* ArtisticLicenseLaw: Every perp caught at the end of an episode, whether it be on the field or in the interrogation room, is treated as caught with a finality. However, unless an episode makes a rare exception to confront the matter, ''many'' of these criminals are nailed with rather flimsy justifications; numerous confessions are coerced or produced in pressured circumstances without any lawyer present, most gun-toting baddies are killed in self-defense with no further investigation into the matter, and NCIS regularly brushes off use of force until it's time for an individual agent's drama. [[CowboyCop Gibbs in particular]] would likely be even more of a nightmare for the agency than the series already makes him out to be.

A bulletproof vest hit still has the NCIS agents reeling on the ground gasping in pain, typically putting them out of the fight or severely inhibiting them if they get back up; if our heroes take a shot directly, they're ''down'', and likely fighting weakly to avoid bleeding out or being finished off.

The show is a spinoff of ''Series/{{JAG}}'' (1995-2005), which in addition to the parent series’ military theme and occasional SpyDrama also leaped on the ForensicDrama bandwagon started by ''Series/{{CSI}}''. NCIS stands for "Naval Criminal Investigative Service"; like ''JAG'', it is based on a real organization within the Department of the Navy, and also much less action-packed in real life than the Hollywood-style fictionalized version the show depicts. The organization is the criminal investigative arm of the Navy and Marines, though it is a civilian law enforcement agency, unlike the Army's CID.

''NCIS'' is an American long-running [[LongRunners long-running]] primetime television series created by Creator/DonaldPBellisario and Don [=McGill=] for Creator/{{CBS}} about Navy criminal investigators. The show is a spinoff of ''Series/{{JAG}}'' (1995-2005), which in addition to the parent series’ military theme and occasional SpyDrama also leaped on the ForensicDrama bandwagon started by ''Series/{{CSI}}''. NCIS stands for "Naval Criminal Investigative Service"; like ''JAG'', it is based on a real organization within the Department of the Navy, and also much less action-packed in real life than the Hollywood-style fictionalized version the show depicts. The organization is the criminal investigative arm of the Navy and Marines, though it is a civilian law enforcement agency, unlike the Army's CID.

* RecycledSet: Being a TV series, a lot of mileage is made out of reusable locations where they can get away with it, usually justified by most cases being in Washington and a reasonable driving distance from the NCIS offices. But one case that is a bit more blatant is that ''every'' single RV camper a perp holes up or gets murdered in seems to be the same RV model every time and thus the same layout, standing out more than the suburbs, streets and houses that can at least be worked around with props and cinematography.

* DidntThinkThisThrough: The perp in Season 4's "Suspicion" took dirty bribes to transport a pair of what they thought were just "rich kids looking to party" from Iraq to the United States, having supposedly vetted them despite the risks that the NCIS team openly retort to the perp's face. When they go to apprehend the two illegal immigrants and have to defend themselves mid-arrest, Ziva then points Gibbs to [[FailedASpotCheck a jihadist banner on the garage wall and active bombs being built.]] All of the already-arrested perp's claims fall apart showing they were OnlyInItForTheMoney rather than their false pretenses of caring for their country.

** Any lawyer in this series is obviously an obstruction to the case, barring very rare exceptions. But if they start getting personally involved, going out of their way to be at a client's case or directly obstructing the investigation as much as possible, there's usually one of two things that happen: either they're so pragmatic for their case that they're completely blind to how ObviouslyEvil their client is and get blindsided by the case, or the lawyer is in on it themselves and get arrested in the end. Given this team's track record for arrested lawyers, you'd think someone would be more cautious.

* JoinTheArmyTheySaid: The VictimOfTheWeek in one episode was an unscrupulous Marine recruiter who made promises that he knew would never be met, such as promising one recruit that he would be trained as a medic. As Gibbs points out, the Marine Corps doesn't have medics; they use Navy corpsmen.
