I also watched NCIS “reef madness“
Hot on the heels of last weeks worst show of the series is a mundane entry.
There’s this ship that they’re going to sink to make a reef, but it’s still
docked and already full of the explosives which seems unlikely.

Agreed. Leaving that semtex sitting around on the ship is just asking
for someone to steal it.

When Knight
and Parker get trapped on it and even though it’s a crime scene they’re
still investigating it’s gonna get blown up the next morning. So Knight
gets killed trying to save Parker and Parker dies, trying to save Knight
while dreaming of angels of his mother and sister and his secret backstory
about why he hates boats (did we ever actually hear this before?) And he
apparently managed to get his sister killed. Both of them get better though
just in time for that bitch Knight to announce she’s taking a job in
California in front of her boyfriend who she hasn’t bothered to tell yet.
Vance thinks she’s perfect to train the rescue squads even though she not
only completely failed to rescue Parker she got herself killed in the
process.

Ah, but she was willing to take the risk to save Parker and risk
takers are what he wants. As for Knight, either she's got a gig that
will tie her up for some time next season or she will be back before
the mid point.

 Ian’s IMDb bio on her says she has three things coming up
 WEREWOLVES
 Two scientists try to stop a mutation that turns people into werewolves
after being touched by a super-moon the year before.
 And it’s just full of people ending their careers
Frank Grillo
Lou diamond Phillips
Todd Bridges (!)
And a cast of people you’ve never heard of with names you couldn’t possibly
pronounce. Many of which are attractive women though.

Amazingly, this isn't from The Asylum!

ALIVE
 It centers on a San Francisco homicide detective who's mysteriously brought
back to life after being killed in the line of duty.
 A.k.a. Frankenstein.
 Filmed in Canadia and San Francisco
 With a cast of people I’ve never heard of

For some reason, IMDb has been persistently incompetent about TV pilots, never giving them their own "category" on IMDb. This was a CBS TV pilot, from 2020. So you will never see it.

Steven's Pass
 Nobody knows anything about it

Can only see this on IMDb Pro. Regular IMDb lists it in a separate box under "In Development". I would give this about zero odds of ever making it into production.
