The day that most “NCIS” fans feared has now come: Mark Harmon aka Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs is leaving after 18 years.
While the 18th season of "NCIS" has only just been broadcast in Germany, US fans can already enjoy the 19th season of "NCIS" *.
But the fourth episode was not that good for most viewers.
The farewell hits hard fans of the first hour in particular - they let their emotions run free on Twitter.
For others, the farewell doesn't seem so surprising.
After all, the actor Mark Harmon (70) has been talking about wanting to get out of the series for a long time, according to
bild.de,
among other things
.
But how did the series farewell go?
"NCIS": This is how Special Agent Gibbs says goodbye
++ Warning, spoilers ++
In episode four of season 19, Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs and Timothy "Tim" McGee (Sean Murray) solve the case of a hit man.
Gibbs was originally suspended from duty - but since the case was successfully closed, the director of NCIS, Leon Vance (Rocky Carroll) offers him his job again.
Gibbs refuses, after all, he has "found his peace." And he also told McGee: "I'm not going back, Tim" and adds:
"I'm not going home anymore."
This scene probably hits the fans right in the middle into the heart, as this tweet shows:
Oh no !!
I've been watching this show since it started airing!

But would Gibbs return?
"NCIS": Is there a comeback for Gibbs?
Of course, the question cannot be answered unequivocally.
At least the showrunner Steve Binder announced to the US magazine Deadline:
"As an executive producer and dear friend of mine, Mark will remain an important part of the structure of the series."
So Mark Harmon is still active behind the camera.
