Mark Harmon, known for his portrayal of Leroy Jethro Gibbs on NCIS, bid farewell in Season 19, Episode 4. Initially anticipated to have a reduced role, Gibbs hasn’t been seen since, though his name continues to be referenced.
In a recent episode, Vance divulged a secret about Gibbs: he had been quietly funding the college education of NCIS agents’ children for years as a tribute to his late daughter, Kelly. This revelation stirred hope among fans for Mark Harmon’s potential return.
Further fueling this hope is Harmon’s continued inclusion in the show’s opening credits, leading some viewers to speculate about his eventual comeback. The show’s executive producer also hinted at Gibbs’ possible return, stating, “Never underestimate Leroy Jethro Gibbs.”
