    Should be great.

  • kemcha

    Never heard of her and this is a bad idea …

    • Brian

      If you haven’t heard of her than you don’t know what a truly remarkable and wonderful actress she is.

    This would be great – I’m surprised that SB even knows who GR is – but the show is taking the great, un-awarded cast(another Emmy award show and no one even thinks of MW or any one else) and just letting it do all the work that the writers and directors and the guy who is supposed to be running the place ought to be doing.
    John Cassevates would have barfed at most of the writing this year – with the exception of the Tony stuff from the first episode ( and his megaphone/orange cone into the elevator monologue in the episode with the blackout). So why add a great actress to a season with no story arc, nothing to root for except for our affection for the characters and the actors who play them. Meh and double meh.

      Shame on you for your criticism of Gena Rowlands appearing on NCIS, I just can’t wait to see her appearance on the show no matter what.

    And another thing- stop with the indicating music already! What year is this- 1992? For example,in Power Down, I don’t need the whimsical ” doo doo , doo do do do doo do” to tell me it’s the funny part .
    That “wacky” music behind the scene in the server room & the ones after where Gibbs hands out Instamatics & other old cameras was so embarrassing!! The scenes would have been funny if SB had treated the audience like adults, and not cretinous adults.
    Watch and listen to The Shield. And go back to treating your actors & audience with respect!

    Actually it seems Shannon was visiting for the summer…she didn’t know Gibbs that well and didn’t know the boys he was fighting.

  • Scorp50

    Gibbs still has guilt and hurts enough over Shannon and Kelly without having her (Shannon’s) mother ripping him a new one. If it has to be a mother in law I hope it to one I don’t care about eitherm but I hope it isn’t Shannons mom. Oh the other hand cannot wait to learn more of his past.

    it was confirmed it was Shannon’s mother. Gibbs son is cast to play young LJG already. I can’t wait for this episode.

    Can’t wait for this episode-should be awesome!
