*Warning - two small plot spoiler's for anyone who has not seen the show.
Although the writing is somewhat predictable, the actors do a good job of making it work. There have been some surprises during the first nine years. These include Harm finding a brother he never knew, and certain romances that were unexpected. Some romances that were expected have not happened. One big surprise was Lt. Bud Roberts getting injured and almost dying in Afghanistan and how everyone has dealt with that.
The show does a good job of using locations to include aircraft carriers and other Navy ships and Navy aircraft. Also does a fair job of showing the JAG lawyers interacting with other government agencies and officials.
The character development has been good enough to deliver a spin-off, Navy NCIS, (although you could predict at the end of the episodes that initiated this that a spin-off was coming) that is holding it's own as well.
Over all a good show that could use some fresh writing but the characters make it work. Just waiting for it to come out on DVD.
