Plus, as executive producer Steven D. Binder shared with TV Insider while breaking down the May finale, there are some stories they didn\u2019t have time to get to this past season. Read on for more.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>You put more Torres through the wringer this season and we started to see that addressed with him in therapy, talking about drinking, Gibbs (Mark Harmon), not much about Bishop (Emily Wickersham) really though. What did you want to do with him this season when it comes to that?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Steven D. Binder: <\/strong>I think a lot of that stems from a conception Wilmer had early on about the character, which is that this guy is really locked away and he opened up for Bishop and she left, and he opened up for Gibbs and Gibbs left. I think we\u2019ve seen him lock back up again and we\u2019ve seen him struggle with drinking as a result of that. So it\u2019s not that these things aren\u2019t there, it\u2019s that they\u2019re really, really locked up tight, and at some point, it\u2019s going to come out. We got a hint of that in the cage-fighting episode where you just saw some of his internal demons come out. I think that\u2019s really part one. This is a guy who\u2019s under a tremendous amount of pressure. Now he\u2019s a professional and he\u2019s getting the job done, but he\u2019s got these internal pressures building up inside him, and at some point, you pop, and I think that\u2019s in his future.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>What can you say about that and how dark Part 2 might get?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s always a really fine line for this show. If you take someone like Leroy Jethro Gibbs on paper, that guy\u2019s as dark as it gets. He killed Pedro Hernandez. He was in his basement drinking whiskey out of a nail-filled bottle. He arguably may have committed murder to protect Bishop a couple seasons ago, and there\u2019s certainly a case to be made for that. I think we\u2019re gonna go pretty dark with [Torres], but we try and do it in a way that doesn\u2019t destroy what we love about the character, so always in service to something greater. It\u2019s not just pure darkness.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1046318\" style=\"width: 865px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1046318\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1046318\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie-855x570.jpg\" alt=\"Diona Reasonover as Forensic Scientist Kasie Hines in NCIS\" width=\"855\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie-855x570.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie-434x289.jpg 434w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie-234x155.jpg 234w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie-570x380.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/ncis-season-19-kasie.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 855px) 100vw, 855px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1046318\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sonja Flemming\/CBS<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>You played a bit with Kasie (Diona Reasonover) possibly leaving, then she decided to stay at NCIS. What\u2019s next for her?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I sure hope she stays because she\u2019s fantastic. We\u2019re dabbling potentially with her having a significant other. We\u2019re gonna see where that goes. We used to do Abby-centric stories relatively frequently or at least with a rhythm. It\u2019s been a while since we\u2019ve done a Kasie story. I think we\u2019re gonna have something fun for her coming up that may or may not involve her relationship. We\u2019ll see where the story takes us or where that character takes us. But I think Season 20 is gonna be a season where everyone\u2019s really gonna get a chance to shine, have their own episodes and have them be pretty powerful. And Kasie is certainly overdue, I can tell you that.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Kasie did ask Knight (Katrina Law) about how many dates constitute a relationship.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She did. She did.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>I loved seeing Ducky (David McCallum) back in the last two episodes. Do you know how much we\u2019ll see him next season yet?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think it\u2019ll be probably about the same, possibly more. One of the things that was difficult last season was it wasn\u2019t a regular season. It opened up with all of our energies devoted to, how do we get Gibbs off the show? How do we give him the exit, for now at least? And that takes a lot of energy and it takes a lot of time and it takes a lot of oxygen. Then we were cast with integrating two new characters into the show \u2014 [played by] Katrina Law and Gary Cole. And that also takes a lot of energy and a lot of oxygen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What h<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>ens is other things don\u2019t happen because of that. We didn\u2019t have really specific [character episodes]. Well, Kasie was involved [in one that was] in so many ways a Jimmy Palmer episode, [written by] Brian Dietzen. But we didn\u2019t get to do things with Knight as much as we would\u2019ve liked, Kasie, as much we would\u2019ve liked.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And David McCallum, I say to him all the time, \u201cyou are this magical pixie dust, wherever we put you, you\u2019re just this magical being who elevates every scene he\u2019s in with that David McCallum gravitas.\u201d So we would love to have more. We\u2019ll have a little more head space. At a bare minimum, you\u2019ll see him the same amount and hopefully we\u2019ll be able to, when we do see him, use him in a way that\u2019s more effective, much like Mark Harmon. The fans can probably tell when we put him in things and he\u2019s just another star on the show versus when we actually devote our energies to making a story more about him, and those are always fantastic. He\u2019s never let us down in 20 years.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>NCIS<\/em>, Season 20, TBA, CBS<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
