NCIS LA


Love the show, fun to watch, lots of eye candy, and some of it is funny, especially some of "Hetty's" lines. Unfortunately I was irritated watching the show when one of the rate/ranks was wrong. I have never met a hospital corpsman that was an Ensign because hospital corpsman are enlisted and Ensign is an officer rank. Shane Brennan, the writer is Australian, but he's an hour from a massive county that is basically one big military base and I know there have to be military medical clinics in LA county so the sloppiness bugs me. He did a show in Australia about military medical stuff, I wonder if he got it right there?

The Aussie invasion of Hollywood is mostly fun, but when they write in English/Aussie/Afrikaner idioms for American characters and they get other shit wrong it's discordant and it bothers me. If I hear the "Deeks" character, who was raised in LA, use the phrase "early days" I'll be disgusted.

PS Clarie Forlani is easy to detest. Another Brit who sucks ass at American accents, knows it and also knows just how revoltingly fake that overabundance of"sex appeal" is. Bitch makes my skin crawl, and not many women do,
