People Need To Learn How To Complain January 24, 2008 This is a great show. I just wish that the rating for it wasn't full of people complaining about the unbox service. I for one have not had any problems with the service but then I know what I am doing. By the way Abby is the best character ever on any show.
Great show, aggrevating format September 29, 2007 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I *love* NCIS. This is the only show on TV that I actually make an effort to watch. Having said that... the Unbox format is like communism: good in theory; falls apart in practice. I just went through a whole lot of effort to download the Unbox program, install it, register and begin downloading the files. It takes over an hour to download one episode using a DSL wifi connection. The program says "ready to watch in 33 minutes" but after those 33 minutes, it still has another half hour or more to download.... and if you actually try to WATCH it when it says it is "ready to watch," you just end up with garbled audio and video that looks like you ate some bad mushrooms. After I patiently wait for the hour to download the first of two episodes that I just bought, it begins downloading the second episode - no choice in doing so, and no "pause" option, merely a "cancel download" option. Unfortunately, this means the already downloaded episode continues to be worthless in terms of viewing pleasure. In fact, even after all the episodes have been downloaded, I am *still* unable to watch the episodes with appropriate sound and video quality (and I have a 64 bit processor, 1gig RAM and minimized running programs). I love NCIS and I love the idea of downloading individual episodes.... but since the idea behind Unbox seems to be immediate gratification, they desperately need to make some changes to this format in order for it to live up to that promise.
Really good stories June 12, 2007 I thought this series (Season 2) was well-written and well-acted. If you buy the episodes as I did, watch #22 last.
My Favorite Episode March 19, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I don't have television, haven't for 11 years. When I learned CBS was allowing free viewing over the internet I checked it out and started watching episodes of CSI, CSI NY, CSI Miami, and NCIS. I found NCIS to be my favorite and this particular show Dead And Unburied is my favorite so far. I enjoy the light-heartedness of NCIS. So I decided to download this episode from Amazon Unbox.
I really wish Amazon Unbox would allow me to burn shows I've purchased. As it is they are restricted to viewing on my computer. When Unbox expands this service to allow me to burn DVDs I will likely purchase many more shows this way. I like selecting individual shows.
AMAZON SUCKS March 18, 2007 2 out of 6 found this review helpful
I live in the UK and Amazon doesn't allow me to download ANY off the NCIS shows. This service should be open to all amazon users......!!!!!!!
