There are many characters from NCIS‘ past that fans would love to see return, and Emily Wickersham’s Ellie Bishop is certainly one of them. While it’s unlikely she’ll come back to the flagship team, there’s potential for her to appear in another series within the NCIS universe.
Could Bishop Return in NCIS: Tony & Ziva?
One obvious option is for Bishop to turn up in NCIS: Tony & Ziva. Bishop is currently working with Odette, who has a significant connection to Ziva from their off-the-books operations.
A Possible Plot Involving Bishop
Based on some comments about NCIS: Tony & Ziva, it appears there is a threat targeting Tony, Ziva, and their family. Tony and Ziva will need to go on the run around Europe, taking their tween daughter Tali with them. Bishop could play a crucial role in this storyline.
Considering Odette’s connection to Ziva, it makes sense that Ziva might still be in contact with her. Odette may need a way to warn Ziva about the impending danger but may not be able to reach her directly. Sending Bishop to deliver the warning would be a logical choice.
This scenario would also provide a great reunion for Tony, who worked with Bishop after Ziva initially left. Tony would be more likely to trust Bishop’s warning over someone he doesn’t know, making it easier for him to take the necessary steps to protect his family.
No Official Word Yet
As of now, there’s no official word on whether Bishop will appear in NCIS: Tony & Ziva. The show has kept many details under wraps, including whether familiar faces from the flagship series will appear or if there will be crossover episodes.
The Potential for Bishop’s Appearance
It would be exciting to see Bishop in the series, even if it’s not to warn Tony and Ziva directly. Odette could send her to Ziva at some point in the series to provide updates or crucial information. This would not only serve as a way to bring Bishop back but also give fans an update on her current activities with Odette. Bishop’s exit from the original series left many questions unanswered, and her return could help address some of those lingering mysteries.
Seeing Bishop back in action would undoubtedly be a treat for NCIS fans, and it would enrich the storylines in NCIS: Tony & Ziva.
