Mark Harmon is poised to revisit his iconic role in “NCIS: Origins,” delving into his character’s early days within the organization. However, fans may witness Harmon’s return as Gibbs sooner in NCIS season 21, particularly in an episode dedicated to bidding farewell to David McCallum’s character, Ducky Mallard.
Following McCallum’s passing, the CBS police procedural intends to pay homage to the beloved medical examiner-turned-historian with a special episode. The storyline will revolve around the team solving a case that Ducky was actively pursuing before his passing.
Given Gibbs’ longstanding friendship with Ducky, which predates the series, it’s only fitting for him to attend the planned funeral.
Thankfully, NCIS season 21 won’t need to heavily emphasize Harmon’s return, given his integral role in the franchise’s history. Instead, Gibbs can respectfully pay his respects at Ducky’s funeral without much fanfare.
It’s unnecessary for Gibbs to engage with other characters, including Tim McGee, despite their longstanding professional relationship. Gibbs’ primary focus is to honor his old friend and bid him a fitting farewell.
