Network TV -Drams love the suspension. These shows are designed to leave questions unanswered for as long as possible, making viewers back up time with a teaser and cliffhands before Finally Explaining an episode of retrospectives or a great discovery. It is a tried and real formula; The mystery is sweet, but the emotional payment (and "I told you so" that it comes with the right assumption) is sweeter.

Unless that show is not "NCIS", a series that is seemingly from the dawn of time, but does not actually answer the vital questions about the first wife of her protagonist to 2024. CBS's drama about the Naval Crimes Investigation Unit was not actually the show that interrupted the news: Mark Sharmon left NCIS in 2021But his character, Leroy Ethetro Gibbs, lives in the form of Austin Stowell, who now plays a younger, greener version of the Prequel series agent Ncis: Origins. It's that show that explores the earliest days of Gibbs As an agent of NISIt sheds light on a long -term story that includes a dead wife and Gibbs' daughter in a complete shock.

If you did not remember Gibbs' wife, Shannon (played by Darby Stenchfield in the original series) before joining NCIS: Origins, it's probably because he had four of them before the 22-season series in length. Shannon was the first, the most beloved and the only one that did not divorce. After Diane (Melinda McGrav) came, an IRS investigator who was killed in the 12th season; Rebecca (Eriers Ryan), who cheated on him; And Stephanie (Kathleen York), whose marriage to Gibbs was short. Before everyone comes from Shannon, which is shown in retrospectives in a glittering way, can only be ethereal dead women on TV police. She was Kelly's mother (played by various actors), but the couple died in a car accident when Kelly was only eight years old.

The accident happened in 1991, and the NCIS episode in season 3 revealed that the "accident" may not be the best word for what happened to the couple. In the finals of the two -part seasonal finals, Gibbs is developing a bad amnesia case that leaves him convinced he is fresh of the desert storm. It also gives him retrospectives in life with his wife and daughter he rarely talks about, who we know they were killed after their driver was killed in an attempt to prevent Shannon from testifying as a shooting witness. The driver's death caused the car to crash, and the man was responsible for the same man who saw Shannon shooting a man before: Pedro Hernandez (Thomas Rosales Runior), a cartel dealer.

At one point during the NCIS, the organization's files if Fernandez marked them as a sought after man who was never caught, but members of the Gibbs eventually learned that he had learned that he was Killed in an obvious killing "pursuit of execution". Expert for Forensics Abi (Pauli Pereett, who left the show in the season 15) In the end, he discovered that the most logical theory of his death did not respond to official records. A long story short, it turned out that Gibbs went to Mexico after his family was killed, followed Hernandez and shot him. The play later revealed that Gibbs was persecuted by his choice to take revenge, but thought it was necessary. In the 16th season, decades after killing Hernandez, Gibbs finally told the truth about what happened.

This may sound like the end of the story, but the writers behind the NCIS series Prequel would miss a huge opportunity if they did not revise the formative and emotional moment in Gibbs' early career. With so many details about the event that NCIS has already missed, however, NCIS: Origins had to become a little creative with its big turn. He did so in episode 9, "Vivo O Muerto", which revealed that Gibbs actually hunted Fernandez before He joined the Maritime Investigation Service.

On paper, this is a small difference, but in terms of character building, he throws Gibbs into a completely different light. He did not use the power of his badge to cover up murder, but instead committed out -of -court murder and Then joined the law enforcement. How Opisode TV's review He points out, the turnaround makes Gibbs feelings for Lala (Mariel Molino) look tricky, but otherwise, it's the most attractive thing that the show has contributed to the overall NCIS universe ever.

It also makes Gibbs look much less heartless because he can pay attention to his NIS cases in the early episodes of "origin", rather than obsessively spending his time to connect the thumb and impose on a killer in the basement like any new TV. Plus, how Noted the resources for comic booksThe first season of the Prequel series reveals ways other team members, such as the original Mike Franks (Muse Watson) series, felt accomplices in the avoided death of Gibbs' wife and daughter.

More human sick and more surprises are no doubt in the NCIS: Origins viewers store: The series has been restored for the second season of CBS, with the premiere date that is yet to be announced.
