Abby’s Comeback? Pauley Perrette Could Return to NCIS Through Tony & Ziva’s Spinoff!

Pauley Perrette’s departure from NCIS was met with mixed reactions, but the show managed to write her character, Abby Sciuto, out by having her leave after a traumatic incident. This involved a hitman attack and the death of MI6 Agent Clayton Reeves, who died protecting her. Abby then moved to the United Kingdom to establish a nonprofit in Reeves’ name, honoring his legacy while coping with her trauma.

With Michael Weatherly’s Tony DiNozzo returning in NCIS season 21 and joining forces with Cote de Pablo’s Ziva David for their own spinoff, NCIS: Tony & Ziva, there’s a perfect opportunity for Abby’s return. The spinoff will follow Tony and Ziva as they navigate Europe with their daughter, Tali, while being pursued by unknown forces. Given the challenges they face, trust will be crucial, and Abby, a loyal and trusted ally, would be an ideal addition to their team.

Despite her past conflicts with Mark Harmon, Perrette maintains a positive relationship with the rest of her former NCIS co-stars, making her return a possibility. NCIS: Tony & Ziva has the chance to reintroduce the beloved character Abby, much to the delight of fans.
