Are Mark Harmon's 'NCIS' days numbered?
NCIS fans are still freaking out over exec producer Shane Brennan?s cryptic tease last week that Gibbs will be forced to make a ?life-changing decision? this May ?that will impact every member of the team.? In fact, the tantalizing spoiler left some wondering ? crazy talk alert! ? if Mark Harmon?s days are numbered.

?I don?t think [that's the case] but I don?t know for sure,? Harmon told us last night prior to the PaleyFest ?10 event honoring NCIS. ?I?m still having a blast doing the show. That hasn?t changed since Day 1. I have no plans to leave. I have a contract with significant more time on it. But that may not stop the producers from getting rid of me if they think that best serves the story or the show. But I have no plans to take myself out of the game.?

Okay, well, that still leaves the question of what crisis will befall his character at season?s end and how it ties into Rena Sofer?s no-nonsense lawyer (and possible love interest for Gibbs) Margaret Hart. ?Whatever [fans are] thinking, they?re wrong,? counters Harmon. ?It is never the obvious [thing] on this show. As always, these writers make you think something but it is almost never what you think will happen. I think it is good to keep people guessing, especially after seven years.

?I think it is time for us to see these people away from their job and with their girlfriends or family,? he continues. ?It is time to let out some of those nuggets. We?ve earned them. They come for the procedure but now we have earned the right to break off another piece of the puzzle.?

Getting back to the big May mystery, Harmon hints that although Sofer?s character plays a part, ?she is not alone. Others will play a part, [too].? (Reporting by Carrie Bell)

Exclusive: A New NCIS Triangle!

Everything will not be AOK on the April 6 episode of CBS' NCIS, tvguidemagazine.com has learned exclusively. No, it's not more "Tiva" drama?this time, it's a triangle among Tony (Michael Weatherly), McGee (Sean Murray) and... homicide detective Phillip McCadden (played by Adam Kaufman, Poppy Montgomery's on- and off-screen squeeze from Without a Trace).

"McGee will let jealousy get the best of him when a bromance develops between Tony and McCadden?whom Tony affectionately dubs 'McC,'" says exec producer/show runner Shane Brennan. The jilted dude even comes up with a nickname of his own for the fast friends, calling them "T-Cad." Who needs Tiva?

What do you think?can Tony and McGee's bromance be saved?

Question: I think you?re really cool and occasionally awesome. I also think you have the coolest job ever. So anyway, I have a question about NCIS. Any dish on May sweeps? ?Annie
Ausiello: Occasionally awesome? This next scoop begs to differ: ?Abby will face the biggest dilemma of her professional life,? reveals exec producer/showrunner Shane Brennan, ?when she must decide whether to withhold or reveal a secret that could destroy the NCIS team.? Occasionally awesome my arse.

Question: Tiva this, Tiva that. Got any NCIS scoop not connected to those two? ?Alexa
Ausiello: There may be trouble in paradise for NCIS? hopeless bromantics, McGee and Tony. ?We are going to explore McGee and Tony?s relationship a little more in an upcoming episode,? reveals Sean Murray. ?They have a very older brother-younger brother type [of] relationship. They protect and tease each other and show off in front of each other. But there is a pecking order, and Tony is on top of it. But he may be challenged by something McGee says or does.?

Once again, information comes from Muse Watson himself, via his twitter and facebook. The actor performing Mike Franks continues to interact with his fans and he has unofficially confirmed that his character will be the party at the end of Season 7.

According to the estimates, its intervention will be for the episode 7 ? 20 or 7 ? 21 in late April or early May While the site is once again delighted with the news.

Is Jericho survivor Ashley Scott about to launch a full-scale attack on Tiva? Or am I just tricking you into reading an otherwise run-of-the-mill casting item? Keep reading and find out!

Sources confirm to me exclusively that Scott has closed a deal to guest star on NCIS this May as Dana Hutton, a ZNN reporter who vanishes without a trace. The NCIS crew is tasked with tracking her down, but one member of the team ends up taking a, ahem, special interest in the case. Guesses? Here?s a hint: There?s a clue embedded in the image to the left. Give up? Keep reading for the answer!

Warning: Incoming spoiler?

It?s DiNozzo that ends up taking a, ahem, special interest in the case!

Confession: I added ?ahem? and italicized ?special interest? for dramatic effect. The truth is, although Tony does take a special interest in the case, I don?t know for sure that he takes a special interest in the case, if you catch my drift.

Bottom line: If you?re still reading this news story then my plan worked! Mwhahahahahaha. In other news, follow me on Twitter via @ewausiellofiles

McAbby Fans rejoice! McGee and Abby will ?share a hotel room when they travel to Mexico for business?, previews exec producer Shane Brennan.

He promises the season finale on May 25 will be dramatic. "I was watching Mark Harmon in a couple of scenes because it's a Gibbs-centric finale, and I think that what Mark does in these episodes is something outside of the normal Gibbs comfort zone. ... There's almost a feeling of dread that starts to happen in the last three episodes. You know, like a large dark cloud on the horizon. I can't give away anymore specifics because of the nature of it, but it is a usual twist, and tragic. It will be very surprising."

Pauley:

"Abby is in Mexico simply to teach, but she does make some cold-case discoveries while she's there," Perrette tells TVGuide.com. "She makes a few discoveries, actually, that come back around to other parts of our NCIS story lines that have been building for years."

In particular, Abby finds a bullet she believes she can trace, which makes Gibbs, who murdered a Mexican drug dealer responsible for the death of his wife and daughter, more than a little nervous. The discovery will greatly impact Gibbs and Abby's relationship well into next season.

"We're really getting into their relationship, and it's heavy," Perrette says. "There's a lot of stuff going on. We're going to new territory and putting a microscope on the intensity of their relationship"

Abby's relationship with McGee (Sean Murray) will also be explored while she's south of the border. When McGee ends up in Mexico as well, he's a bit jealous that Abby has a crush on the organizer of the symposium, Perrette says.

"There's a handsome Latino stranger that Abby has her eye on," she says, noting that McGabby fans shouldn't give up hope. "There will always be something between McGee and Abby. They love each other and they had a relationship ? clearly they went out and then they broke up. I love that the show didn't deal with that as a contentious relationship. They may not be a couple, but they do love and respect each other."

Perrette describes the final episodes of the season as a puzzle and says that viewers won't want to be missing pieces. "Things are being brought up and coming together that have been being set up for seven years," she says. "Seven years of details and memories and random stuff is coming together, which is fascinating. For our super fans who have been around since the beginning, it's going to be, like, 'Whoa!'"

As for that ending, Perrette says it's being kept under lock and key. In fact, she says she shot some infamous "red-page scenes," which include script pages that only the relevant cast members receive. After the scene is shot, the script is shredded.

"I've heard that there are other cast members who have had red-page scenes that I've never seen," Perrette says. "I don't even know what the final scene of the final episode is. But I've heard it's crazy. I'm on the edge of my seat too
