WANT: A visit with McGee's whole family
Since the character’s debut in Season 11, Margo Harshman’s Delilah has made 18 total appearances — yet she is barely averaging one-per-season in recent years. And much more conspicuously, we haven’t seen Tim and Delilah’s twins, Johnny and Morgan, since the November 2017 episode in which they were born. References to the rugrats are nice, but we are way, way overdue to see Tim and Delilah parent some actual human beings.
Agree with all of these.
Another plus would be another big franchise crossover
The fewer crossovers with NCIS: Hawaii, the better for me. I’ve tried to get into that show, but just can’t warm up to the characters. Sorry NCIS: Los Angeles won’t still be around.
Emily Wickersham was pregnant when she left and gave birth to her son in December of that year so that’s probably why she left. But I miss Ellie! And Tiva! (and Gibbs). Please give us updates on them or let us see them again.
Also, yes to more Jess/Jimmy.
Her contract was up at the same time. And it was pandemic. So, she probably decided it was time to take a break when she realized she was pregnant. Which is why the sudden turn in the finale, and had her exit. But I DO wish they could revisit it. Even if she only comes back for a episode or two. It seemed like it was setting up a storyline. But also, Nick needs some closure. We do too. One way or another.
The whole update of past characters thing,I have this suspicion that those are being kept more or less in reserve for the last season of the show which almost happened then it got a reprieve because of Gary Cole being so good.All that said it can’t go on but so much longer and I bet the “last season” will be packed with returning cast etc.I bet season 21 or 22 is it especially with season 20 delayed by months and probably in part a whole year.
Not to mention they’ll bring back JAG characters to bring it all back to NCIS’ beginnings as a JAG Spin-Off. Maybe Capt. Bud Roberts Jr. or something like that or maybe Scott Bakula’s Agent Dwayne Pride and some from the LA team and some from the Hawai’i team too to properly close out the main show.
I don’t see them bringing JAG characters back. That was over 20 years ago. I don’t think there would be much intertest in that. I could see a 2-3 episode arc with TIVA and a guest appearance for an episode or two by Bishop. Paulette Pirette has said she would never return, so the best we’ll get is an update. I would be surprised if Gibbs doesn’t return for the final 2-3 episodes of the series.
Didn’t they have an ep or two a couple of seasons ago bringing back some JAG characters?
Yes, Harm & Mac were on NCIS: LA
Agree with numbers 1-4, and no crises for Kasie. As for #5, well, a mention is okay but I not really interested in hearing about anyone beyond Gibbs.
What I do want to see in season 21 is for McGee to have a nemesis like every other character has had, one that puts him in a dangerous/dramatic situation.
I agree with all these. I wish we saw the twins. Now that they are getting older, and in school. Maybe have them pop up. We finally saw Victoria. It’s time to see Morgan and Johnny. We have seen McGee having to deal with the kids school in a case this past season.
What about ol’ Ducky ?
David McCallum will turn 90 in just a few weeks and lives on the east coast. That we occasionally get to see him at all is remarkable. An occasional pop up is the best we can get at this point.
What an amazing long lived life and career for David McCallum! It was great to visit his past where there was a wink/nod to his role in Man from UNCLE. I enjoy the few times we do get to see him on screen.
It would be nice to get updates on former characters even in passing and real treat to end the eventual ending of the show or before, to JAG characters as well.
I thought I saw a framed picture of David from the UNCLE days sitting in the background when he was on a video call with the team in DC during a recent episode
A-HA! I thought I saw the same thing on that episode! Glad I read it here, I had no idea how to get a confirmation, and it would be nagging me forever otherwise. Thanks.
Curiously enough, what got me hooked on NCIS was an earlier show (or rerun) where, at the end of the episode as “Ducky” is bundled away by two admiring young girls, the question is asked “What did Ducky look like when he was younger?” And we get a superb “Gibbs” amused look as he replies “Illya Kuryakin” I just knew I had to start watching that show!
As someone who grew up with The Man From Uncle and swooned over Illya Kuryakin it`s wonderful that we occasionally get to see Ducky.
Ziva asked Gibbs; “What did Ducky look like when he was younger?” Gibbs thought for a moment and stated; “Illya Kuryaken.”
Every time we see Ducky I am beyond thrilled.😁 I’m so glad they did those origin stories of he and Gibbs while Mark Harmon was there and that we got to see Ducky in Scotland. We should all be as blessed to live the life that David McCallum is living.❤
I’d be happy if all of that happened.
Why would you want to see a couple of children ? I can live without that (Unless maybe they get abducted and their pursuit brings out a darker McGee). What I really want to see is OSP personnel visiting Washington !
A way to get a crossover Bishop episode, would be with Ncis Hawaii, and LL Cool J’s character, who can still be in touch with G and co in their hunt for Hetty. Hannah follows a lead to help them in Hawaii and finds Bishop.
I can’t believe that I have been watching since the original JAG. That’s a lot of episodes. I got CBS All Access just to rewatch but it only had a few episodes and now Paramount+ in Canada has none. Like Gibbs being out in the ether somewhere fishing or doing woodwork, same with Hetty, for years I thought of Harm and Mac living happily ever after until that notion was abruptly ruined on NCIS: LA. Still NOBODY looks better in a flight suit than David James Elliott.😁
No to Bishop. Never ever liked that character and was happy to see her go. Gibbs would be great. Others I could take or leave.
Bishop never grew on me so I didn’t care when they wrote her off the show.
I think both the writers and actress are doing a great job with the Jess character.
They have addressed the need for Torres to be more open and to let go of his deep cover persona in previous seasons. Seeing him being more relaxed and more open around his close knit team seems like a natural progression to me.
I just want to see a new episode before 2025!!
I really like the show, even with Gibbs gone, but I still miss Abby. The new leader (can’t remember his name) has fit in super great! The show has shown that just like real life people move on to other things. I was so glad when DeNizzo left, he acted inappropriately with women, I really got to a point where I would mute the tv when he was on. I still love the program with the current actors.
I don’t understand why NCIS LA won’t be back
Am I the only one that remembers Ms. Brannagh appeared in a very early season of NCIS? She was a mental health patient.
Correct.
Co-sign for ALL these. #moredelilah #morejessjimmy #happystoryline4kasie

Also, would like an update on Jack Sloane, given she was in Afghanistan when the U.S. withdrew. Did she make it out alive? And, if so, is she, maybe, in Alaska…
I think every suggestion is great. I would love to see each one added to the show.
The best show on television also we will miss David McCallum as Dr Donald Ducky Mallard Rip Donald. 🙏.
