I will miss her character and her malapropisms, they are fun.

(...boss looks mad).... He’s going to chew you up (chew you out)

You’ve got to cut the man some slacks (slack)

You might want to do something about your hair... it’s sticking up like a porcuswine (porcupine)

I feel like a donkey’s butt.

I think we’ve been screwed in here Tony. (bolted in)

Mind if I take a bat nap? (cat nap)

It’ll be like trying to find a pin in the haystack. (needle in a haystack)

Kody was covering his plates. (bases)

I think Tony was jerking your brain (chain)

You look run over. (run down)

It’s like shooting fish in a pond! (barrel)

Why haven’t you breasted them? (busted them)

McGee, you look like you saw a goat. (ghost)

No buzzers. (bells)

NCIS ping. Will she depart as Kate did? I hope not.

I'm sorry she is leaving. I suppose the writers will have her killed.

I hope Tony makes a hit before she goes.

Too easy. Better that she suffers some horrid death and Tony is left with regrets.

I hate this news....love that show and all the characters - let them into my living room every chance I get.

Hoping this is just a contract negotiation ploy.

With her “brother” out of the picture, she will probably go back to Israel and to Mossad.

I always preferred the idea of Gibbs getting together with her rather than Tony. He always seemed to show such special affection for her. I don’t even want to know, if they harm her or kill her off, I need to stop watching now, because she is my favorite character. If she goes back to Mossad, that’s OK, that’s who she is. Nice to at least have a sympathetic character from Mossad.

Maybe she gets her Dad’s job running Mossad. Then she can be a recurring character. But that’s just wishful thinking on my part. Just hope she doesn’t exit the way Kate did.

Since I watch it on USA, it’s always repeats. I have my favorites. I pretty much tune out any of the early episodes with Kate, too dull. Intensely dislike Director Sheppard and her unprofessional vendettas. Director Vance, don’t like him very much either, but the actor who plays him has an amazing face and can show so much emotion without doing or saying anything. All in his eyes. The other characters have become too familiar to me, and I have to take breaks from watching, because I need to remind myself - these are characters on TV, not real people. I will really miss Ziva. She is a one of a kind character. But provides me a good reason to separate myself from the show.

I didn’t take to Kate that much either...Ziva adds a new dimension - love her. Thought Lauren Holly was too ‘Hollywood” of a choice - just unrealistic. But the rest of them seem real to me and I really enjoy them.

So sick of these Barbie dolls they expect us to take seriously - like that girl on Covert Affairs who can’t seem to act without her mouth hanging open. Blech. But then I’m a female who doesn’t watch for the T&A.

I'd prefer Gibbs' affection for her remained the paternal variety. These characters function much like a family, and Gibbs' romantic involvement would feel to me like a violation of family and trust.

Since she’s leaving, will the producers quit using the Mossad as their go-to bad guys?

“Gibbs’ romantic involvement would feel to me like a violation of family and trust. “

Does he still have the hots for the mystery redhead?

Leftist propaganda.

Besides, everyone only watches it for the goth chick.

I watch the reruns regularly, too. Not so much with Kate. Love Ziva! The whole cast are my ‘friends’, I guess in the way that people watch (used to watch) soap operas.

But I can’t understand why any actor or actress would want to keep doing the same role for so many years. So Good Luck, Cote! Every one of your shows was terrific!

I don't think they'll kill off the character. Too many deaths, especially of women cast members, so I don't think they'll kill her.

Kate was shot, Jenny was shot. Jackie Vance was shot. I can't imagine they'd kill off the David character.

Also since her father was just shot, as well.

I'm a loyal viewer, but don't think there was anymore they could do with the "Tiva" relationship...too much water under the bridge :) I think it's time for a new cast member or bring in a recurring cast member as a regular. I like the Coast Guard investigator, liked the chaplain, and like Kate's sister, just not sure how they'd fit in as a "regular."

Anyone catch the episode where Tony and Ziva were driving to a call, and then were T-boned by a bad guy? Notice just before the collision they were gazing at each other and kinda holding hands...hmmmm (close up on the hand caress).

What did happen in Berlin?
