NCIS<\/em> Season 23 ended on a wild note, but Sean Murray is excited about what it could mean for Tim McGee. With the 2026 TV schedule promising some resolution to McGee\u2019s son pulling a gun on Torres, the actor reveled in what this could mean for his character in the episodes ahead. Now, I really can\u2019t wait for the show to return so we can see how this all unfolds.<\/p>\n

Murray was a guest on the official\u00a0NCIS<\/em>\u00a0podcast,\u00a0Partners & Probies<\/em>. During his conversation with co-stars Diona Reasonover and Brian Dietzen, the hosts mentioned that Season 23 revealed a lot of McGee\u2019s past, and of course, ended with a wild cliffhanger that the\u00a0showrunner had already mildly spoiled\u00a0a bit. Even so, the actor talked about what we all learned and how he expects that to impact his character going forward:<\/p>\n

We\u2019re putting McGee through the ringer a little bit in terms of stuff and, you know, one of the things that I\u2019ve always felt is McGee has always kind of planned his life in a certain kind of way and needs things kind of compartmentalized. And anything that throws that off balance is going to be, for me \u2014 I think that\u2019s a fun thing to play with that trying to find the center.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Can McGee find his center after his son was shot by a fellow agent or the other way around? My guess is he may struggle to find his way, and it\u2019s that massive shake-up that delights Sean Murray and keeps him excited for the series decades into playing the character.<\/p>\n

While CinemaBlend previously speculated that\u00a0Sean Murray might be written off of\u00a0NCIS<\/em>, it seems like there\u2019s still plenty in the tank to cover when it comes to him. It\u2019s a good thing too, as he\u2019s the one with the closest connection to Gibbs, who\u00a0sneakily returned to help Alden Parker\u00a0take care of Director Vance\u2019s killer. While Mark Harmon\u2019s character didn\u2019t appear onscreen, he was alluded to after it was said the killer was a proficient sniper, and Parker cooked up some \u201cfresh Alaskan salmon,\u201d presumably having received it from Gibbs.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve learned that this\u00a0moment will be big for Parker and may reveal that the latest head of the division isn\u2019t as squeaky clean as viewers might\u2019ve thought. I would think that as one of the team\u2019s most senior members, it may be on McGee to put Parker in check and ensure that the NCIS team as a whole continues to operate on the right side of the law and not be as corrupt as those they\u2019ve fought.<\/p>\n
