A key actor from the very first episode of NCIS offers a realistic response about the chances of coming back to the long-running franchise. More than two decades later, even after the departure of lead actor Mark Harmon, the CBS drama is still going strong on the way to NCIS season 23.
But in a recent interview with TV Insider, David James Elliot offered a realistic response about why he wouldn’t be returning as his JAG character Harm:
“I did that because of R. Scott Gemmill, who was a writer in the first two seasons of JAG on the show, and then he left and he ran ER, and he then of course ran NCIS: LA, and he’s still a friend of mine. I pitched an idea to him, and he liked it. We were talking about maybe taking the Harm character and doing something with him or similar to [it], and then he goes, ‘Yeah, but why don’t we do this?’ And I went, ‘Oh, great,’” It was fun. It’s fun to work with him. I don’t really know any of the people on NCIS, but I guess if they came to me, I certainly would consider it. So who knows.”
More to come…
