A new episode of NCIS finally debuts on Monday night.
It’s been another brief hiatus for NCIS Season 22, but this is the final break of the season.
From here on out, it’s a stream of new episodes until the season finale in May.
The good news is that CBS already ordered NCIS Season 23.
New episodes will arrive in September or October 2025, kicking off another season of the long-running drama.
CBS also renewed NCIS: Origins and NCIS: Sydney, keeping three shows ready for primetime next year.
NCIS Season 22, Episode 17 synopsis
“After NCIS captures the hitman known as The Poet, the team races to uncover who ordered the assassination of a Navy chief,” reads the NCIS synopsis for the April 14 episode.
The new episode is called Killer Instinct.
NCIS cast for Killer Instinct
The NCIS cast features many guest stars for Season 22, Episode 17.
Seamus Dever as Gabriel Laroche and Brooke Lyons as Tammy Laroche are featured in early press images for the big night.
Laroche got the job that Agent Timothy McGee (Sean Murray) was applying for. It has kept the mysterious man on McGee’s radar all season.
Brooke Lyons joins the NCIS cast as Laroche’s wife.
Margo Harshman returns as McGee’s wife, Delilah, and the couple has a dinner party with the Laroches.
We haven’t seen Delilah in a while, so this is a fun treat for NCIS fans.
Below is an image of Laroche and his wife at the party.
