🎬 NCIS: Season 23 (2025)
👉 Sean Murray, Mark Harmon, David McCallum, Gary Cole
The rules are changing — and for the Major Case Response Team, nothing will ever be the same. NCIS: Season 23 launches a bold new era for one of television’s longest-running crime dramas, pushing the team into its most dangerous, emotional, and high-stakes chapter yet.
This season begins with tragedy. Alden Parker (Gary Cole) is shaken to his core by the sudden loss of his father, a grief that doesn’t just haunt him — it consumes him. But behind the sorrow lies a darker truth, as Parker is drawn into a deadly confrontation with Carla Marino, a ruthless figure whose crimes reach deep into his past. As Parker’s grief hardens into obsession, his judgment falters, forcing his team to ask an impossible question: should they follow his orders, or save him from himself?
The storm intensifies with the arrival of Vice Admiral Harriet Parker (Nancy Travis), Alden’s estranged sister. A commanding officer with a sharp tongue and buried resentments, Harriet brings her own agenda — reopening old family wounds at the very moment a global threat emerges. Loyalties within the NCIS family are tested as past betrayals and long-buried secrets erupt, colliding with the urgent demands of national security.
Across its explosive two-part premiere, “Prodigal Son”, Season 23 sets a relentless tone: this is not just about catching criminals, but about survival, redemption, and the bonds that hold a fractured team together. As Gibbs’ legacy still echoes through the squad room, McGee (Sean Murray) steps further into his role as the team’s moral compass, while the presence of old friends and familiar faces reminds the agents that NCIS is more than a job — it’s a family worth fighting for.
With gripping investigations, cinematic action, and gut-punching emotional twists, NCIS: Season 23 redefines the stakes of justice. It’s not only about the cases they solve, but about the dangerous cost of vengeance, the fragility of trust, and the unbreakable resilience of those who serve.
This isn’t just another season. This is a battle for the very soul of NCIS.
