You can watch a few episodes of NCIS here: http://www.hulu.com/videos/search?query=NCIS

They also air it often on USA Network.

I recently got hooked on NCIS. Now I'm a fan of almost every Bellisario series!

Did anyone catch the NCIS: Legend episodes?

It looks like it has nice potential, but I was hoping it would be set in Hawaii.

I got seasons 2-8 on amazon.com for 20 bucks a piece in late January. Hopefully they'll have another such deal in the near future.

A Magnum P.I. - Monk crossover.

Thanks for the link, golfmobile!

It appears Larry Manetti wrote a book about his experiences on the show:

70 bucks for a used book? Wow!

Is it really out of print?

I was surprised to see Ito play kendo early in the episode. It's not the most high profile martial art. I wonder if Seth Sakai was a kendo practitioner, or if a stunt double was performing? The latter may be plausible, since Ito's back is to the camera during the action segment of the scene, IIRC.

I was shocked at how often the "N" word was used in this episode. Times have changed!

I use a Playstation 2 as my DVD player, and I haven't had a problem so far.
