A new NCIS spinoff, “NCIS: Origins,” is generating buzz as it has the potential to bring back a character who hasn’t been seen in the NCIS universe for 19 years. This character is none other than Special Agent Kate Todd, portrayed by Sasha Alexander, who met a tragic end in NCIS Season 2.
“NCIS: Origins” stands out because it’s set in the past, making it feasible for Kate Todd to make a comeback. Since Kate’s departure from the series was final and marked by her death, bringing her back in any capacity seemed impossible.
Kate Todd was a pivotal character in NCIS, and her exit was one of the most memorable and dramatic in the show’s history. While other characters have left and returned, Kate’s departure was permanent, leaving fans longing for closure.
The spinoff’s premise opens up new possibilities for revisiting Kate’s character, shedding light on her backstory and potentially exploring untold aspects of her life. This prospect has fans excited about the potential for Sasha Alexander to reprise her role.
Even in recent seasons of NCIS, Kate’s legacy has been honored, with references to her character in significant episodes. The 1000th episode of NCIS featured a storyline that paid homage to Kate and the team’s early days, reminding viewers of her importance to the series.
As anticipation builds for “NCIS: Origins,” fans are eager to see if Kate Todd will indeed make a triumphant return to the NCIS universe after nearly two decades.
