Revision as of 02:14, 19 November 2008
This is an overview of the regular and recurring characters of the TV series NCIS.
Regular cast
Jethro Gibbs
- Played by Mark Harmon. Supervisory Special Agent, NCIS Gibbs has been married four times and divorced three times. He met his first wife, Shannon, while waiting at the Stillwater Train Platform in 1976, at which point she told him about her rules for life - these would inspire a similar set of rules which he would follow later in life. Shannon, along with their daughter Kelly, were murdered while he was deployed for Operation Desert Storm. Each wife was a redhead, and he once had a romantic relationship with the now deceased director of NCIS, Jenny Shepard, also a redhead. In the first season, he was occasionally seen in the company of a mysterious (and never-identified) redheaded woman.
Anthony DiNozzo
 |
- Played by Michael Weatherly. Senior Special Agent, NCIS Anthony DiNozzo is a streetwise former homicide detective.[citation needed] He is well known for his constant flirtation with nearly every woman he encounters.[improper synthesis?] Some, especially former partner Caaitlin Todd and current liason officer Ziva David, may consider his behavior to be borderline chauvinistic and he is not a respecter of boundaries, thinking nothing of rifling through his colleagues' possessions and confidential information if he thinks this could be used as a source of amusement (for example, downloading details from a colleague's personal organizer without permission).[original research?]
Ziva David
- Played by Cote de Pablo. Season 3 ~ Mossad Liaison Officer, NCIS Officer Ziva David is a Mossad agent sent to NCIS following the murder of Special Agent Caitlin Todd by a rogue Mossad operative named Ari Haswari. She was Ari's control officer and half-sister; they shared the same father, who was the Deputy Director of Mossad (he has since been promoted to Director). During "Kill Ari (Part 2)", NCIS Special Agent Gibbs is cornered by Ari, but then Ziva emerges and kills Ari. After Ari's death, she asked to be assigned as a liaison for Mossad at NCIS, where she subsequently joined Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs' team.
Timothy McGee
|
- Played by Sean Murray. Junior Special Agent, NCIS Timothy "Tim" McGee or "Probie" as he is commonly referred to by Special Agent DiNozzo, and "Elf Lord" on several occasions by everyone else, much to his chagrin, is part of Special Agent Gibbs' investigative team. He gained his field agent status when he was transferred to Washington from Norfolk and now serves as Gibbs' field computer consultant[citation needed], as well as working with Abby Sciuto in the forensics lab when necessary. McGee suggestively[citation needed] dated forensics specialist Abby Sciuto for a short period of time during season one, but it was kept at a casual level on Abby's request.[citation needed] The relationship ended late in season one, with the characters remaining good friends. Since then, Abby has shown distinct signs of jealousy over the attention given to McGee by other female colleagues.[citation needed]
Abby Sciuto
|
- Played by Pauley Perrette. Forensic Specialist, NCIS Abby is known for her gothic style of dress, her addiction to the fictional beverage "CafPow," and her pigtailed dyed hair, with at least nine tattoos on her neck, arms, back, ankle and other places which are only hinted at "Episode 5-9 "Lost and Found"".; while some of the tattoos are real to the actress, some, such as the large cross on her back, is makeup applied for the occasions that Perrette shows her bare back on camera.[citation needed] The spider web on her neck is not real either[citation needed]; producer Donald Bellisario wanted the character to have a tattoo that would be visible (almost) all the time.[citation needed] Her style of clothing includes black dresses and t-shirts, mini-skirts, and goth jewelery.[citation needed] Anklets and toe rings often decorate her feet.[citation needed] She has stated several times that she sleeps in a coffin, and in episode "Hiatus", she says she has a hearse that has flat tires all the time. Despite her "dark" fashion sense, Abby has a happy-go-lucky attitude and a sweet personality.[original research?]
Leon Vance
- Played by Rocky Carroll. Vance was introduced as Assistant Director in Season 5. He is made the new Director after the death of Jenny Shepard.
Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard
|
- Played by David McCallum. Chief Medical Examiner, NCIS Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard, M.D., M.E. is a fictional Chief Medical Examiner in the NCIS television series by CBS Television. Ducky is a Scottish[citation needed] chief medical examiner, who assists the team and has an eccentric habit of talking to the dead bodies upon which he performs autopsies and finding seemingly random bits of trivia to ramble on about even though others may not be interested. The fact that a mallard is a type of duck most likely explains Ducky's nickname; the word 'Ducky', is also a term of endearment .[citation needed] Secondly, his first name is Donald which alludes to Donald Duck.[improper synthesis?]
Recurring cast
Tobias C. Fornell
Template:NCIS character Played by Joe Spano. Fornell is a Senior FBI Special Agent who first appeared in "Yankee White". He is often involved in "inter-agency turf wars" with Gibbs' NCIS team. The two frequently pretend to be angry at each other in front of their agents, only to meet in an elevator and talk. Their friendship is close enough for Gibbs to delay his retirement in the second episode of Season 4 in order to come to the aid of Fornell and his daughter.
Mike Franks
Template:NCIS character Retired NCIS Agent Mike Franks he was called in to help with Gibbs' memory after he went in a coma from a bombing. He is Gibbs' former mentor and partner, still referring to Gibbs as "Probie".

La Grenouille (René Benoit)
René Benoit, alias La Grenouille ("The Frog"), is an arms dealer from France. Director Shepard had been hunting La Grenouille for over ten years. Although he had connections to Iran, the CIA appear to have tolerated him as a method of funneling faulty information to them. According to a psychological profile by Dr. Mallard, La Grenouille, while a "merchant of death", was not a violent man by nature. In his final appearance ("Bury Your Dead"), La Grenouille is forced to ask Director Shepard for protection because he believes someone is trying to kill him and take over his arms business. Shepard hands him a 9mm and tells him to "protect [him]self". At the end of the episode, he is seen floating in the Baltimore harbor with a single gunshot wound to his head. In "Angel of Death," it was revealed that La Grenouille is the father of Jeanne Benoit, Tony DiNozzo's girlfriend.
Ari Haswari
Played by Rudolf Martin, Season 1-2. Haswari is a terrorist who wounded both Gibbs and Gerald Jackson when he infiltrated the NCIS morgue during the first season.

Approximately a year and a half later, a week before he was scheduled to return to work, Gerald was again captured by Ari Haswari in an effort to secure Dr. Mallard's audience[2].
Hollis Mann
Played by Susanna Thompson. Mann is assigned by the CID to help in a co-operative investigation with NCIS involving a bombing at the Army-Navy Golf Club.

Charles "Chip" Sterling
Chip first appeared in the episode "The Voyeur's Web", as a new lab assistant for Abby Sciuto. Chip attempts to frame Tony for murder (in which he almost succeeds) in Frame Up.
