To rejoice Sean Murray’s birthday, NCIS releases a set picture of Tim McGee all bloodied and injured. At present, there aren’t any extra unique ensemble members in NCIS’ official forged. Murray is the longest-serving participant within the sequence, debuting in season 1. He has been enjoying McGee for such a very long time, that it is easy to overlook that he wasn’t a part of Gibbs’ inaugural MCRT squad. Regardless, Murray is arguably a very powerful piece within the procedural’s run, basically taking up Mark Harmon’s spot as its poster boy.
Gibbs mentored a number of brokers throughout his time as Navy Yard’s MCRT lead. He labored with Kate Todd, Tony Dinozzo Jr., Ziva David, and Ellie Bishop, amongst others. That mentioned, McGee was arguably his true protégé — one thing that wasn’t clear till Harmon’s NCIS exit in season 19. Granted that McGee did not inherit his function within the company, there is not any denying that Murray’s character turned the higher model of Gibbs.
In celebration of Murray’s birthday, long-time NCIS franchise producer David J. North has shared a behind-the-scenes picture of the actor’s throughout one in all McGee’s most susceptible moments. Within the picture, the MCRT Senior Agent is being wheeled out to an ambulance as he nurses gunshot wounds. The picture was taken through the filming of Gibbs’ notorious sniper shot on McGee in NCIS season 18. Take a look at the picture beneath:
Coincidentally, Murray’s birthday takes place days earlier than NCIS season 23’s very first McGee-focused episode. In “Web page-Turner,” his long-time creator alias, Thom E. Gemcity, returns for a Deep Six-focused outing. Primarily based on the official synopsis for NCIS season 23, episode 6, MCRT’s Senior Agent is kidnapped by a mysterious individual whereas he is in the midst of selling his newest novel. The trailer for the outing teases a extra inventive providing from NCIS, because it reveals Gemcity’s characters coming to life.
It is no secret that NCIS season 22 was a disappointing 12 months normally for the present, but it surely was significantly a let-down for McGee. Whereas the CBS procedural tried to offer him a considerable private storyline by having him apply for a promotion after which get right into a rivalry with Gabriel LaRoche, nothing actually got here out of it. By season 23, he is nonetheless in the identical place that he has been for years. It is curious if NCIS is planning on revisiting that narrative shifting ahead, however for now, it is not taking place anytime quickly.
In the end, there is not any denying that McGee wants a meatier storyline for himself. The return of Gemcity is an efficient begin, however there must be one thing that’s associated to his work within the company fairly than one thing exterior of it. It is one facet of his story that has been stagnant for some time in NCIS.
