NCIS Spoilers – Mark Harmon To Make Limited Appearance on Season 19
Reports have been circulating that Harmon will make a limited appearance in the show’s upcoming season. The network has not revealed any specifics regarding this issue but sources have confirmed that the actor won’t be seen that much next season.
TVLine reported that Harmon’s number of appearances will be “in the low single digits” and another said he’ll be making only “a few” appearances. A CBS representative declined to comment on these reports. But in previous interviews, CBS entertainment chief Kelly Kahl said “we take it year by year with Mark.”
“We’d love to have him as long as he’d like to be here…. [W]e’re happy to work around his schedule,” Khal added.
It seems like the network has prepared for all these given how season 18 ended. Fans may recall that in the season finale, Gibbs, who was suspended indefinitely at NCIS, was blown up while taking his handcrafted boat out in the open water. In the final moments of the episode, his body can be seen floating away. The season ended with fans wondering who the culprit is.

With Harmon’s limited appearance, the show needs someone to fill the void that Harmon will leave behind.
