Mark Harmon may have left NCIS years ago, but his legacy continues to shape the series. Recent discussions around the possibility of reviving classic storylines and characters have once again brought his name to the forefront. Fans who still miss Gibbs are buzzing with excitement at the mere thought of Harmon being involved in any capacity, whether as an on-screen return or a behind-the-scenes role.

Industry insiders suggest that CBS has not completely ruled out bringing Harmon back for special appearances. While nothing has been confirmed, the network reportedly sees value in reconnecting the show’s future with its most iconic leader. Such a move would not only please longtime viewers but also potentially boost ratings during a critical transition phase.

For now, Harmon remains an executive producer on NCIS, keeping him closely tied to the franchise. This ongoing connection leaves the door wide open for him to step back into the spotlight should the timing and storyline feel right. Fans remain hopeful that the revival talks could finally lead to Gibbs making his long-awaited return.
