I've recently started watching NCIS and I've seen a few anti-cliche's in it, if there is such a thing.

The best one was three investigators enter a small cabin that was the obvious scene of a gun battle. They find a dead guy tied to a chair, then one hears a beeping sound. The most senior member looks under the bed and sees something that looks a lot like a few blocks of plastic explosive and a detonator. All three go running from the house, with the last to leave diving over the hood of the car to safely. I was in already expecting the perfectly timed escape when the screen faded slightly.

The next scene shows them all huddled behind the car, one has started whittling. The conversation is about whether there really was a bomb and if the senior member might need glasses. It blew up just as the bomb squad arrived.

She might. You never know.
