‘NCIS: Origins’ Reunites Mark Harmon’s Gibbs and Michael Weatherly’s DiNozzo After 10 Years
If you’re a fan of the original NCIS, get ready to grab some tissues. Mark Harmon and Michael Weatherly are stepping back into their iconic roles as Gibbs and DiNozzo, sharing the screen for the first time in ten years. The magic is happening on the prequel series, NCIS: Origins, and CBS just dropped a first look at the long-awaited meeting.
In the preview, Gibbs walks back into the NCIS office, backpack on his shoulder, looking like he hasn’t missed a beat. He steps into DiNozzo’s office—yes, the one with the director’s nameplate now—and delivers a line that will give you all the feels: “You’re home. And home means family.” It is pure nostalgia, folks.
The storyline makes perfect sense: Gibbs is looking for help from his former right-hand man after getting shot by some mysterious baddies in the season opener. DiNozzo, now running the show as director, is the only one he trusts. The full episode goes down on Tuesday, October 20, at 10 p.m. on CBS, so mark your calendars. You can catch it on Paramount+ if you prefer streaming. And if you thought this was the only crossover, wait until you see Brian Dietzen popping up as Jimmy Palmer in NCIS: New York alongside LL Cool J. The whole NCIS universe is linking up this fall!
