NCIS season 16 spoilers: Gibbs takes over as acting director as Vance's future remains uncertain
'NCIS' is all set to return for a 16th season this month, and as usual, there's no telling which way the show could swing. But educated guesses and popular spoiler speculations online can give us a thin bread-crumb-trail to follow in order to know what to expect on CBS' long-running police procedural drama.
The new season arrives just four months since the shocking departure of Abby Sciuto (Pauley Perrette). The well-loved forensics expert was one of the few cast members who had been with the show since the very conception and watching her go was surely heart-wrenching for fans. For those wondering if NCIS could drop any more of their well-beloved longtime characters, it's worth noting that 'NCIS' is not foreign to the concept of surprise deaths, leaving the doors open for anything really.
