We don\u2019t think some monster 28-episode order is coming to make up for the four that we lost. In some ways, a 24-episode order itself is in question and could depend mightily on when filming is projecting to start.<\/p>\n<p>One of the things that we\u2019ve learned about production on network TV over the years is how much of a well-oiled machine it is. It ultimately has to be if you\u2019re going to turn around two dozen episodes from July until early May. You have a very set schedule since that is the only way you can get stories done before the end of May sweeps. That\u2019s an important time for networks ratings-wise and because of that, we can\u2019t see episodes airing later than that.<\/p>\n<p>With all of this in mind, we have a hard time seeing 24 episodes for\u00a0<em>NCIS\u00a0<\/em>season 18 unless production either begins in late summer, or they decide to extend filming well into 2021. Otherwise, the show is going to have to severely compress the schedule, and even with the most optimistic of views, it\u2019s hard to imagine it working. The only reason a slightly-later start in August could still work is that we know that the first few episodes (a.k.a. the last ones from season 17) are already m<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed out. Is anything possible in theory? Sure, but there\u2019s only so much you can ask of production during this complicated time.<\/p>\n<p>More so than episode count, the biggest thing to stress entering the new season is quality. Deliver stories that serve as a great reminder of what makes this show great, and what made us miss it so much. No matter when it premieres, this is probably going to be the biggest\u00a0<em>NCIS\u00a0<\/em>hiatus we\u2019ve ever had.\u00a0 Even back during the writers\u2019 strike, there was still a finale that aired in May.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related News\u00a0<\/strong>\u2013 Be sure to get some more news when it comes to NCIS and what could be coming up long-term<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_many_episodes_do_you_think_well_get_in_NCIS_season_18\"><\/span>How many episodes do you think we\u2019ll get in\u00a0<em>NCIS\u00a0<\/em>season 18?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Be sure to share right now in the comments!
