**NCIS Reunion: Abby Sciuto and Jimmy Palmer Reunite with Criminal Minds’ Star!**
NCIS stars Pauley Perrette and Brian Dietzen, along with Criminal Minds’ Kirsten Vangsness, recently reunited at the Hollywood Bowl to enjoy a Sarah McLachlan concert. Perrette, who portrayed forensic scientist Abby Sciuto since the JAG backdoor pilot, left NCIS towards the end of Season 15. However, she has maintained close relationships with her former co-stars.
Perrette shared a fun Instagram photo with Dietzen and Vangsness, humorously assuring fans that “NO CRIME WAS COMMITTED HERE!” The reunion sparked excitement among fans, who were thrilled to see an NCIS and Criminal Minds crossover. Dietzen echoed the sentiment, posting similar photos and expressing his joy at spending time with his “two lovely humans.”
This delightful reunion raises questions about Perrette’s potential return to NCIS. Despite her departure being marred by tensions with co-star Mark Harmon, Harmon’s exit from the show could pave the way for Abby’s return. Although she hasn’t appeared since leaving, her character is occasionally referenced, such as in the Ducky tribute episode featuring a goth-themed wreath presumably sent by Abby.
Even if Perrette doesn’t return to NCIS soon, it’s heartening to see her maintain friendships with her former co-stars. The addition of Vangsness to their gathering has fans dreaming of an NCIS and Criminal Minds crossover, especially with the upcoming season of Criminal Minds: Evolution.
While fans eagerly anticipate potential reunions, the bond between Jimmy and Abby remains strong. The hope for Perrette to reunite with the rest of the NCIS team lingers, especially with Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo hosting a new NCIS rewatch podcast. Whether or not Abby returns, fans will be eagerly waiting to see what happens next.
