The NCIS Christmas episode for 2024 looks to be a good one. Plenty of drama is coming to take the show into its winter hiatus.
Last year, NCIS fans didn’t get to enjoy a Christmas episode. Two Hollywood strikes shut down production and limited CBS to only 10 new episodes.
Luckily, the strikes ended soon enough for NCIS Season 22 to get a full episode order, and there is lots of drama to come later this season.
First, NCIS fans get a Christmas episode on Monday, December 16. While many shows have begun their winter breaks, the NCIS shows have continued airing new content.
NCIS Season 22, Episode 9, is the Christmas episode and (also) the fall finale. It is immediately followed by a Christmas episode of NCIS: Origins on the same night.
For some interesting trivia from the NCIS Universe, the name of this new episode (Humbug) was also used for NCIS: Los Angeles Season 6, Episode 11, in 2008.
NCIS Christmas episode synopsis
“When a shocking tell-all threatens to ruin Christmas for a decorated Marine, NCIS must uncover the truth and deliver a holiday miracle – before the book hits shelves and turns a hero’s legacy into a holiday disaster,” reads the full synopsis for the NCIS Season 22 Christmas episode.
