After Kate, I gave Ziva a season and just could not like her character so I quit watching. May have to start again.
Yes, they fill the same slot and look kind of sort of the same, but you have to think of them as totally separate characters. Not a direct replacement.
I like Ziva much more than I did kate. She’s toughbut not constantly nasty bitchy like I found Kate, and if there is one quality that makes a woman repulsive to me, it’s that bitchy streak like Kate constantly showed.
Ziva’s the greatest, but she’s leaving.
And I may stop watching when Ziva leaves.....thought she was an amazing actress.....believable as an Israeli
