Though the ratings have declined, NCIS has remained one of CBS’ top-rated TV shows. Still, it’s been around since 2003 (a spin-off of JAG) and all shows have to end sometime. Could this be the CBS show’s last or, is it all but guaranteed to come back for the 2020-21 season? Will NCIS be cancelled or renewed for season 18? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
An action-drama series, the NCIS TV show stars Mark Harmon, Sean Murray, Emily Wickersham, Wilmer Valderrama, Maria Bello, Brian Dietzen, Diona Reasonover, Rocky Carroll, and David McCallum. On the series, NCIS Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Harmon), a former Marine gunnery sergeant whose skills as an investigator are unmatched, leads a highly skilled and colorful group of professionals who investigate crimes that have connections to the Navy or Marine Corps.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly in the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival.

I love NCIS. Please don’t take off . PS. When Abby left the show I thought Oh No. but I love the young woman who took her place Good job
Yes, bring Ziva BACK! It’s a great show. Bring on season 18!
Lets leave a great tv show on renew to help balance out the junk that on tv. You canceled JAG learn from your mistakes
PLEASE DO NOT CANCEL!!! ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS ON T.V.
I have been watching NCIS since its first show. Totally love it. Bringing Ziva back is ingenious. It can only get better.
We love NCIS. Please keep it going.
I’ve been a loyal NCIS viewer/fan but I have to admit that Gibbs is starting to look old. IT WOULD BE NIce to see the show end on a high note.
I love that show. Give Gibbs a life! Hook him up…
Ncis could go fir 10 more years. It is a television staple, much luke law and order was. If the actors are willing to continue, it shoyld continue indefinitely!
Keep it
I love the show
I think it should stay on TV. I look forward to it every week!
Continue. Still one of best shows on tv.
At one time NCIS was the best drama show on television. After Cote de Pablo left the show began a downhill slide. Granted Mark Harman inspired the rise of NCISs popularity, he can’t carry the entire show. Mark Harmon was entertaining in his dual role as a comedian and the star who provided humor, he is now learning how “invaluable” his character was/is. Yes it should be cancelled
I think it should continue its my absolute favorite show
It differently has to be renewed This has always been a special shoe. All the characters ste special and good. Thanks. Margaret Larsen
