Gibbs and his team will be back for the 2021-22 television season. CBS has renewed the NCIS TV series for a 19th season on the network.
Airing on Tuesday nights, 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 18th season of NCIS averages a 0.86 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 9.71 million viewers in the live+same day ratings. Compared to season 17, that’s down by 23% in the demo and down by 17% in viewership. In the traditional ratings, the show ranks third out of this season’s 24 scripted CBS series.
While NCIS has been renewed, it’s unclear how many episodes will include Harmon. Word is that still being worked out and it seems likely that he won’t be in all of them.
Fellow Tuesday night shows FBI and FBI: Most Wanted have already been renewed. Today, the network also renewed Blue Bloods (season 12), Bull (season six), Magnum PI (season four), and SWAT (season five).
What do these shows all have in common? They are all…RENEWED.

What do you think? Are you a fan of the NCIS TV series? Will you be watching season 19 on CBS? How much longer should this show continue?
I so love watching NCIS, it has changed with most of the original cast moving on , but it would be nice for them to have some parts were they can be brought in to odd series to help out , example like Gibbs and Ducky ..
Whoohoo!!!! keep them coming! Love this show!! gibbs and his crew are the best!
It will be interesting to see the ratings if Mark Harmon is not in every show – have enjoyed seeing a “softer” side of Gibbs during the last part of this past season. Have watched the show since Episode 1.
I love the show, I would be gutted if it ended.
I will watch as long as Gibbs is involved in every episode and i would like to see Ellie back for season 19 , why break up the team if that’s gonna be the last season!!!
I love the and don’t want to end.
I WILL watch NCIS as long as Gibbs is on the show— you almost lost me in season 2 or 3– when the show ended for the season and Gibs moved to Mexico and stayed with Mike Franks–
