NCIS: Los Angeles - "Blame it on Rio" (7.05) Ep. Discussion Thread (Airs Oct 19th @ 10PM)
 

thanks for the thread.
tony in LA. i think i have to watch this time.
promo looks funny. sam's expression when tony arrives and makes his first comment speaks volumes.
and we finally see a headslap again.:)

THanks for the thread! So glad this is almost here. :woot: Been waiting a long time for this :lol:

I love that headslap already :sigh: :love:

Michael and Eric were on The Talk today. :D

This video loops for some reason. It's only 9:25 long, but it starts again in the middle of part of the interview after that. Also, it contains a little spoiler at the end for NCIS. So if you don't want to hear it, then make sure you quit watching at 8:40 - 9:10. That's where the spoiler is. But the rest of it is just spoilers for tonight's episode with them :D

Loved this episode!!!! Loved the humor it had :lol: Deeks, Tony and Rio were hilarious! also Tony and Kensi were cute. Give it to Tony in a min he knew Kensi and Deeks are in a relationship but why he said it wouldn't work I disagree with him because it didn't work for Tony doesn't mean it will not work for Deeks and Kensi. I Hetty gonna retire in the nearby future I hope Tony will replace her I want to see more Tony in LA.

I saw the :headslap: Hetty gave Tony coming from a mile away :lol:

I really could have done without that overlong scene of Eric and Nell discussing furries... What the hell was that even?

Hahahaha, very very funny episode. :D

I died on the "You're my personal A-team, Hannibal, Murdock, Face..." "Don't say it" "I petty the fool" hahahahahaah, AWESOME MOVIE! and tv show also.

usually i don't watch LA, because i just couldn't relate to them from the start (spin-off ep) and last sunday i watched an ep from the previous season and it is still the same.
but i had to watch yesterday because tony was in it and i liked the ep.
the whole ep was funny and i liked deeks and dinozzo together. i would like to see some more of them, but the rest still didn't get to me - :embarrassment::embarrassment::embarrassment:



and thanks for "the talk" as well. michael and eric are a good team.
i can easily imagine how they did their (non-scripted) work.:)

Tony was a great guest star; though can't really understand the reason why he would have to be on the the other side of the country to get the criminal. However Tony's complete misunderstandings of the OPS team and LA itself were probably some of my favorite parts of the episode.

Another favorite scene for me was Eric and Nell's scene. His reaction to her wench costume was great.

OMG! I loved this ep so much!!!!!! Nice little light ep after so many heavy ones.

I WANT RIO AND TONY BACK!!!!!!! Seriously! Rio has got to be my one and only favorite criminal now! :lmao:

Oh and Deeks and Tony.........my life is complete now. I agree with the women on the Talk....there needs to be a spin off and they can call it D-N-D. But they would have to bring Kensi and Ziva on every once in a while. ;)

It was nice to see that Callen and Sam's treatment of Deeks isn't just because of who he is.....they treat everyone like that. But, having them talk about what stories to tell Deeks........that right there shows that he is one of them. I hope that his relationship with everyone holds when we get to the much anticipated ep in the next few weeks!!!!

I was kind of mad at Tony for saying that about Deeks and Kensi though.....

OH! and did anyone else wish that either Gibbs, McGee or Abby would have popped up on the screen during the briefing and started giving Tony a piece of their minds....or all three!:lol: I would have LOVED to see the NCIS LA team's reactions!!!!

I knew there was stuff I missed with while writing this. The whole stuff with Deeks/Kensi and Tony/Deeks talk.... yes. agreed with what has been said about that already!


So, this was an awesome episode. Didn't disappoint. At all. This is going to be long since there was so much goodness in this episode :D

:lol: at Eric and Kensi training... and her comment about Deeks getting ready. :rotfl: Sam wanting to play wack - a - Beal and Eric running off.

Omg. :lol: Deeks. Kensi and Sam mocking him was so funny.

Was so glad the the IA stuff was mentioned a bit. Also for later in the episode... It was interesting the look Deeks got on his face when Tony mentioned if IA investigation landed him at NCIS...

Cute Hetty and Nell scene when Nell was getting fit for that dress. It sounds like Eric and Nell are together...

Oh, wow nice throwback with what happened with Jenny last time Tony was in LA.

:lol: Hetty and Tony talking. So funny. And the advice that Callen and Sam gave Tony before he talked to her :rotfl:

Loved the interrogation that Sam and Tony did with the lawyer and the lookalike. Tony and Sam played well off each other.

Eric and Nell flirting so much... I like it hahaha Althought that furries convo went on for a long time it seemed. Granger walking in on that was hilarious. I am so glad he has mellowed a bit.

:lmao: SAM: "it's like stupid squared" great scene with Callen and Sam in the boathouse telling their stories :lmao: hilarious.

The banter between Tony and Kensi and the little spat it caused between Densi in the car was so good. And all the nicknames DiNozzo gave Deeks :lmao: DnD had some great scenes :D

:lmao: That scene at Ops where Deeks and DiNzzo were bouncing the Knight Rider stuff off each other was amazing. Then Nell and Eric stepping in. And Kensi, Callen and Sam were so lost :lol: And Nell acting like she didn't want to be grouped with Eric, Deeks and DiNozzo... yeah I think she secretly liked that discussion

Omg Kensi answering Gibbs call like that. :rotfl: no wonder Tony got :headslap:

Rio was a trip! From when Callen and Sam found him hiding in the bathroom to through the shootout. Hilarious.

Oh man that headslap at the end. Perfect :lol:


Definitely one of my all time favorite NCIS episodes from the whole franchise.

The only thing I thought was missing, and this would be for the main show though, is that I wish there would have been some lead up, like a comment or something either in last weeks episode or this weeks, to Tony going to LA for Rio.

I want to watch this episode so badly & that's just from the promo & scrolling through your responses Now that would have been good. It would tie in & tell fans to go watch the other show to see Tony in it

I KNOW! I was waiting for it to come up last night or something. consistency isn't a thing in either show I guess. :rolleyes:

I hope you get to watch it soon Chelle. I just loved it. :lol:

Yes, something, anything would have been nice! You are right though MG, consistency isn't the best on the shows :pout:

To add to what was said - I don't know about the US but there wasn't even a promo that I've seen for LA. I missed last week's ep so don't know if it was shown after that ep but every ad for an NCIS I've seen lately has been for the original & it just says it is followed by a new NCIS LA. There was no ads during NCIS to say Tony was going to be in this LA ep to encourage people to watch. I think that's just as bad as not tying it in by mentioning it in the NCIS ep that he was going. I can't remember there being promos for future eps for LA for earlier eps in this season so I really think the channel here is stupid & needs to start promoting LA better in general. Anyway, rant over, now going to watch the episode :lol:


The start of this episode :lmao:. Love all of the interactions while training. But then how they introduced Tony into the episode "Hello, anybody home? Do I need a secret password or something?" :lol:

"So this is the secret lair of the west coast avengers" Trust Tony to say that before introducing himself

Tony hasn't been back to LA since Jenny died? Interesting...

Deeks seems so suspicious of Tony. Kensi being so nice to him didn't help I'm sure :lol:

"He's been talking backwards all morning. I'm pretty sure it's a software issue." Love that from Nell about Eric

Nice interactions between Deeks & Tony while Kensi waits in the car

Sam does origami? I now have a new found love for him for that fact

I wonder if Gibbs could recognise Kensi's voice when she answered Tony's phone

Rio :lol: I don't think there's every been a more amusing criminal in these shows

Forgot about the head slap :lol: Nice way to end things (& the "now get out of my town" you hear Hetty say). The head slap doesn't entirely fit though as Gibbs hasn't been giving them out lately but I guess he would be getting quite annoyed with Tony by now
