This return to its original timeslot (Seasons 1\u201318) is part of CBS\u2019s broader scheduling shake-up, likely to accommodate other\u00a0<em>NCIS<\/em> spinoffs.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3453\" src=\"https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1756472469070-300x227.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1756472469070-300x227.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1756472469070-768x581.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1756472469070.jpg 963w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to Expect in Season 23<\/h3>\n<p>Showrunner\u00a0<strong>Steven D.

According to Binder, Parker will be \u201cdestabilized\u201d and \u201cout for revenge,\u201d a shift from his typically composed demeanor \u2013 much like how Gibbs or Bishop reacted in past arcs.<\/p>\n<p>Complicating things further is the fallout from\u00a0<strong>Palmer\u2019s (Brian Dietzen)<\/strong>\u00a0discovery about Parker\u2019s mother\u2019s tampered death certificate.
