Bones vs NCIS
Bones and NCIS are both television shows that deal with solving murders. These shows are very similar in several aspects. Both shows have a team of professionals who work for some government agency to solve murders. The team in NCIS solves murders for the Navy and the team in Bones solves murders for the FBI. Both teams are excellent at what they do and always get their man or woman. The teams, also, are like a close knit family. In both shows everyone helps each other through life's problems. They even have two characters that are similar in each show.
Zach Addy is an assistant to Dr. Brennan in Bones. He is a geeky lab tech who is learning from Dr. Brennan how to tell how someone died by looking at their bones. He is picked on and blamed for everything that goes wrong in the lab by Hodgins, another lab tech. Zach is very similar to McGee, who is the geeky member of the team from NCIS. McGee is a computer geek who is constantly picked on by Tony, the street smart member of the team. Both Zack and McGee are the geeky younger comic relief on their shows.
Both shows contain a comic aspect to them. They also have character plots that their rival shows don't.

I was a die-hard JAG fan. When it ended, I was saddened and unsure which show would take JAG's place in my heart.I love NCIS because it is a very "figure it out" show with out all the blood and gore of CSI. Plus, I love almost anything present day military, so NCIS is right up my alley.
