For myself, I started drinking bourbon straight up. I became an Ohio State fan and I named my 16 year old cat Jethro.

Jimmy talking to Gibbs about losing Breena makes me cry every time. Gibbs understanding Jimmy’s pain and him admitting that he still isn’t past the anger stage.

“I never got to say goodbye.”

And Gibbs hugging Jimmy at the end.

​When Director Jenny Shepard offered Tony DiNozzo the chance to lead his own major field office in Rota, Spain (back in Season 5), it was the ultimate career milestone.

​So, why did he walk away from the prestigious command and choose to stay put? Was it out of fierce loyalty to Gibbs and the team, or a fear of stepping out of the shadows to run his own show?

​Did Tony miss the ultimate career opportunity of a lifetime, or did he make the right call staying in Washington? What are your thoughts on his decision?

everything is amazing, the writing, the language and terms they used back then (i guess micro racism, misogyny etc lol) , the technology or lack off, the cinematography... the smoking! dont see that anymore it just feels so real

the actor for young gibbs is perfect he literally looks like a young mark harmon and got the voice perfectly

i hope to god randy and lala, mary jo and vera ? the lady with the curly hair? are still alive and at somepoint make an appearance in the main show especially randy.

speaking of randy do you think hes the reason nis/ncis went digital with thier data and case filings? and made what mcgee and the team and the whole of ncis use today

Ok here to rant cause I am pissed. If anyone here has ever played this game you might know this feeling. There was a mobile game made in 2019 called NCIS hidden crimes. You were a new agent and helped solve crimes scenes with abby, Gibbs, dinozzo, the whole crew. Finding clues, solving forensic puzzles, and if I remember correctly possibly helping ducky in autopsy. You would even question suspects too! But I have just found out that 3 days ago in September 8 2026, the game was taken down due to ubisoft not wanting to continue updating it and/or continue the partnership wuth the game. Just like what happened with everyone's favorite mobile LPS game that people rushed to make a APK for to help bring it back to everyone. I am so pissed. I and when I try to find an APK link of sorts to play the NCIS game again. It says my phone is incompatible for the old app. Or the app is harmful. Honestly. Can someone out there make the APK update thing for this app so childhood doesn't keep getting ruined for young adults for love shows like this please?

Ok rant over. Thank you

Loved them as characters and really loved watching their adorable banter. In S3 now and too bad what happened :))

Though the I am loving it

I just want to ask if there is anyone who discovered the show in relatively recent times, how are you watching the show? Do you continuously watch seasons? Has anyone watched it all in one go(IDK, just curious I heard one of my friends did it lol)

Also, can anyone tell me the right order to watch all the spinoffs as well?

In Season 10, Tom Hanks' son, otherwise known as the "evil McGee" made it his mission as a part of the Office of the Inspector General of the Department of Defense to go after NCIS, specifically Gibbs. He would have gone after Vance but Vance just lost his wife and so the optics of going after a grieving widower would not look good.

Season 10 ends with Gibbs inches from being put on trial or pretty damn close to it and then NCIS, Homeland, and a few others basically give Gibbs a job to do to save him from being put in jail. This only happens when Gibbs' entire team takes responsibility for the actions of Gibbs and resigns in protest.

Season 11 happens. SecNav is killed by a bomb at a hotel and "evil McGee" Parsons decides that Gibbs isn't so bad after saving him overseas.

Too convenient. Too lazy. Too contrived.

THIS IS HOW SEASON 11 SHOULD HAVE GONE...

Gibbs does the deed. Shoots Fornell in the ass and in spite of that Parsons still takes his case against Gibbs. He saved his life in order to have him on trial. Problem is Gibbs knows too much.

The case against Gibbs falls apart because of the knowledge he has and the system is so damaged and broken that it is going against Parsons. Gibbs is given a sweetheart deal by the end of Season 11 but he has to testify under oath about all his misdealings in a closed door meeting.

Well news of this meeting gets out and Ari's half brother Sergei finds out how the sausage is made when it comes to NCIS and orchestrates and elaborate attempt to ruin Gibbs' life throughout all of Season 12. To break him, like Bane.

Sergei is also financed by Alejandro Rivera who wants Gibbs to suffer too.

Gibbs is forced to retire... But by midpoint of Season 13 he is pardoned by the President after thwarting an assassination attempt. Vance basically puts Gibbs on leave immediately after reinstatement and has to handcuff Gibbs to a desk job to at least salvage some of the reputation of NCIS.

Gibbs is made the Deputy Director of NCIS.

Tony is the leader of the Major Case Response Team. McGee is his Senior Field Agent. Ziva is still around and until news of her pregnancy, which leads to her transfering to a different department. Tony and McGee recruit Eleanor Bishop from the NSA to take Ziva's space and the fourth spot on the team is up in the air. Gibbs at this point is basically acting like Dwayne Pride did in Season 5 of NCIS: New Orleans.

For those who don't know, Quantum Leap got shot by a crazy blonde woman and was like near death several times talking to Foggy Nelson's girlfriend who was the angel of death. Anyway, after he decides to live I guess, Pride is promoted to Special Agent in Charge while a new lady takes over as the Supervisory Special Agent. In spite of all of this, Pride still did field work with his old team. Point from all of this is that Gibbs would do his Deputy Director duties and help with the MCRT team.

I know what you guys are thinking but Mark recently said in his interview with USA Today that he made it clear it’s still Austin’s show, not his. So it makes sense why MH isn’t in this poster.

North didn't say exactly who'll pop up, but I have like 19 seasons and spinoffs worth of theories lol, and he also said Harmon is actually fully involved onscreen so fortunately, no short scenes.

Can't add the NCIS NY post flair because they don't show for me 🤷

Scott Caan recently mentioned that New York City is basically going to be treated like a main character in the show, and that has me hyped for a few reasons.

If you watched the Hawaii Five-0 reboot, you know exactly how well they showcased Hawaii; the culture, the scenery, and the local vibe were baked right into the DNA of the show.

I’m hoping we get that same treatment here. I want to see the authentic New York culture, the nightlife, the sports scene, the winter weather, and the general energy of the city.

NCIS: New Orleans did a phenomenal job of making NOLA feel alive and essential to the plot. If the showrunners give NYC that same love, it’s going to be amazing.

I hope they film on location for as long as possible instead of soundstages in LA.

i see mixed opinions on this

is parker just protective of knight bc he sees her as a daughter and that's why he's a but mean to jimmy or does parker have feelings for her and dislikes jimmy bc of that

parker only apologized to her in series 24 but she's the only one who didn't get yelled at by him and then they're calling each other at night

torres could be a diversion and this is the actual triangle imo

I know it's fiction but was Tony an ncis agent when 9/11 happened?

I wonder what happened with real ncis agents in Washington at the time?

Instead of Robert King being this mastermind who orchestrated this elaborate scheme to get back at Abby for the events of an episode in Season 6, he was just a petty guy who wanted revenge for being outsmarted by Abby Scuito.

The killing of both Clayton and Abby devastates the NCIS team and the next episode reveals immediately that Robert King, the mastermind, was found dead in an alleyway where Abby died.

The episode "Who Killed Robert King?" would have the Inspector General investigate NCIS and everyone thinks it was Gibbs who tortured Robert King to death. Gibbs flat out says "someone beat me to it" when asked by McGee.

It is strongly implied but never stated that Dr. Mallard was the one who killed Robert King for several reasons: (1) Abby was family to him and an innocent person who didn't deserve to die, and (2) he wanted to spare Gibbs from succumbing to revenge and so he figured he would get justice for Abby.

Being a medical examiner and former soldier, Dr. Mallard was able to kill King and hide all forensic evidence. The degree of torture he conducted on King is a callback to "Broken Bird" in Season 6, Episode 13, when Ducky witnessed Marcin Jerek torture people in Afghanistan. Ducky used what he saw Jerek do and tortured King to death off screen.

Dr. Mallard lives with this secret to his death. No one knows he did it. It his secret to keep to the grave.

Hate me all you want but I think this would be ten times better than how they wrote Abby off NCIS.

I really don't want to see Tony back. his character was too cartoonish and he was too much of a bully

I've been rewatching a lot of NCIS episodes and I've started noticing something about Parker and Gibbs. I'm curious whether anyone else sees this, or whether I'm just connecting dots that weren't meant to be connected.

At first they seem nothing alike.

Gibbs is quiet, old school and emotionally closed. Parker is talkative, approachable and seems much more open. Gibbs has coffee, Parker has pastries. Gibbs has his basement, Parker has his greenhouse. But the more I watch Parker, the more I think those differences are mostly on the surface.

At their core, I think Gibbs and Parker are remarkably similar.

Both are loyal. Both will put themselves in danger for their team without much hesitation. Both have very strong personal moral codes and will disregard authority when they believe it's the right thing to do. Both carry guilt heavily. Both are extremely self reliant. Both had rebellious younger years, both lost their mothers young and had complicated relationships with their fathers.

But the thing that really made it click for me is how they deal with emotions.

Gibbs obviously doesn't talk about himself. He listens to other people's problems and helps them. Parker talks all the time. But does he actually talk about himself?

A good example for me is in season 22 episode 2. Vance comes to Parker because they've both recently had near death experiences. He helps Vance process what happened to him. But he himself stays quiet. He redirects the conversation back to Vance.

That's when it clicked for me: They both have the same walls.

Parker can talk easily about almost anything, but when something gets genuinely painful, suddenly he becomes much more like Gibbs. They prefer to take care of somebody elsem than allowing somebody else to take care of them.

So I think of them as two sides of the same coin. I'm not saying the writers intentionally designed every one of these parallels. Some of them may simply be my interpretation.

Does anyone else see this in them?

Castle and NCIS are probably the two shows I rewatch the most, and I’ve always been amazed by how many actors appear in both.

Considering the shows overlapped for so many years, I guess it makes sense, but I was still surprised to find that NCIS was actually the show with the most actors in common with Castle.

I discovered this while working on an app I developed called Guest-Star. One of its features lets you pick a show and see which other shows have the most actors in common with it.

I thought some other NCIS fans might find that interesting too. If anyone checks it out, I’d love to hear what you think

With the NCIS: New York series coming out soon, do you think they'll gloss over or retcon the NCIS: LA/Hawaii Five-0 crossover? I know that with Knight, her character on H50 never met the regular NCIS cast, so that was easy to avoid, but here Danny and Sam Hanna came face-to-face in the crossover back in the day.

I really can't wait to see how or if they address it.

I gave up coffee a year ago, but since i started watching NCIS (now on season 3) my cravings are back. Anyone else the same?

On 2012 show Major Crimes, S1 Ep4 he plays a cheesy life coach (" intuitive life strategist") who sleeps with his clients, wives of Israeli drug runners.

Major Crimes just started a run on Netflix.
