Anyone following NCIS ORIGINS ?

I’ve missed an episode maybe 2 , and have been enjoying it . Just catching on to the story lines and new characters.

But also watching the old NCIS and tonite’s episode is about The Calling.
The terrorist children from Iraq ? where Jethro is shot and almost dies , etc. But interesting is that Gibbs Origin’s boss appears as a ghost in the episode , and Gibbs who almost dies from the gunshots has a dream while on the operating table where he is looking at portraits on a wall of ppl in his past , and the actor who plays young Gibbs in Origins is in a pic of young Gibbs …

I wonder how long the new series was in the works with blending of the new series in the old series.

Hope this makes sense .

So I’ve seen 4 or 5 ? The last one was really good , and I’m starting to tie some of the past of origins to the themes of the original NCIS …

But it was weird to see the pic of the origins Gibbs in the show from season 12 ( of 22 seasons) of NCIS … and his origins boss Mike , as a ghost in the old show ( different actor than Origins , but some resemblance to him) with the same attitude as the young Mike.
While watching the calling , and the ghost of Mike started appearing to rag on Gibbs , I was asking myself ‘who is this angry guy’? And about the time I guessed it was Mike they revealed him as the old boss of Gibbs.

Again , that’s some long range planning .

It was kinda sorta draggy in the first episodes but the more recent ones are not bad. Not great but not bad.
I'll still keep watching..

And Bishop had left , and Ducky gone , and Dinozo gone too , the new characters didn’t have the same spark as the old . The show is different but ok .
Apparently there’s 10 shows in this season of Origins so there’s 3 left.
Tonite at 10 pm is #8
