I was never a fan of Big Bang (gasp!) so I've given both spin-offs a pass. With this information, it will be interesting to see just how big a drop-off there is with its second episode.I enjoyed the NCIS: Origins opener. I've watched some version of NCIS since it started, though I stopped watching the original when Michael Weatherly and Pauley Perette left. If it gets the chance to settle in and grow, it could be good for several years. I would love to see how Gibbs' three wives get played, and eventually meeting Ducky and a young DiNozzo if it lasts long enough. (Who would you get to play a younger David McCallum? We never get a clear timeline on when Gibbs moved to the DC office, but Ducky would be in his early 50s when he meets Gibbs? Sound right?)
Ducky could easily be played by Jamie Bamber, but I feel it'd have to be someone relatively unknown. As for DiNozzo, not a clue!

Ratings Roundup for the Week of October 13, 2024
As a massive fan of Big Bang, and an ok fan of Young Sheldon (Altho I did quite like it), I wasn't expecting much from Georgie & Mandy & I wasn't wrong.
The laughter added to it in scenes that weren't even remotely funny absolutely ruined it for me! I'll give it a couple more episodes, but I cannot see it lasting very long, which is a shame.
Meemaw & Mary being guests in the first episode didn't help, and Missy in the next episode probably won't make much difference either :(
Om a brighter note, I did enjoy NCIS Origins. Austin Stowell seems the perfect choice for a young Gibbs!

The Daleks in Colour
It's good to see all the hard work that went into remastering this, but the new background score was way too loud at times, which made it near on impossible to hear the dialogue.
When I first joined this community of tv addicts 9 years ago, I'd never contributed anything to any other site. I didn't track what I watched, or even care that much to even want to!
I honestly have no idea why or how I found this site, as I wouldn't ever use such a thing, right?
Yeah, right!
Something just clicked inside me that made me want to start contributing.
I think it was when I went looking for old UK shows that I used to watch & because you were a relatively new site, there wasn't a whole lot to find.
Well, I couldn't have that, so I started to request more and more UK stuff to be added, and then I would fill in the missing info that I could.
Because there was so much, the staff here soon began to notice me as I took great delight in continuing to flood the site with the UK shows I used to love.
Yes, it has taken me time to climb the ranks of staff here & yes, I've been told off more than once for doing something incorrectly, lol. That's all part of the learning process!
Now, I cannot think of a reason not to continue to contribute to this wonderful site and get to know its wonderful community of fellow tv addicts.
Of course, none of this would be possible without @david & @Jan creating tv maze in the first place & I thank them both for continuing to add new features and fix little bugs we occasionally find, but it really is a global effort from everyone that contributes to this site that makes it what it is today.
We honestly, could not maintain and run the site without everyone's help & for that, I thank you ALL!
Here's to the next 10 years!
