When Cote de Pablo speaks on DVD extras, I can JUST detect a foreign accent. When Ziva speaks I have to say I can't. I'm talking about intonation. Language music. Of course she makes great jokey mistakes. And she's a general genius - a mistress lock-picker, a martial arts invincible, a spy wizard, a crack shot, a multi-multi-linguist of course. But how, where, did she learn her sound of English (I mean American of course)? Could we have a hint of back-story (suggestion) about this? Or have I missed something? If I have, could someone please tell me when or what?

You finish the sentence.
This sort of grew out of a conversation I was having with a friend. I'm a Ziva fan, despite the recent "speed bumps" on the show, if you will. She started talking about why she hated Ziva, and how she was an very unrealistic Mary Sue character (much more so than Abby, who you know is deiberatey exaggerated for TV) ruining the integrity and dynamic of the show, and Tiva was a contrived relationship that was gonna be the last nail in the coffin for NCIS. She's not entiely alone in thinking that either, I'd imagine. So, of course, I'm taking it to the boards. I'm curious as to why people may not enjoy Ziva's character, or find her damaging to the team dynamic. Yeah, i can think of a few moments in late S6 I wasn't realy feeling it, but in S7, that's being cleaned up. I don't meant this at all to be a bashing thread for either Ziva or Cote, SO PLEASE DON'T TURN IT INTO ONE. I just want to read why people are off the Ziva bandwagon when I always thought she was a wildy popuar character (ahem, that may just be my fan-ness talking). I'm looking forward to the comments. =)

The team goes to Haifa, Israel, where a U.S. battleship is docked, to investigate a killing and there is friction with Israeli police and NCIS.

Ok, first don't get me wrong - I really like Ziva.
But sometimes I am wondering, how is it possible that women in late twenties can: fight like a man, speaks about 8 languages, is a professional killer, plays piano, is an excellent cook, lost her sister when she was 16, shoted her brother, is a good singer, has a photograph memory, is a human lie detector and can outwit the lie detector, ... aso. I am really asking myself - how is posible to have a wild life like this...

It's 100% hispanic; not even close to Hebrew. Too bad.
There are a million actors who would be a better pick - any actor with a better ear for accents. Or send her to Tel Aviv for six months. Or don't give her any lines.

At the start of Season 6, the opening shot is Ziva in a nightclub, in a slinky dress, SINGING! What was your first reaction? Was it "NO! She's lost her job and has been forced to work as a slinky nightclub singer to support herself!", as mine was? Or was it "Wow... she's a really good singer..."? Or did you see through the nightclub act, and think "She has to be undercover. No way she dress like that on purpose"? Post reactions here!

Ok earlier in this page it is mentioned that Ziva talked with her aunt Nettie "despite her aunt nettie living Tel Aviv." In Israel their written language is Hebrew (Jewish religion) but their spoken language is English mind you it isn't the english we are used to we could understand it. It isn't that strange at all that her aunt nettie SPOKE english.

I know I used to love playing The Sims but I just came across "skins" (anyone familiar with The Sims knows what it means) for The Sims 2 for Ziva, Jenny and Abby! It may make me go out and buy the game!!!

Does the rest of the team (besides Gibbs, obviously) know that Ziva was Ari's control officer? In Shalom, Sacks told Dinozzo that "her brother was a Hamas terrorist" and abby says "everyone is saying she's just like her brother" but that was really all the clarification I found...which just means they knew they were brother/sister, not that she was essential in helping Ari to infiltrate headquarters and shoot Gerald in autopsy. Just to clarify, they also don't know that she shot Ari either, right?
