Just about everyone glued to the TV has, at some point, tuned into NCIS for a dose of action and comic putts from its lead actors. The show has had a good following with its top billing on Mark Harmon leading an interesting bunch of characters that take on real time roles of military crime forensic investigators.
Mark Harmon sure has captured a good audience share of women who may have followed his career from way back in the early 80’s in the TV prime-time soap Flamingo Road where he played the role of Deputy Fielding Carlyle. The man was a hunky piece of sweet baby blues with a disarming smile that could just melt you into a ramekin steaming in a bain marie! In the show, he was married to one of America’s 50 most wicked women on primetime TV, Constance Weldon Carlyle played by Morgan Fairchild. Back in the day, this was drama about the rich and mundane. Over the years, Mark Harmon has been in several popular series such as St. Elsewhere and Chicago Hope. He has been married since 1987 to Pam Dawber who played opposite to Robin Williams in the popular late 70’s comedy series Mork and Mindy.
Thirty years later, with his salt and pepper hair, he takes on his role as Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs. With his subtle sarcasm and quiet demeanour, it tells you something runs deep and this keeps you wanting and waiting for any chance to squeeze more smiles out of him. His adorable closeness with the show’s quirky Goth chemist character, Abby Scutio, just makes him even more appealing as he tries to slightly let his guard down in the confines of her laboratory. NCIS is on its 8th season. The show is a spin off from the series JAG where Agent Gibbs was first introduced. Created by the same genius who made other well-known series such as Airwolf and Magnum PI, no wonder NCIS enjoys a solid following of its fan base of 22.85 million viewers.
