Probably because NCIS content is exclusive to Paramount Plus
Hardly exclusive if itâs being broadcast on 10?
Also didnât stop them from making other P+ original series they teased on broadcast available on 10 play for catch up, even if it was just 1 episode.
As I said, probably looking into it too much but just an observation.

Which is great but nobody watches Ten on Saturdays. They should have given it more than a weekâs promotion.

Just watched the third episode. Itâs getting less cringey and slightly better in terms of the acting etc.

Watching it now, still too many âaUsSiEâ things (over the top nicknames and slang use that no one in Sydney would be using) for me.

Iâd agree. But better than episode 1 which was a train wreck.

The cases so far have just been a bit weird for me. Like thereâs no point to it, like they just write it as they go and then realise âshit weâve got three minutes leftâ and they have to find an ending. Whereas with the original (I know its bad to compare) they had the season planned out roughly while writing.

I was thinking of this the other day, but Australia comparatively is such a small nation compared to the states.
How can there be so many incidents causing death with relation to particularly US navy personnel? Theyâll have wiped out the whole lot of them soon enough.
You already have to watch with a fairly creative imagination, I just canât see how it can be sustained long term.
I am enjoying the show however.

Yeah you canât think too hard about thatâŚMt Thomas being a hot bed of crime for a small country town on Blue Heelers etc

And for example how is the police force in Midsomer so good at solving but not preventing the multitudes of murders.
I get it itâs just a show but when itâs almost cartoonish it does get a bit more not-ignorable, although I have just been watching those glory years of NCIS from S1 to 10 so that standard I guess is on my mind.
Iâve been all over country Vic over the past three decades and Iâm still yet to cross paths with Mt Thomas, St Davids and Widgeree, nor Chris for a cold one

My guess is that the original American series would really be pushing it way past reality for the amount of murders committed there. Probably nowhere near as many actually happening over there either.

Undoubtedly, I think itâs just a bit different watching it in your own backyard and if it was say Australians. Given its US personnel stationed in Australia there could really only be so many, and that many casualties would really start ringing alarm bells 
. But I digress, I enjoy the show for what it is.

There is still a lot of scope for plots outside of murders. The seeds for future plots seemed to have been laid in the early episodes such as espionage and terrorism as well as the Us- Australian relationship.

It will be interesting to see where they go with all of it. Will watch every episode as I have with DC and NOLA, feel a bit like I do with Hawaiâi with this one, couldnât really get into that one too much so have only watched a few episodes here and there (just enough to know whatâs roughly going on from a series perspective), really only watching this one because 1) thereâs no new episodes of DC and 2) itâs Aussie.
Is this episode 1 again?
