Rocky Carroll, who has been part of NCIS since 2008, has not officially announced his departure. Given his long tenure and contributions as an actor and director, his departure would likely be announced in advance. Currently, Vance remains a vital part of the show.
Amidst these concerns, there’s speculation about Timothy McGee’s future, with hints that he might become the director of NCIS, succeeding Vance. McGee’s recent role adjustment prompts questions about potential leadership changes.
In a positive update, Pauley Perrette, who played Abby Sciuto, is mentioned in the new script. While Perrette has no plans to return, her character remains part of the show’s history.
On a personal note, Pauley Perrette faced health challenges, including a stroke last year, and announced her retirement from acting in 2020.
Finally, the premiere of NCIS’s 20th season recorded its lowest viewership figures, raising concerns about the show’s future. Despite the challenges, fans are encouraged to support the show that has been a significant part of their lives.
