Everything we know about NCIS season 22 so far.
While many TV shows are getting the axe, US procedural NCIS is about to head into its 22nd season, which is very good news considering what unfolded in the season 21 finale – which also marked the franchise's 1,000th episode.
After risking their lives to solve three murders at sea, the gang returned to land. And though everyone was more or less safe, viewers were left wondering what the future holds for Special Agent Jessica Knight (Katrina Law) and Dr Jimmy Palmer (Brian Dietzen) after a job offer threw their relationship into disarray.
Will Jess decide to stay? Or leave for pastures new?

NCIS season 22 cast: Who's returning?
The season 21 finale threw a curveball as Katrina Law's Agent Jessica Knight accepted a job in California, with showrunner Steven D Binder remaining tight-lipped about her future in the series.
"Well, we set something up there," Binder told TVLine. "And I will point you to our track record where you just never know.
"We've had people look like they were going away and then it turned out they weren't, and then we had people who just disappeared, like Gibbs."
It remains to be seen if she'll choose to stick around.
The rest of the cast is as follows:
- Gary Cole plays Alden Parker
