‘NCIS’ season 13 spoilers: The many changes ahead for Gibbs
At this point, it doesn’t feel necessarily like anyone is acting as thought Agent Gibbs is actually going to die on “NCIS” season 13’s September 21 premiere. For a while, we were not quite sure just how the producers were going to approach this, but it’s starting to become at least a little bit more clear. Ultimately, this makes more sense to treat Mark Harmon’s character as though he’s probably going to make it through. Did you really think that this show would exist without him?
What is a little bit more entertaining, at least to us here, are what some of the long-term effects to Gibbs being shot could be. For this, we’re talking a little bit more along the lines of whether or not the character could end up having a drastically changed life as a result of everything he went through. Based on what executive producer Gary Glasberg told TV Guide, this could very well be what happens:
“There are definite changes and adjustments to the Gibbs character in this near-death experience that he has … There are physical changes. There are psychological changes. There are changes in his approach to his agent-ing. … It’s tricky.”
We are actually all form Gibbs having a little bit of a different role at this point on the show, and mostly because he’s been doing roughly the same thing for 12 years and he’s probably not going to be in great shape after this. It makes a lot more sense to hand off more of the field missions to McGee, Bishop, and Tony while you spend your own time actually working to get better. If Gibbs is out chasing bad guys by episode 3 or 4, we’re going to be seriously questioning the realism of it all.
We know that Gibbs’ time in recovery could end up causing some tension between him and other members of the team. Want to know more? Then head over to this link, or sign up if you want to score some further TV news on all we cover via our CarterMatt Newsletter. (Photo: CBS.)

With the latest news about Mark Harmon taking on a new project with CBS called Red Circle – I think the writing is on the wall for big chances for NCIS. I am a long time fan of NCIS from the start with JAG. I have enjoyed all 12 seasons and I will desperately miss NCIS when it ends.
If they plan to end Gibbs run on the show my only wish is that they don’t turn him in to a sour old man. Making enemies of all his team members. Gibbs has led this team as the father figure and suffered the ups and downs of his agents along with the ghost that haunt him from his life. Gibbs is a wise man after a little soul searching and recovery of his wounds Gibbs should accept and understand that the evils of the world will never be overcome. No matter how many you get another one will take his place.
Let the man find his soul mate (Carrie Clark would be good) When Carrie Clark is on the show there is always a twinkle in Gibbs and her eye when they have a scene together. After Jackson Gibbs died they had a scene together in “Alibi” where she said that she heard that his father could be as challenging as his son, and that she liked a challenge. I think that Carrie would let Gibbs be Gibbs in a relationship. Please let Gibbs get a little love before they send him off into the sunset. Let the fans see him happy in a few episodes. They could be very entertaining also.

I want to Gibbs to be fine very soon. I just don’t see Tony or even McGee as team leaders. It’s Team Gibbs for a reason. I know some people want Tony to take the lead but that wouldn’t work for me, sorry.

Tony is Team leader material & has proven that. Director Shepard knew that as she offered him his own team in Rotta,Spain. He turned it down & went undercover & remained in Washington,DC. Director Vance is well aware of this also.

I watch NCIS since the JAG days ok. I’m fully aware of that but still in MY (=personal opinion) Tony was not convincing. In MY eyes he failed. People see things different. What makes yours better or more important than mine? I shared my own pov here. And telling me the story I have watched myself does not make me change my opinion.
