Very interesting. We have been NCIS fans for a while. They were, until about two or so years ago, taking potshots at the POTUS (the writers did some under Bush also). It is a crime drama with a Navy setting, and has been pretty balanced in the past.
But they are making a YUGE push for all sorts of PC cred. Much like “Agents of Shield”, they are creating and changing characters with an obvious goal of inserting “topics” into the discussion.
You can bet some new Gibb’s Rules will show up on twitter after that episode runs :o}
