Because the writers strike involves an finish and SAG-AFTRA has an opportunity to re-enter negotiations with the studios, it’s time to evaluate occasions that would occur in NCIS Season 21. Positive, we’re not going to see the season till 2024, however there’s nothing stopping followers from arising with their very own NCIS Season 21 theories.
This season goes to see a serious change. Sadly, David McCallum, who performed Ducky, handed away on the age of 90 in September. That is one thing that the collection might want to acknowledge, as he was the one remaining OG forged member on the collection. It’s an enormous loss for followers of NCIS and McCallum as a complete.
The 20th season ended with a serious cliffhanger, too. We noticed Nick Torres threaten to kill a person, which might put his entire profession on the road. How might he get out of that, and what may very well be in retailer for the others?
Ducky’s Demise Is Introduced to Everybody
The one solution to write Ducky out of NCIS is thru artwork imitating life. So, to start out the NCIS Season 21 theories, we contact on how Ducky’s exit goes to occur. We’ll seemingly see the crew be taught that Ducky has died whereas he was away someway.
I’d hope that this isn’t performed in a approach that’s for the sake of an enormous case. It will be finest if the dying is dealt with in the same solution to McCallum’s actual dying: by pure causes. This is able to enable the crew to focus straight on their grief as an alternative of constructing a case to unravel Ducky’s dying. This is able to even be finest for followers, as we could have an opportunity to grieve Ducky.
There Will Be Discuss of Loss
Because the present is more likely to embody Ducky’s dying, we’ll must see how that performs out for the crew. We’re certain to see the present convey us a season that features the dialogue of loss. Every character might want to grieve in their very own approach.
For Parker and Knight, the loss gained’t be as onerous. They didn’t know Ducky in addition to the others. In reality, I don’t keep in mind them even assembly in individual. Torres will take it tougher, however he’s additionally coping with his personal private scenario. It’s Jimmy and McGee who’re certain to take care of the loss the toughest. We have to see them make some tributes, which can assist us all grieve and transfer on.
Torres Will Need to Make a Alternative
NCIS Season 20 ended with a serious cliffhanger: Torres broke into a person’s home and was threatening to kill him. Will we see Torres undergo with it? That’s his selection.
I’ve a sense we’ll see him resolve to not kill the person. As a substitute, we’ll see him go on a mission, as we be taught precisely what this man did to Torres’ household. He had known as his sister earlier than heading to the home, so we might see Torres’ sister present up in time to assist her brother. Alternatively, Bishop might be taught what’s occurring and go to assist Torres. We final noticed her go off to work with Odette on some secret missions, however she would seemingly come again if Torres was in peril or risking his profession for revenge.
Knight and Palmer Transfer In
What about Palmer and Knight? They went by some main relationship steps in NCIS Season 20, with the L-word lastly uttered. One of many NCIS Season 21 theories includes the 2 of them. Is it doable that the 2 will transfer in with one another?
Even when they don’t undergo with shifting in collectively, the dialogue would should be had. They may resolve that it’s not finest for Victoria for the 2 to maneuver in collectively, however they may additionally discover that constructing on their household unit is the very best for his or her relationship. I doubt we’ll see a proposal, however simply the subsequent step will probably be sufficient to make followers glad and eventually convey an finish to NCIS relationships not understanding.
Former Characters Return to Say Goodbye
With Ducky’s dying, there are loads of characters of the previous who we are going to wish to see grieve. Ducky was an enormous a part of the crew, even when he took a step again and solely video known as in. This might imply former characters come again for an episode.
Mark Harmon as Gibbs would take advantage of sense. Even when he can’t be there in individual, it will be good to see him on a video name or no less than get a point out of him listening to about Ducky’s dying. It will be nice to see Tony and Ziva again in order that they’ll say their goodbyes too.
McGee Writes One other Novel
It’s been a very long time since we’ve had a point out of McGee’s novels. It was introduced up throughout NCIS Season 20 briefly, however there was no point out of him beginning a brand new novel.
It’s very regular for him to lose ardour or the muse for writing. McGee is now a dad to twins, and he has his arms full with them and his spouse. Then there are the circumstances that he will get concerned in. Nevertheless, he has new brokers who he can flip into characters, and he might even embody a storyline of loss as he offers with Ducky’s dying.
There’s One other NCIS: Hawaii Crossover
January 2023 introduced us an enormous second. Three NCIS exhibits crossed over with an enormous storyline that teased extra to return. Whereas NCIS: Los Angeles has ended, there’s nonetheless NCIS: Hawaii on the present, and it’s not like we haven’t seen some crossovers between the flagship present and latest spin-off.
There may very well be a crossover that’s linked to Torres’ present storyline. May Jane Tennant know a bit extra of what occurred in his previous? May the crew name Jane and others in to assist with the scenario? Alternatively, we might simply see one other case that sees Knight head to Hawaii to convey just a bit closure to Ernie’s eager for her.
For extra NCIS, take a look at who the forged is courting and married to in actual life under.
