NCIS season 23 episode 5 spoilers: Bobby Moynihan to appear

We’ve known for a couple of weeks now that the crossover between NCIS and then Origins was poised to be pretty special. Now, how about we share more evidence of it now?

According to a new report from TV Insider, former Saturday Night Live cast member Bobby Moynihan is going to be appearing on the flagship show next week as the older version of Woody from the prequel. Meanwhile, Ely Henry will be taking on the part of Phil. This is a fun chance to get updates on these two characters and where they are currently at — and isn’t there something to celebrate here? We love that the crossover is eager to do whatever they can here in order to make it feel special, and not just some gimmick to encourage people to watch both shows. (Remember that Mark Harmon will appear as Gibbs in the Origins part, which is airing in an earlier timeslot.
