150 Episodes and Going Strong

Tonight, NCIS hits a true milestone as the show broadcasts its 150th episode. Think about it: most shows, NCIS included, produce a typical 22 or 23 episodes per season. So it takes about 7 years on the air to get to this point -- and by then, most shows are in decline. But what's so amazing about this CBS ratings powerhouse, now part of a new CBS killer Tuesday night lineup, is that NCIS just keeps on growing.

In tonight's episode, called "Flesh and Blood," an assassination attempt on a foreign prince hits too close to home for DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) when his father (none other than venerable TV star Robert Wagner!) is linked to the case. Check it out tonight (Tues., Jan 12) at 8 PM Eastern/Pacific on CBS.
