“I won’t go back, Tim. I won’t go home.” With these words, Leroy Jethro Gibbs ushered in the nineteenth season of “Navy CIS” In the fourth episode, he not only left his colleague Timothy McGee, but also left other members of the “Navy CIS” team from one of the longest running and most successful series on American TV. fan. Gibbs decided to settle in a sleepy town in Alaska, where he thought he had “found peace.”
For eighteen years, Harmon has been playing a former Marine sniper. After his wife and daughter were murdered by Mexican drug dealers, he led a team of the Naval Crime Investigation Bureau. Gibbs is an old-school man, he has been in his team-including the boisterous magician Dinozo (Michael Weatherly), network expert McGee (Sean Murray), laboratory expert Ai Compare(Paulie Perret) And the medical fighter Daki (David McCallum)-a leader who has led various and sometimes international criminal investigations in a fair but strict manner. The “Navy CIS” that has been mentioned many times is not a thriller at all, but a workplace drama. The chemical reaction of the characters is just right, always looking forward to the next friction, under pressure, of course, a highly competent The professionalism of the team gives way. “This is a very good team,” Harmon once said of his fellow actors.
Recently, about 8 million Americans listened
In many seasons, “Navy CIS” is one of the highest-rated programs on American television. In 2013, more than 22 million viewers watched the tenth season series “Shiva” with the highest ratings, making the show the king of entertainment television in the United States. The best is the series “NCIS”, as it is called in the original version, when it draws charm from the chaos between Michael Weatherly’s carefree top character Dinozzo and the quiet Gibbs, Gibb Sjean Dinozzo’s back on track was only brought about by the indulgence of authority sometimes. Recently, about 8 million Americans watched it, which is still a considerable result in the streaming media era. The series is not only popular in the United States, but also internationally. Harmon admits that, as a European tourist, he can no longer cross the road without acknowledging people-even if he emphasizes that it doesn’t bother him at all. Mark Harmon When he appeared in public, his image was not inferior in terms of decency and humility.

But over the years, the close ties between the characters of the “Navy CIS” gradually broke down, and their actors looked like family members on the set. In 2013, Coté de Pablo, who played with Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) and former Mossad agent Ziva David (Ziva David), left the series. Weatherly herself quit the band in 2016 and started a personal career in the lawyer series “Bull”-he was “exhausted” at the time, Weatherly said. In 2018, as a nerd chemist Abby Sciuto, Pauley Perrette (Pauley Perrette), who mainly attracted young fans for the series, gave in. For the first time, people were angry with her. She allegedly fell out with Harmon on the set, and she talked about “multiple physical attacks” in a vague tweet. What happened is still kept in the dark.
For some fans, this series seems to be over
But changing team members is part of the performance. The series has repeatedly repositioned with new characters. Some people have stayed until now-including computer expert Timothy McGee (Sean Murray) and the coroner and later NCIS historian “Duck” Mallard, whose actor David McCallum is now eight Eighteen years old.
But with Harmon, the grandfather of the series has now left the ship, he is the one who pilots it, and with his quiet frankness he has made a major contribution to the success of the series. “Once this show is over,” Harmon said in 2012, “for most of us, there may not be such a show again.” For some fans, when Gibbs is away, the show seems to be ended. In the past two decades, you have grown or grown old with Harmon’s character. It is hard to imagine what would happen without him. “I follow every episode,” one fan wrote on the series’ Instagram account. I have seen people coming and going, Kate, Ziva, Tony, Abby, and even Bishop, but NCIS is Gibbs. He goes, I go! “
Agent Alden Parker (Gary Cole) will now replace Gibbs——which annoys some fans who regard McGee as the heir to the throne. Others shouted for Cole. At the same time, Harmon, who is also the producer of the series and apparently insists on it all the time, is likely to reappear in front of the camera. At least this is what the host Steven Binder promised. “This is always to be loyal to the authenticity of our characters. So when it comes to Gibbs’s future, fans have probably already noticed: Gibbs should not be simply copied.”
The question is whether you have to copy “NCIS”. This is not the first series to leave the main actors. Other major series have continued after the protagonist’s withdrawal-Steve Carell left “The Office” in 2011, and Charlie Sheen was chosen by Ashton Kutcher in “Two and a Half Men” in 2011. Replaced, and David Duchovny ended up in The X-Files in The Office in 2002. That’s no use. Will it cooperate with the “Navy CIS”?
