Missing NCIS while waiting for its next season to come out? Here's how to get your fix. The long-running show, named after the real-life Naval Criminal Investigative Service, first premiered in September 2003, and in its more than 20 years on the air, has produced well over 1,000 episodes, plus six spin-offs. Most recently, it added NCIS: Tony & Ziva to the family, which premiered on September 4, and which brought back Michael Weatherly and Cote De Pablo's characters Anthony DiNozzo and Ziva David, 10 years after the former's departure as a series regular, and 12 after the latter's.
And while we are still a month away from getting new episodes of the mothership show when it comes back for its 23rd season on Tuesday, October 14 — returning to its original Tuesday time slot on CBS after airing on Mondays for a few seasons — luckily you can always revisit its more than a thousand episodes, as well as some of the spin-offs that have been canceled, if you're feeling extra nostalgic.
Here's where to watch or stream all of the NCIS universe.
