Last season's finale left NCIS fans with three big bomb shells as Tony (Michael Weatherly) was reassigned to the nuclear-powered supercarrier USS Ronald Reagan, Ziva (Cote de Pablo) was ordered back to Mossad and Tim (Sean Murray) to the cybercrimes unit. Naturally, viewers were left to speculate whether the police drama will reshuffle Gibbs' (Mark Harmon) team.
While we already established that NCIS won't pull another House shake-up, we can still expect some interesting storylines as three new recruits join the police procedural drama.
Warning: Spoilers ahead.

If not for NBC's America's Got Talent, mere reruns of CBS's NCIS would have ran away with the ratings plum on its Tuesday slate, with 8.8 million viewers, some 1.5 million more than a special clip-show edition of ABC's Wipeout. However, it looks like the NBC show has got a stranglehold on the top spot, with 12.4 million viewers, more than 3 million ahead of NCIS.
As previously reported, much attention has put NCIS's Pauley Perrette after the controversial string of videos that her deranged hubby Coyote Shivers put out in YouTube. Basically, Perrette accused the rocker of harassing her and raping and sodomizing another girl. Shivers countered on the said YouTube videos that all the allegations are part of a grand scheme to discredit him, throw him in jail because she wasn't able to get the arrangement she wanted after the bitter divorce proceedings.

Previously we reported that NCIS star Pauley Perrette's ex, indie rocker Coyote Shivers has countered her rape and abuse allegations through YouTube videos. In his rather lengthy defense, Shivers mentioned that Perrette, who plays the funky goth forensic examiner on the Emmy-nominated CBS series, is using her “status as an actress in a primetime television show” to elicit response.
“What Pauley Perrette does not want you to know is that she hired that girl, and paid her to make those claims so she can try and throw me in jail,” Shivers near-whispered, in reference to Angela Garber, the other woman claiming that Shivers raped and sodomized her.
