NCIS Season 21: Ducky Tribute Episode Trailer Features ‘Gibbs’ and ‘DiNozzo’

A fresh new NCIS season 21, episode 2 trailer promises Ducky’s emotional tribute episode, which surprisingly stars Gibbs and DiNozzo prominently.

The new teaser for Ducky Mallard’s NCIS season 21 tribute episode stars Leroy Jethro Gibbs and Anthony DiNozzo.

Following a riveting opener that dealt with Nick Torres’ case, NCIS season 21 ended on a cliffhanger, setting the stage for possibly the most heartbreaking episode of the season.

In the wake of David McCallum’s passing, the long-running police procedural is honoring both the actor and his beloved medical examiner-turned-NCIS historian.

The new trailer for NCIS season 21 episode 2, “The Stories We Leave Behind,” addresses Ducky’s death, but it also prominently depicts both Gibbs and DiNozzo in flashbacks. Brian Dietzen, a cast member, provided the following Instagram video:

In the video, Jimmy Palmer walks into Ducky’s residence with coffee and is surprised to discover him deceased on his bed, most likely having died in his sleep.

The following frames show Tim McGee staring at an old photo of himself, Ducky, and Gibbs, as the rest of the current squad debates how best to memorialize Ducky. Surprisingly, the NCIS season 21 episode 2 trailer includes a flashback featuring Gibbs and DiNozzo.

  1. I have watched this show since day 1. It will never be the same without Ducky he was an amazing actor and will be missed by all. I know the team will honor him and in an amazing way and he will never be forgotten!!

  2. I first remember David McCallum from Man From UNCLE and have loved his character of Ducky on NCI, perfectly played by him. Will miss seeing him and the sage wisdom he always brought to the team. Happy they are paying tribute to him. 😢

  3. It all started with “A Few Good Men” that served as a prelude to “JAG”. As “JAG” was a prelude to NCIS. ALL great shows. As Military myself I’ve always been a fan of these shows.

  4. I remember watch David back in the 60s (the men from uncle) was a fan then, this day had to come at some point. I guess a fitting send off from NCIS he will be missed. 😢

  5. Will definitely watch this episode. Haven’t been able to watch regularly since DiNozzo left. Really since Ziva left, none of the replacements have fit. But this one will be amazing. Ducky was one-of-a-kind. He will be missed. Rest well, David.

  6. I , like many remember David “Ducky” from the 60’s “Man from U.N.C.L.E. Show which was great. I remember him in many movies but his best part was that of Ducky which made him a household name to new generations of fans. Ducky will be missed but never forgotten. He will live in our hearts and reruns forever. God Bless you Ducky.

  7. He contributed so much to the show…..it’s like the loss of a family member. I have watched NCIS since Episode 1.
