As a dedicated fan of the NCIS franchise, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and sadness with the recent news. On one hand, it’s amazing to see the franchise expanding with new shows and seasons. The announcement of NCIS: Origins, NCIS: Sydney, and the continuation of Tony & Ziva is truly thrilling. I’ve grown up with these characters, and it’s fascinating to see their stories unfold in new and unexpected ways.
Origins,” a prequel focusing on Leroy Jethro Gibbs, is scheduled for release in 2024. Both “NCIS: Sydney” and the Paramount+ spinoff “NCIS: Tony & Ziva” have been renewed for second seasons and are currently being produced. However, not all news has been good – CBS recently canceled “NCIS: Hawai’i,” making it the shortest-lived NCIS show to date. The creative team behind the show has spoken out about the cancellation, expressing their disappointment and sadness over its termination.
Three months have passed since “NCIS: Hawai’i” was canceled by CBS, and showrunners Jan Nash, Christopher Silber, and Matt Bosack shared their thoughts on this and other matters with TVLine. In their conversation, they collectively revealed how they felt upon hearing the cancellation news.
If we had been warned about that development, we likely would have concluded the series without leaving fans on a cliffhanger. It appears that even the studio and network didn’t anticipate it, making us question their foresight. We deeply cared for our show and believed many viewers did as well. However, the unpredictable nature of television industry compels us to make business decisions detachedly. Yet, this unexpected turn still leaves a bitter taste.
Vanessa Lachey, the star of “NCIS: Hawai’i,” was taken by surprise when she learned about the show’s cancellation shortly after the news became public. Her costars, Jason Antoon and Tori Anderson, shared similar feelings. Antoon remarked that the entertainment industry can be merciless. Although Nash, Silber, and Bosack acknowledged the harsh reality and tried not to take it personally, they wished they had known in advance so they could have wrapped up the series without any unresolved storylines. Sadly, this wasn’t the case, leaving viewers with an unsatisfying cliffhanger instead.
After the cancellation, Antoon expressed his disappointment towards CBS regarding their decision by bringing up an article highlighting that “NCIS: Hawai’i” had placed sixteenth in total viewers during the 2023-2024 TV season. A short while later, CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach acknowledged the challenging nature of cancelling “Hawai’i,” “So Help Me Todd,” and “CSI: Vegas.” Among all NCIS spinoffs, “Hawai’i” was the third one, following “Los Angeles,” which had a successful run for 14 seasons, and “New Orleans,” which lasted for seven seasons.
According to TVLine’s reports, discussions about saving “NCIS: Hawai’i” from cancellation didn’t succeed. Creators Jan Nash, Christopher Silber, and Matt Bosack expressed their gratitude towards fans for their dedication and shared their own feelings of sadness. Although there’s a possibility that some “Hawai’i” characters might reappear on other shows, this marks the end of an era. Many believe the decision came prematurely.
As a gamer and an avid fan of NCIS: Hawai’i, I can suggest this: If you’re hankering for more NCIS: Hawai’i or want to experience its first three seasons anew, head on over to Paramount+ and subscribe.
