Burning Questions and Spoilers Galore: What’s in Store for NCIS Season 21? Get Ready for Shockers!
Due to ongoing strikes by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Screen Actors Guild (SAG), NCIS fans may experience a delay in the release of Season 21, which is anticipated to hit screens in early 2024. The cliffhanger ending of Season 20 adds to the challenge of the extended wait for viewers.
As Season 21 looms, fans have posed ten pressing questions, seeking answers to key plotlines. One major mystery revolves around the man Nick confronts in the Season 20 finale. While undercover in jail, Nick encounters an inmate with a grudge, leading to questions about the individual’s identity and the nature of the crime that deeply affected Nick’s family.
Another critical query involves Torres’s actions in Season 21, specifically whether he will pull the trigger in the aftermath of holding a gun to someone’s head in the season finale. The potential consequences for his NCIS career add an extra layer of intrigue to the storyline.
The evolving relationship between Jimmy and Knight, from confessions of love to the prospect of moving in together, is a focal point for fans wondering about the romantic hurdles the couple may face in the upcoming season.
Parker’s new romance, tied to a plotline involving Russian agents and Senator Miller in Season 20, sparks curiosity about its continuation and the impact it might have on Parker’s character dynamics.
Kasie’s health, revealed to be an issue late in the previous season, raises questions about the character’s well-being and how actress Diona Reasonover’s recent surgery might influence Kasie’s storyline.
The potential return of Fornell, a former FBI agent and a longstanding presence on the show, is on fans’ minds, considering his significant appearances in Season 20 and his knack for injecting caustic wit.
Speculation abounds regarding the return of Ziva and Tony, portrayed by Michael Weatherly and Cote De Pablo, respectively. While scheduling conflicts and the limited episode count for Season 21 may impact their appearances, fans remain hopeful for a reunion of the beloved characters.
The absence of Gibbs since Mark Harmon’s departure in Season 19 prompts fans to wonder if and when he might return for a case, with the possibility left open by the “never say never” attitude.
The prospect of another crossover event, a hallmark of NCIS, is also considered, though the limited episode count for Season 21 poses challenges. Fans hope for quick appearances by Hawaii cast members to further expand the NCIS universe.
