NCIS: Tony & Ziva
Parent and Kid Reviews
What's the Story?
NCIS: TONY & ZIVA continues the NCIS storyline with Tony (Michael Weatherly) reconnecting with Ziva (Cote de Pablo), who had faked her death to elude an attacker. Together, the two live overseas with their daughter Tali (Isla Gie). But international threats put them back into action, especially when those threats hit close to their family.
Is It Any Good?
Fans of the original NCIS who've followed the two characters throughout their relationship will love seeing what the two are up to now. Clearly, Weatherly and de Pablo have years of chemistry, and their ease around each other comes through in NCIS: Tony & Ziva.
Those new to the NCIS world will benefit from a quick primer on the two characters that this show provides; their enjoyment will increase the more they learn about the characters' backstory. Existing fans can jump right into the story thanks to the years of lore they already have under their belt.
