‘NCIS’ season 11 spoilers: Strange times ahead for Michael Weatherly’s Tony
Do you like “NCIS” when the stories revolve in some ways around Tony and McGee? We hope so, since that is what you are going to get over the course of more than one episode coming up the rest of this fall.
The episode that we are here to specifically to talk about today is the November 12 one entitled “Alibi,” which does help to at least raise on interesting question: How in the world has there not been an episode entitled “Alibi” over the course of the past 200+ already? This seems perfect for the show, and the overall mystery feels like something that could have been on during any of the previous seasons of the show over the years.
Do you want to read more? Then just take a look at the full synopsis below:
“The NCIS team is forced to re-examine a hit-and-run murder case when a former FBI agent turned lawyer confides in Gibbs that her client’s confidential alibi is solid. Meanwhile, McGee grows suspicious of Tony’s strange behavior.”
For all of you Bishop-watchers out there, this is still not the first episode to feature Emily Wickersham in the role. Her time will come, and from there you will be able to judge whether or not she is fully capable of being a good addition to the family. CBS still has not announced what her long-term intentions are regarding her becoming a series regular and sticking around, which either means that they still want to film some more footage, or that are waiting for some viewer reaction to lend a helping hand with their decision. Either way, this is one of the bigger events to look forward to seeing on the show.
In going back to Tony, there are all sorts of things that could be going on with Michael Weatherly’s character. He could be dealing with a mysterious case, or he could just be missing Ziva. Given that the show bosses have already said that she is not going to suddenly fade from memory on the show, really anything is possible when it comes to a plot point.

I will guarantee that it will come out that she is pregnant (as a character) and they decided she should raise the child in Israel where they are safe. After all, Michael Weatherly, in an interview recently, quipped that it was about time for “some little DiNozzos.”

While I am excited about the possibility of some dramatic focus on Tony, I’m completely sick of the mourning of Ziva. I found her character rather nasty, obnoxious, unrealistic, smug, and insensitive and cruel with Tony. Enough with the shots of the empty desk and angst filled looks. They made Tony’s character revolve around pumping up Ziva’s for the last 5 seasons. Can’t they stop and let him have his own stories now that she’s gone? I want to see the enormously talented Michael Weatherly’s Tony have some drama that doesn’t revolve around this abusive, abrasive character.

I agree to a point Lloyd. But its only been a few episodes since she left, 3 or 4, and i only really see Tony being affected by it, which is natural as he was the one who had more feelings for her than anyone else, even Gibbs. I think its different when someone dies, you tend to keep it more to yourself than when someone treasured just leaves the nest. They are still around to talk about with hope in the back of your mind that they will return. I didn’t see that any of them really felt the same about the others who have passed. There wasn’t that same rapport. I don’t see them moping. Remembering someone from time to time is not moping. They do their jobs well and they still live their lives.

Personally, I think it’s a little odd to have all the characters spending half the season “mourning” a character who is still alive and well and simply decided to quit her job, especially in light of all the characters on the show who have actually died and then given from 5 minutes to one episode of mourning and then rarely (or never) mentioned again. Ziva quit her job. She and Tony were not in a relationship. It’s not as if they were lovers or married for years and she was tragically murdered. These characters are professionals and not the type to sit around moping for a year because of a team mate’s career change.
