Watchseries; The Pilot had a rushed feel to it, a plot with little 'story.' Contrast that with the first episode of NCIS, where the focus remained on Gibbs and one other character, a SS Agent about to join Gibbs' team. A person new to a storyline needs direction so they can find someone to identify with, and this first episode lacked that focal point. Too many character introductions, with ancillary characters attached to secondary ones, attached to . . . We need more than a recycled opening of a Jack Ryan story, and the typical token PC correct players Hollywood now thinks they must add to every show. Inclusion is a good thing, but not when that's getting jammed down our throats with every new entry in prime time TV. Can we have a normal mix of players that reflects reality, please? We don't need a same-sex relationship in every show we watch. We do need some genuine chemistry between characters, and you don't get that from wooden acting or dialogue that lacks any hint of spark.

NCIS: Hawai'i watchseries. WEll I was looking forward to this until this show looked like Dec 8th 1941. If you don't understand the reference it was a total BOMB. Poor storyline, really bad acting, looks more like a bunch of teenage wannabe Nancy Drew's and Hardy boys. The Bowery Boy would have been much better than this.

So very disappointing. Will NOT be watching again. I could not make it to the end - it was too painful. Story line was ridiculous & the acting was poor. Again, it was so disappointing.

This show was boring. Very disappointed. Even with the minority lead this show will not last. I miss Hawaii 5-0. At least Magnum PI is coming back.

The pilot was pretty dissaspointing, all of the characters felt like poorly written, generic stereotypes. The shooting style and color grading was also almost unwatchable and ugly. A few scenes were obviously shot in front of a green screen and were super oversaturated. NCIS: New Orleans was far from perfect, but replacing it with this is insane.

I can't believe they cancelled NCIS NOLA for this utter GARBAGE!! A terrible show; bad plots, bad acting, & a total waste of one hour! Even GIBBS & his team couldn't save this pathetic show.
