sights, sleek and smooth, 5-inch pencil barrel. Not short enough to be a 2-inch barrel, not tall enough to be a 6-inch barrel. Yep, 5-incher for sure. :)

Half the fun of the show was her slips when she tried to use English idioms and her interaction with Dinozo (spelling)

I think that this will be a reason to wrap up the show entirely, who and how could you replace her, she became very popular, much more so than Kate did. Even how they had Gibbs take to her as more of a father figure. I don't see the show really working well without her.

I have always thought the show could survive the lose of any character except Gibbs. Ther is too much of the "Gunny" for the show to survive without him. That being said it will be a tough go without Ziva. I agree it is probabgly the last season for the show, unfortunately...

I keep hope that Admiral Aj Chedwig (sp) guest appearance wont be the last of the JAG tie ins. Would be nice to at least have AJ give an update on Harm and Mac. If NCIS is ending take it full circle it all started with JAG

Chegwidden (sp). Poppy Montgomery has some serious blessings; good thing I am not a bad enough person to have the bad thoughts some of you will.:D

JayCeeNC, you forgot the important part of the specifications, which I will leave to the crowd to intuit so I don't get moderator attention.:p

I tend to think of a 3", although maybe a properly customized 4".

Yes and there were few hotter than Catherine Bell. Do a ga ga search of her out of her Military uniform and hair up.:D:D

Neither is Lou Diamond Phillips:rolleyes:

Well heck, we are going to miss Zeva. Sorry to hear she is leaving NCIS because we always look foward to her funny sayings and interpretations that she would come up with.

Big "D" little "i" big "N" little "ozo"

:D

Love the show and hate to see her go.

The swapped "Darrens" on Bewitched a long time ago. Just saying that it could happen.

Bio says born in Santiago Chile. I believe she has been here quite a while.

Noooooooooooooooo! but then again I thought when Kate left it would suck :)

Love that show, especially Mr. Buckeye!

I've watched the show on and off for years I like it but I think it has run it's course. I like when Ralph Waite shows up as Gibbs' dad. And the Bob Newhart episodes.

I believe Ziva to be a sleek K frame, definitely a +P model. Hate to see her go.
