Season 9 Low in Viewers
Apr 17 2012, 7:12 PM EDT | Post edited: Apr 17 2012, 7:12 PM EDT
I've just read that Season 9 of NCIS is low viewers, and I'm wondering if that's because new is really happening. Admittedly, I haven't been watching the last few episodes, but that's because I'm waiting for an episode for McGee. He's one of my favorite characters from the show and I've noticed lately that he's not growing as a character. He's not getting that same depth that all the other's have.
McGee (Sean Murray) has been a part of NCIS since Season 1, yet all we've learned about him is that his dad is in the Navy and they haven't spoken in 7 years and he has a younger sister and a grandmother, that he crashed his car when he was 16, and that he graduated from MIT. We've learned nothing about his mother, or anything about his life before NCIS, as we have with practically every other character in the show.
I think if the writers of NCIS started to include more about McGee, the view rating may start to rise again, because, really, who isn't interested in learning about McGee's past?

I would like to learn a bit more about McGee. I love sweet McGee. I have enjoyed all the epsiodes so far about the characters, but i do feel there has been too many in the one season. I believe fans watched this show because, more so of the type of characters who they are, and the storylines. I feel too much character has crept into it and thats why the ratings have dropped. It is just my opinion that its gotten a bit too far away from the storylines that once dominated the episodes. Fans have said to me, well there is no mystery anymore about the characters, and it has spoilt it a bit to find out so much. Once we find out McGees background, and about Abbys adoption and how Ducky first meet Gibbs etc. I hope they drop all the personal character history and move onto to good storylines. 1  out of 1 found this valuable.
