As a spin-off of the iconic CBS series NCIS, NCIS: Sydney has garnered its own following while maintaining ties to its predecessor.

“Our American viewers have fully embraced these engaging characters, unique stories and the fabulous Australian scenery. We are thrilled to bring this show back to CBS next season and spend even more time down under.”

Morgan O’Neill, executive producer and showrunner for Endemol Shine Australia, added: “We’re beyond stoked with the response to the first season of the show, both in Australia and around the world, and that the team at NCIS: Sydney is returning for a second season.

“We’re especially thrilled to invite our audience deeper into the lives of our core team, peeling back the layers to find out what really makes them tick. This will be even more important as we see the bonds of the new family tested to breaking point in the face of a much more potent enemy looming on the horizon.”

So, what can we expect from season two?

CBS and Paramount + have yet to share any details about the new season given it’s only just been renewed, so we’ll have to wait a little longer to find out what’s in store for JD and Agent Mackey.

However, the show did end on a huge cliffhanger with the shocking revelation that Department of Defense’s Rankin was somehow connected to the kidnapper clown who took JD’s son from his ninth birthday party.

About the surprise ending, Todd previously said: “It is endless as to where they could take it.
“What I love is that [Rankin] is such an intrinsic part of the organization and controls a lot of our activities, so to have that person be part of, potentially, our biggest threat and the biggest enemy introduced in the whole series — and she has escaped, as well! — it’s like, where they can go with this is phenomenal,” he told TV Line.

We also know that Todd is keen to explore “the family dynamic side of things” with his character. “This is a dream series for me because I get to play with the comedy, with that cheeky ‘ribbing each other’ element, and also be the straight cop/leader, and then I get to go with the emotional element of the relationship with the son and my ex-wife and the breakdown of that relationship,” he told the publication.
