Timothy McGee may have a brand new job NCIS Season 22 will change the show. Much of the focus of the upcoming return of CBS’ hit procedural is on Jessica Knight’s status with the Major Case Response Team when she decides to take her dream job at Camp Pendleton in the season 21 finale. Although its resolution remains up in the air, NCIS Season 22 is also setting up interesting storylines for the rest of Alden Parker’s team at the Navy Yard. That includes A potential major promotion for Sean Murray’s characterwho is a field agent from season 1.
As part of Entertainment Weeklyits preview NCIS In season 22, it is revealed that the new year will begin six months after Knight left MCRT. Parker is working with a much smaller team and to make matters worse, his members are focused on other endeavors. Nick Torres is going undercover again, when McGee, surprisingly, is awaiting promotion to deputy director. It’s unclear what prompted him to pursue this new role, but the squad is forced to come back together after Parker receives a complicated case.
What McGee’s Potential New Role Means for NCIS Season 22
McGee’s promotion meant he had to leave the MCRT
At this point, it’s hard to say whether McGee will get promoted. It’s worth noting that Mark Harmon left NCIS In Season 19, McGee was given the opportunity to replace Leroy Jethro Gibbs as MCRT leader. He was the natural successor to the role, given how long he had been with the agency, not to mention personally mentored by his legendary predecessor. said, He declined the opportunity, explaining to Torres that he did not want additional paperwork. Unlike Gibbs, McGee has a family and it’s important to him that he spends time with them.
That said, moving up means McGee will have to leave the MCRT in NCIS Season 22.
Still, there’s no denying the publicity McGee is in for. He has been a senior field agent for a long time, and considering his qualifications and experience it would be unfair for him to stagnate in his career. That said, moving up would mean McGee would have to leave MCRT NCIS Season 22. Until Parker leaves and he takes over, there is no place for him in the organization’s current set-up. Even if McGee is Director Vance’s deputy, his workload will be light considering how the agency operates.
NCIS cannot afford any cast departures at this point
in the end, I don’t think Murray McGee is going away NCIS. Over the years, we’ve seen many fake departures from police procedurals, including Knight, as he eventually regains his post at MCRT despite the events. NCIS Season 21 finale. There was a point where Gibbs’ entire team was disbanded by Director Vance as a ploy to find a mole within the agency. It took a few episodes, but eventually, the whole squad was back together.
It’s hard to tell where CBS is going with this story. Sure, it’s interesting. As it explores an aspect of McGee’s arc that has often been overlooked. However, given Knight’s already complicated situation, I think not NCIS MCRT is in a position to do similar stories with its most experienced members. As much as I want him to get a promotion, I doubt it’s time for it, especially if it means Murray leaving the show. above all, NCIS Stability is needed after several major exits over the past several years.
We think McGee’s NCIS Season 22 story exposes a major systemic problem
There is no more room for promotion within MCRT
While I’m still optimistic that McGee will stay with MCRT regardless of what happens with the promotion he seeks, his story highlights an often-overlooked problem. NCIS – Lack of career growth prospects. Because the core team is quite small, there are hardly any options to climb the professional ladder. As a longtime senior field agent, McGee was poised to become the next team leader. However, since he refuses Gibbs’ job, he is stuck in his lowly position for the foreseeable future. That is unless Parker leaves, and he eventually takes that leadership spot.
Keeping this existing NCIS team would mean that McGee would have to abandon any dreams of moving up the agency for the time being.
Despite my initial skepticism, I’ve grown fond of Parker and the reformed MCRT, and I look forward to seeing more of them work together in the coming years. I was once convinced that Gibbs’ departure would be the end NCISWhich was clearly not the case. Keeping this existing NCIS team would mean that McG would have to abandon any dreams of moving up the agency for the time being. Admittedly, it’s also pretty lame, considering all the years he’s spent as an excellent member of the force. Unfortunately, that will be if the show continues with this ensemble format.
