CBS is going to have to change their call letters to NCIS because next season, four of them will air on their network and one on streaming.

Today, CBS announced that they picked up NCIS: Hawaii for a second season.

“The global power of the NCIS franchise became even stronger on broadcast and streaming with the addition of NCIS: SYDNEY,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “Our American viewers have fully embraced these engaging characters, unique stories and the fabulous Australian scenery. We are thrilled to bring this show back to CBS next season and spend even more time down under.”

It will most likely join NCIS and NCIS: Hawaii, which have yet to be renewed, and the newest member of the franchise NCIS: Origins, which is Gibbs’ backstory. Ziva and Dinozzo are traveling Europe on Paramount+.

What’s next, NCIS: Space?

Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly are getting a NCIS spinoff

Cote de Pablo and Michael Weatherly are NCIS’s favorite couple. So, it would make sense that Paramount+ is interested in giving them their own spinoff. So, today, the streaming service announced that the agents are getting a 10-episode series, which will be filming later this year.

After Ziva’s supposed death, Tony left the NCIS team to go raise their daughter. Years later, Ziva was discovered alive, leading her to complete one final mission with NCIS before she was reunited with Tony and their daughter in Paris. Since then – and where we find them in the new Paramount+ original series – Tony and Ziva have been raising their daughter, Tali, together. When Tony’s security company is attacked, they must go on the run across Europe, try to figure out who is after them and maybe even learn to trust each other again so that they can finally have their unconventional happily ever after.

“We’ve been talking about this story for many years, and now with John McNamara at the helm, we are ready,” said Weatherly and de Pablo. “The world of Tony and Ziva (and daughter Tali) promises to be an action-packed roller coaster fueled by love, danger, tears and laughter. We also want to acknowledge and thank the fans from around the world who supported the ‘TIVA’ movement for years. To this day, they say hello in grocery stores and on the street to tell us how much these characters mean to them and ask what Tony and Ziva are up to now. This is for you!”

This is not the only NCIS spinoff debuting next season. Mark Harmon’s character Gibbs is getting a prequel on CBS called NCIS: Origins.

Mark Harmon returns to the NCIS franchise with NCIS: Origins

NCIS is taking it back to the beginning for its latest spinoff from the beloved franchise.

Since 2003, we have seen NCIS branch off with NCIS: LA, NCIS: NoLa, NCIS: Hawaii, and NCIS: Sydney. And coming to the 2024-2025 season on CBS, we will see where it all began with NCIS: Origins.

NCIS: Origins begins in 1991, years prior to the events of NCIS and follows a young Leroy Jethro Gibbs, narrated by Mark Harmon. In the series, Gibbs starts his career as a newly minted special agent at the fledgling NCIS Camp Pendleton office where he forges his place on a gritty, ragtag team led by NCIS legend Mike Franks.

“We are elated and honored to continue the expansion of the NCIS universe in such a unique and unexpected way,” said Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment. “Viewers can look forward to Mark Harmon returning to CBS to narrate the complex and mysterious backstory of Leroy Jethro Gibbs’ early years in NCIS: Origins, which will build on the rich legacy of this character while reintroducing fan-favorite characters and meeting new ones.”

CBS has not begun to cast the show, so who do you think should play young Leroy Jethro Briggs? I think Gale Harold would be a good choice.

This is the second new series that CBS announced for next season. The first was Watson, based on Sherlock Holmes’ partner, who is back working as a doctor.

An NCIS is coming to CBS this Fall

The NCIS franchise is down to two series on CBS, NCIS and NCIS: Hawaii, and it looked like we were not going to get any new episodes in the Fall due to the strike.

But we forgot that Australia added its own NCIS, so NCIS: Sydney is coming to CBS on November 13th.

The show will focus on the rising international tensions in the Indo-Pacific, a brilliant and eclectic team of U.S. NCIS agents and the Australian Federal Police (AFP) are grafted into a multinational taskforce to keep naval crimes in check in the most contested patch of ocean on the planet.

I plan on watching Sydney for the scenery because Australia is a beautiful land down under.

NCIS: Hawaii gets cool, LL Cool J
May 22nd, 2023 under NCIS. [ Comments: none ]

Yesterday was the series finale of NCIS: LA, and we thought that was the last time we were going to see LL Cool J’s, Sam Hanna. But it wasn’t.

Tonight the Rapper turned actor appeared on the season finale of NCIS: Hawaii. Hanna left Morocco to help Jane Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) and Kate Whistler (Tori Anderson), who were under attack in Venezuela.

Now that he saved them, they are going to save his character from going to the TV show graveyard.

That is because executive producers Matt Bosack, Jan Nash, and Christopher Silber announced, “All of us at NCIS: Hawaii have been huge fans of LL Cool J for years and couldn’t be more thrilled or honored to be adding his spectacular talent to our ohana for season three.”

Hopefully, he will go from recurring to series regular because I am not ready to see his character ride off into the sunset.
