How Long Will E.J. Stay at NCIS?
Sarah Jane Morris' E.J. Barrett, who caused quit a stir this spring, will return for the NCIS Season 9 premiere. Will she stick around the agency beyond September 22?
"There's a new wrinkle in [Tony and E.J.'s] relationship, and I would say it is somewhat troubling," says Michael Weatherly (Tony), in an interview with TV Guide.
"I think Tony questions a lot of things about her," the actors says. "And I don't think there's any going back to their initial blinky-blinky, lovey-dovey plot."
That doesn't necessarily guarantee major Tony-Ziva developments, though.
"Tony ultimately has to lean on himself. He has to figure some of his own stuff out," Weatherly says, adding, in open-ended fashion, that this "might make him more able down the road to approach a relationship with Ziva."

Seeing as hoe Ej took the microchip and did not turn it in until Tony confronted her and she was caught by the ever so professional Ducky which we all knew Ducky would find out! She did not tell Tony that she was sec-nav niece and that is why she thought she could do what the hell she wanted.And if she was shot at the end I assume she was wearing a vest like Tony regardless she left Tony in the alley way and disappeared.Ziva would not have left him behind.Ziva did not rape anyone-Do you know what the word means?Saying rude words does not make your point.Ziva did not date a serial killer she was undercover as Gina and Gibbs and Mcgee was following her.She did sleep with Michael Locke and he was not guilty it was Tony who kept on tormenting her about it and when she gave them her gun to check and it said he was innocent Gibbs made Tony call and tell Ziva and tell her he was wrong!

I don't know why, but I seriously dislike the character E.J. I hope she doesn't come back.

why not IZiva like Icarly since what happen to Icarly is what going to happen to NICS when Ziva and Tony become a iteam

Wonder if we should come up with a cute new nickname for Ziva from when she bedded a suspected serial killer, since Ej (who actually liked Tony) is being called nasty names for having relations. Any suggestions?

I for one will be glad when the shower tramp hits the road!Her character sucked.Tony character when he did that scouring around for a piece of ass in the shower at work!! That is real professional and who would take this fratboy seriously.No wonder his popularity dropped to number 7. Now they are going to rewrite his character to make us think we been reading him wrong for 8 years.Give me a breaK.I used to like Tony and Ziva together. When he broke rule 12 with Ej which by the way was his superior. There will be no going back for Tony and Ziva now.If he and EJ don't work he will never date another NCIS agent!So they can double talk all they want it will not happen.I say when the show comes back I hope Ziva has a husband!Really would like to see (Aussie) Paul Leyden. They would be awesome together!Enrique Muricano has another show coming out so Ray probably would not be marrying type.I am wondering who the lady is that Ziva begins to see as a mother figure? Wondering if it is Ray mother
