NCIS: Sydney Returns for Season 2 With More Drama and High-Stakes Action

NCIS: Sydney is set to make a thrilling return following the breakout success of its first season. Premiering January 31 on CBS at 8 PM, the series brings back Special Agent Michelle Mackey (Olivia Swann) and Sergeant Jim “JD” Dempsey (Todd Lasance) as they tackle new cases against the backdrop of Australia’s stunning scenery.

Season 1 ended with a shocking cliffhanger, revealing that Department of Defense official Rankin was tied to the attempted kidnapping of JD’s son at his birthday party. Reflecting on the twist, Todd Lasance told TV Line, “It’s endless where they could take this. Rankin is such an intrinsic part of the organization … to have that person potentially as our biggest enemy is phenomenal.”

Behind-the-Scenes and Season 2 Buzz

Filming for Season 2 wrapped in October 2024, with Todd sharing a heartfelt post celebrating the journey. “That’s a WRAP on JD for Season 2 of NCIS: Sydney,” he wrote. “172 days. Still can’t believe I get to be part of this series. It has already changed my life forever. Hope you all love this season as much as we loved making it!”

Olivia Swann shared similar enthusiasm, posting a cast photo with the caption, “We’re getting the fam back together! So happy. So excited. So grateful.”

The show’s renewal came as no surprise after Season 1 became Paramount+’s most-watched Australian series and CBS’ top new show of the 2023-2024 season, drawing over 10.2 million U.S. viewers. CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach praised the series for expanding the NCIS franchise: “The global power of the NCIS franchise became even stronger with NCIS: Sydney. American viewers have fully embraced these engaging characters, unique stories, and the fabulous Australian scenery. We’re thrilled to bring this show back and spend even more time down under.”

What to Expect in Season 2

As the team faces new challenges, Rankin’s betrayal looms large. With the antagonist still at large, the stakes have never been higher for Mackey, JD, and their team. Fans can expect more gripping storylines, thrilling action, and breathtaking views of Australia as NCIS: Sydney cements its place as a global favorite.
