What You Need to Know for Tomorrow: NCIS and Glee

SPOILERS: Below the READ MORE line for NCIS and Glee

If you aren't psyched up enough for tonight, here's another two more shows to get pumped up about for tomorrow! (Once again, photos courtesy of official websites)


Where/When: CBS, Tuesdays, 8 p.m.
Summary: Gibbs and his team work for Naval Criminal Investigative Services, and track everything from murder to terrorism, all with the unique quirks that make them quite the dysfunctional "family."
How excited I am for this season: B
Why you should watch: It's the only serious crime procedural (yes, I'm discounting Castle) I watch weekly, mostly due to the wonderful cast of characters. And the cases are still surprising, even this many seasons in.


Where/When: Fox, Tuesdays, 8 p.m.
Summary: The glee club at McKinley High is made up a bunch of lovable misfits who sing their little hearts out as they juggle the issues of high school. Plus Sue Sylvester.
How excited I am for this season: A+
Why you should watch: The drama is deliberately absurd episode to episode, which makes the real moments much more touching and surprising. Plus, several cast members have stunning voices, and the show is starting to build an excellent guest cast of both Broadway stars and brilliant actors.

What you need to know in order to watch...

NCIS [Pic of some of the team to the right]
  • Gibbs is finally getting in trouble for hunting down and sniping the man who murdered his first wife and daughter
  • Abby knows the truth, the others don't 
  • Gibbs is being threatened by the drug cartel boss of the guy he killed - who also happens to be the guy's daughter 
  • These threats extend to his loved ones which is why -
  • Frank's is missing and took some guys out with him
  • Gibbs' father is unaccounted for, and possibly in some deep trouble. Course, it is Papa Gibbs.
Glee 
Oh, where to begin...
  • Rachel and Finn are finally together
  • Quinn gave up the baby for adoption and Shelby (Vocal Adrenaline coach) adopted her [above]
  • Puck likes Quinn...and has a history with Santana...and Rachel
  • The group didn't win Regionals, but they get to last one more year thanks to Sue of all people
  • Emma is dating her dentist, not Mr. Schu...and he's not so happy about that
Of course, there's many more complexities to Glee than that. I recommend a recap video Hulu has on Glee relationships but I won't post the link because it expires tomorrow. This is just the end result of the season finale.
