Leon Vance/Rocky Carroll Appreciation Thread #1: Because like a Transformer, he's more than meets the eye
Welcome to the 1st Leon Vance/Rocky Carroll Appreciation Thread! x Leon Vance is the Director of NCIS and is played by Rocky Carroll. He first appeared in the show in the 14th episode of season 5 ("Internal Affairs") when the NCIS team is investigated by the FBI in relation to the death of La Grenouille (aka The Frog). At this time he was the Assistant NCIS Director, although during the episode he temporarily became the acting Director as he had to ask Director Jenny Shepard to step down during the investigation and would remain in this position for the following episode while she took personal leave. He would then reappear at the end of the season after Director Shepard dies, becoming her replacement as the NCIS Director. x Rocky Carroll's as a director... Episodes he's directed: of NCIS... - 12x13 "We Build, We Fight" (2015) - 13x06 "Viral" (2015) - 13x13 "Déjà Vu" (2016) - 14x12 "Off the Grid" (2017) - 15x04 "Skeleton Crew" (2017) - 15x13 "Family Ties" (2018) - 15x18 "Death From Above" (2018) - 16x06 "Beneath the Surface" (2018) - 16x12 "The Last Link" (2019) - 16x17 "Silent Service" (2019) - 17x07 "No Vacancy" (2019) - 17x11 "In the Wind" (2020) - 17x19 "Blarney" (2020) of Magnum P.I.... - 2x19 "May the Best One Win" (2020) "Bear in mind, Gibbs, when the world is watching, 'No comment' can only play for so long!"

That's where I can make a difference. It's where I still can." ____________________________ Original post: Yay, I got to start a thread on the best NCIS director yet! Is it the toothpick? The Ali photo in his office? The fact that we don't know what he's hiding? Whatever it is, I love Leon. Who else does? __________________

I like Vance, I don't understand why everyone is so horribly suspicous of him, I don't believe he is doing anything bad behind the scenes. ^_^ I can't wait to see where his character goes.

Finally, another Vance fan! I don't think he's bad, though he does seem a bit shady. I still think he's a very interesting character, though. In fact, that's what makes him so interesting!

I like Vance too. I'll admit I'm one of the few who are suspicious about him, but it only makes me like him more.

I'm sure we'll find out, eventually. I think the writers said that in an interview, but I can't remember exactly what they said.

Awesome. That is one thing I really love about this show is that they tend to keep their storylines consistant with past storylines and eps.

I wonder if it has something to do with Ziva's family.

^^ That was what I was originally thinking those papers had to do with... the boxer and the eye thing. But that is a good guess that maybe it has to do with Ziva's family.
So many questions... hopefully we get the answers next season. __________________

I really didn't like Vance at the end of last season and for most of it before that, he seemed, seedy, skeevy, even. But after tonight's episode (i'm only 10 minutes in) and I swear this is none spoilery, I have a new respect for him and can see where his hard-assyness is coming from.
