Ziva David was and still is a huge part of the show. she was a strong independent feisty. we need her back. its not going to be the same without her. she besides tony and gibbs made that show. All of us NCIS fans want is ziva to return come back to where she belongs we love Cote de Pablo its not the same without her. here are what some of the fans posted on different sites Gayle: I love the character of Ziva - a strong, independent, caring and compassionate woman. That being said, very few people who leave a number one TV show have a worthwhile career in the aftermath. I hope and pray that eventually she and the producers of the show come to their senses and bring her back Carroll:I will miss her character and her wonderful acting. She was incredible and a huge loss for NCIS and CBS. At this point I am not sure the show will have the same interest to me. From her comments to TV Guide I am assuming that CBS dragged their feet and she never intended to leave. That is extremely disappointing.
