Competence as a comfort. Fine once in a while. A poor every-night.

The review
A great many houses came home and let this squad close a case before bed. The appeal is not a mystery. Someone competent cares, the gallows humor means they have seen it before, and the world is back in order by the credits. Order is a gift when it is true.
Every night, it teaches that a dead person is the start of a puzzle you are entitled to enjoy. Watch an episode when you are actually tired and need a closed door. Do not let it be the door you live behind.
Journal
Keep NCIS in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 43. Yours can differ.
The glance
Piety and Temperance and Truth and Stewardship are the thin ones.
Can conscience actually stop someone, or is reverence only in the shot so it can be mocked?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Law & Order
55 instead of 43
Law & Order is still a crime show, and it scores 55 instead of 43. What you gain is republic: A court is the institution.
The eight
- 6Industry
They do procedures, interviews, a lab. The job looks like a job.
- 5Household
Gibbs runs the squad like a stern father. It is a workplace, not a home, and it pretends a little.
- 2Piety
Funerals are plot. The show does not know what it thinks a soul is.
- 5Courage
They walk toward the case.
- 5Republic
A service, a chain of command, a victim who had a rank or a family.
- 4Temperance
The corpse is furniture. The tone is a joke over the drawer.
- 4Truth
It tells a clean story, which is not the same as the true mess of a death.
- 3Stewardship
What it hands the evening is reassurance that the capable people have this.
