NCIS fans can officially start counting down the days until the franchise's return on Tuesday nights. Less than one week remains until the procedural crime dramas get back in action as part of CBS premiere week, and this year, there is much to look forward to. On a grander scale, a new branch of the agency is set to open up in NCIS: New York, with LL COOL J's Sam Hanna returning alongside a new team and a "roguish" new partner played by Scott Caan. The return of franchise legends comes in threes, though. Longtime flagship lead Mark Harmon is locked in for a season-long arc on Season 3 of the prequel series NCIS: Origins, while the Major Crimes Response Team officially welcomes back Tony DiNozzo himself, Michael Weatherly, following the cancellation of his spin-off, NCIS: Tony & Ziva.
