The legacy of NCIS, spanning over 450 episodes and three decades, is not devoid of on-set tensions. Among the most notable conflicts was the feud between Mark Harmon and Michael Weatherly, which still appears to simmer beneath the surface.
Despite the passage of time, reports suggest that Harmon maintains little tolerance for Weatherly’s behavior, considering him a disruptive force on set. Sources close to the actors reveal that Harmon perceives Weatherly as a “toxic pain in the butt” and a “loose cannon,” indicative of ongoing tension between the two former co-stars.
Feuds among colleagues in the entertainment industry are unfortunately not uncommon, often fueled by misunderstandings or heated disagreements. While conflicts like the infamous clashes between Chevy Chase and Joel McHale on the set of Community may escalate to irreparable relationships, the friction between Harmon and Weatherly on NCIS never reached such extreme levels.
Nevertheless, the enduring rift between the two actors serves as a reminder of the complexities that can arise within long-running television productions, even as the show itself continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
