I am a fan of the show and at least 12 rules have been mentioned ChAoTiCpInOy. :)

Gibbs is a badass and I love the Tony/McGee/Ziva interactions.

Tony's deal with Jeanne was one of the more interesting relationships I've seen on a TV show.

the writing on ncis is far more entertaining than svu which has to fall back on its leads family drama at times which i really don't give a sh*t about.

Gibbs has rules that he enforces in everyone in his team. They are:

Rule #1: Never let suspects stay together.

Rule #1: Never screw over your partner.

Rule #2: Always wear gloves at a crime scene.

Rule #3: Don't believe what you're told. Double check.

Rule #3: Never be unreachable.

Rule #4: The best way to keep a secret? Keep it to yourself. Second best? Tell one other person - if you must. There is no third best.

Rule #7: Always be specific when you lie.

Rule #8: Never take anything for granted.

Rule #9: Never go anywhere without a knife.

Rule #12: Never date a coworker.

Rule #13: Never, ever involve a lawyer.

Rule #15: Always work as a team.

Rule #18: It's better to seek forgiveness than ask permission.

Rule #22: Never, ever bother Gibbs in interrogation.

Rule #23: Never mess with a Marine's coffee if you want to live.

Rule #38: You take the lead if it's your case.

Another one of Gibbs' rules which is used more often than the others, but without a number, is "Never say you're sorry. It's a sign of weakness."

The unnumbered one belongs to his Boss, Mike Franks [sp?] correct?

I can't remember their specific exchange, but I recall that being mentioned at some point.
