In a heartwarming nod to the cherished history of NCIS, Season 21 pays homage to one of its most beloved characters: Abby Sciuto. Though she departed the series years ago, Abby’s legacy remains vibrant as she oversees the charity she established in memory of MI6 Agent Clayton Reeves from across the pond in England. While Pauley Perrette’s absence may have seemingly closed the door on her return to the main series, there’s still hope for a reunion, especially if she were to appear alongside Tony and Ziva in their NCIS spinoff. With a clever script, that dream could soon become a reality.
Imagine the excitement as a desperate couple seeks out Abby’s expertise to navigate their own crisis. This not only promises an exhilarating storyline but also sets the stage for an unforgettable reunion. While Perrette’s return to the primary show may be uncertain, a cameo in Weatherly and de Pablo’s venture could serve as the perfect means to rekindle the magic of the original NCIS trio.
With nostalgia in the air and the prospect of a remarkable reunion, Season 21 of NCIS adds another captivating chapter to the series’ storied legacy. Get ready to laugh, cry, and rejoice as Abby Sciuto triumphantly re-enters the world she once inhabited, if only for a fleeting moment.
As for Gibbs, two years have passed since his departure from Washington DC, and he continues to relish his retirement in Naktok Bay, Alaska. While there’s speculation about a potential comeback to NCIS, there’s been no official confirmation of his return to the old office. Fans eagerly await the possibility of a reunion between Gibbs and DiNozzo in the upcoming NCIS spinoff. DiNozzo, once poised to lead the team, shares a special bond with Gibbs, akin to that of a father and son. While Ziva has already reconnected with her former boss upon her NCIS return, Gibbs has yet to reunite with his quasi-son, heightening anticipation for the spinoff.
