Why is it that the NCIS writers feel compelled to give every character "father issues"? First Gibbs, then Tony and Ziva. Now McGee. I guess now all we have to look forward to is father issue episodes for Abby and Palmer.

This is the second time McGee tries to protect a family member! Is it really in Gibbs character to let him get away with it? I don't think I would be so lenient or trust McGee as he is too emotional and willing to make exceptions if its a family member involved!

I didn't watch all of it saw the last half hour of it. I will later today. I did like what I saw of it I liked I agree with the comment below this is one of the best McGee episode. I liked Penny she was good in it and she fits in.

Loved it! We finally know some things about McGee's backround. Lily Tomlin was great as his Grandma. Loved the ending, with Ducky escorting her to 'cocktails'- brought a big smile to my face. Hopefully, this relationship will be explored in another episode. I especially liked McGee standing up to Gibbs- notice Gibbs didn't jump him. I think his character was proud of 'Probie'. I've been watching this show since the beginning and look how far it's come. Keep 'em coming!

I loved this episode. The comparison of Gibbs to McGee's Dad was very interesting to me. McGee has always been pretty intimidated by Gibbs and tries really hard to please everyone. Makes sense that he had an overbearing, constantly critical Dad. Ziva, Tony and Tim all seem to need Gibbs. He has tough love at times but he does really care about all of them. He has been better to them then any of their fathers.

I loved this episode! And that's the truth (ref Tomlin's character Edith Ann from long ago). Loved how this phrase was worked into the script when Tim and Penny were talking.

i liked the ep, but i am not too interested in McGee at all. he is just boring and kind of background for me. his granny was one cool woman, she was more interesting than her grandson.
my question though is, why do i keep watching NCIS one day before. i watched it yesterday morning online, the comes out online one day before it airs.
Tony was charming as usual and Gibbs was hilarious with his stared at Jimmy, loved it!

These might be the best mcgee episode since season 2 when that woman video tape that Marine being killed, I loved it and Mcgee sticking up to gibbs without saying sorry boss was proof how far Mcgee has gone from come from season 3.
So now the question is why have him and his dad havent been talking for seven year and did anyone beside me think that the presumed-dead director of Annex was Mcgee Grandfather

I love love LOVE this episode. It's my favorite of the season so far.
I love when ever we get a McGee episode(which is not often enough in my mind) and both Sean and Lily Tomlin were amazing in this one.
I would like Penelope and Ducky's relationship to last longer, but we know from press releases that Ducky has another love interest coming up in Cheryl Ladd from the original Charlies Angels.
