Learning MBB's character is a psychopath is a dark twist that might have been only an OKish ending but MBB's portrayal made it hit really hard.

NCIS was enriched by its stellar line up of outstanding guest stars. Gina Rowlands as Joann Fielding, Gibbs' mother-in law, was wonderful. So were the other guest stars mentioned in this thread. And Muse Watson as Mike Franks played perfeclty against Mark Harmon's Leory Jethro Gibbs. But my absolute favorite was Charles Durning as the WWII vet with delayed PTSD. I also enjoyed Drew Carey's guest turn. Factoid: I worked with Drew during his pre-fame restaurant days in Cleveland. Really a great guy!

Always amusing when the title is "you forgot were on" yet we get "fans remember fondly" in the video. That said, having Firefly clips makes up for it. Some you missed: Jeri Ryan - known for Trek and Leverage was Gibbs' second ex-wife. Charles Durning - played a WWII Medal of Honor recipient with survivor's guilt Terry O'Quinn - old friend of Gibbs who is hallucinating Mike Farrell - of MASH fame played a judge who was doing the Star Chamber Hal Holbrook - season 4's 'Escaped' French Stewart - played a convicted serial killer in two episodes Glen Powell - played a marine with PTSD 10 years before he was in Top Gun Maverick Adam Baldwin - played the commander of a special forces team Danica McKellar - of The Wonder Years played a murder witness who gets close to McGee Kelly Hu - played a North Korean assassin in a crossover with the LA spinoff Lance Hendrickson - our favorite 'artificial person' from Aliens played a sheriff in season 6 SXSW Cherlyl Ladd - played a girlfriend of Ducky until she turned out to be a serial killer.
