The author argues that while Mark Harmon's return in 'NCIS: Origins' was a step in the right direction, a true 'Gibbs' return should happen in a different capacity.

NCIS' Main Show Has Mostly Moved On From Gibbs Gary Cole Now Leads The NCIS Flagship Close While Gibbs would be welcomed back to the flagship with open arms, it isn't the best place for Harmon's return. Those involved in the production of NCIS after Harmon left have fought for the series to stand on its own. Many were cautious in believing that NCIS would survive after Harmon's exit, but the series paved the way for a different show after Gibbs left. His replacement as the supervisory agent, Gary Cole as Alden Parker, has been Gibbs' opposite and didn't leave us with the opportunity to discuss how a Gibbs-like agent would feel after Harmon's exi
