In her role playing former Mossad agent Ziva David on 'NCIS,' Cote De Pablo does a lot of fighting, a skill she showed off on Monday's 'The Talk' (weekdays, syndicated on CBS). De Pablo taught the panel a few moves for a convincing TV fistfight, pairing off with Julie Chen while Sharon Osbourne and Holly Robinson Peete mimicked their movements.Some of the essentials were keeping a "fighter's pose," making eye contact, and swinging so that it looks to the camera like you're making contact, but missing by enough to not accidentally smack your fight partner. Chen went a little over the top in reacting to De Pablo's punch. "It's very Cher," said De Pablo.
Not to be outdone, Peete and Osbourne went at it, and Osbourne took a fairly convincing dive to the floor. Peete hopped on top of her and continued the beating. Perhaps there's some underlying hostility on the set.
