Premiere Date for ‘NCIS’ Season 21: Prepare yourselves! NCIS season 21 is set to premiere on February 12, 2024, airing at 9 p.m. ET on CBS. It will resume its place in CBS’s Monday night lineup, leading into new episodes of the spinoff series NCIS: Hawai’i.
Mark Harmon’s Potential Return: As of now, there’s no confirmed return for Mark Harmon in NCIS season 21. However, he remains an executive producer of the show. After leading as Leroy Jethro Gibbs for nearly two decades, Mark Harmon’s departure after season 19 surprised fans. In a recent interview, Harmon hinted at Gibbs’ mysterious whereabouts, stating, “Is he going to get out of the stream? I don’t know. But if he is, I don’t know about it.”
NCIS executive producer Steven D. Binder expressed interest in bringing Gibbs back, emphasizing the need for the “right story” to facilitate his return.
The ‘NCIS’ Season 21 Cast: The cast of NCIS season 21 will feature Sean Murray, Gary Cole, Rocky Carroll, Katrina Law, Wilmer Valderrama, Brian Dietzen, and Diona Reasonover. The show will address the loss of David McCallum, who portrayed Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard, in the second episode, airing on February 19. This episode will serve as a tribute to McCallum’s cherished character and will reflect on the team’s memories of him.
CBS has not yet disclosed the future of NCIS beyond season 21, with a decision likely to be made around May 2024. Nevertheless, the series remains a ratings success for CBS, with its viewership expanding over the years, particularly through its availability on Netflix, where the first 15 seasons are currently streaming.
