**NCIS Time-Travels Back to Origins with New Spinoff!**
NCIS is diving into a new era with its upcoming spinoff, NCIS: Origins, set to premiere later this year. This series will transport viewers to the 1990s, exploring the early days of Leroy Jethro Gibbs as an NCIS Special Agent.
While NCIS: Origins explores the past of its iconic characters, there’s still more potential to delve deeper into the true roots of the NCIS universe. The franchise’s foundation actually began with the popular CBS legal drama series JAG, which aired from 1995 to 2005. JAG paved the way for NCIS by introducing the concept of military officers as leads, foreshadowing NCIS’s success as a spinoff.
Should NCIS: Origins resonate well with fans, the franchise might consider further exploring time-traveling concepts for future shows, particularly since JAG remains a significant part of its universe with unresolved storylines.
NCIS previously bridged connections to JAG through crossovers involving characters like Harmon Rabb Jr. and Sarah “Mac” MacKenzie. This potential spinoff could not only attract viewers familiar with the original show but also provide closure to lingering narratives.
As NCIS expands its universe, the potential for a JAG-based spinoff promises both nostalgia and new adventures, ensuring the franchise’s enduring appeal.
