It’s fantastic news that NCIS will return for a second season. The bad news is that Mark Harmon, who played Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs, left the series after five episodes, and it’s unclear if he’ll ever make another appearance. Executive producer Steven D. Binder did, however, say, “Regarding the future of Gibbs, as long-time fans of the show may have noticed over the years… Never underestimate Leroy Jethro Gibbs.
Due to the departures of Maria Bello (Special Agent Jacqueline “Jack” Sloane) and Emily Wickersham (Special Agent Eleanor “Ellie” Bishop), as well as the new day and time, there were other character changes.
One of them was the casting of Gary Cole as FBI Special Agent Alden Parker, who now leads the NCIS team after being fired from the FBI for supporting Gibbs—and after McGee (Sean Murray) declined the position. Parker joined the cast as a member of the FBI, but he now leads the team after being fired for supporting Gibbs.

Cole said to TV Guide that when contrasting Gibbs to Parker, “Parker is more vocal but not overly chatty. He isn’t as traditional; he makes an effort to obtain the newest technological equipment and dazzle everyone. He’s making an effort to blend in with the group. He may be hesitant to admit it, but he admires Gibbs for breaking the rules. Parker stretches them. We’ll watch to see if it reaches the breaking point.”
