NCIS Season 22 Must Resolve the Craziest Storyline That Nearly Destroyed the Series!
NCIS season 22 has an important task ahead: resolving a storyline that nearly derailed the entire series. This plotline began in season 21, which was filled with memorable moments despite being shortened due to the WGA strike. Season 21 honored the show’s most senior cast member, Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard, after David McCallum’s passing at 90, and it also celebrated the 1000th episode of the franchise. However, beyond these milestones, season 21 introduced paranormal elements into the NCIS universe, a bold move that left fans divided.
As the series heads into season 22, several uncertainties remain. Jessica Knight’s future on the show is unclear after she accepted a promotion in the season 21 finale. Additionally, the status of Special Agent Alden Parker and NCIS Director Leon Vance is still unknown following their injuries in episodes 7 and 10, respectively. Vance was shot in the back by a sniper during the 1000th episode, while Parker nearly lost his leg in the season finale.
Whoever returns for season 22 will have to confront the unresolved supernatural storyline as the show continues this fall, bringing closure to one of the most controversial plots in NCIS history.
