The early seasons of this series do not play well in 2021. I am in the process of watching them from the beginning again. Our attitudes regarding sexual harassment and sexualizing female counterparts have been adjusted thanks to the #Metoo movement. DiNozzo's constant leering and Kate's simpering and ineffective responses are unbearable. I'm surprised they could deliver their lines without gagging. By the end of this arc I was relieved to see it end. Unfortunately the leering and slime did not. Showering after watching episodes is recommended!
