Three memorable episodes will air back-to-back-to-back on September 25.
NCIS made its TV debut on September 23, 2003, in the US. After 20 years and more than 450 episodes, NCIS is still one of the most watched television programs ever, with fans eagerly anticipating NCIS season 21. In honor of all of this, CBS has proclaimed Monday, September 25, NCIS Day, marking the 20th anniversary of the crime drama with a mini-marathon.
Starting at 8 pm ET/PT on September 25, CBS is airing back-to-back-to-back episodes of NCIS. The night starts off with the series premiere episode of NCIS at 8 pm ET/PT, then airs the NCIS season 2 finale “SWAK” at 9 pm ET/PT and concludes with a popular episode from NCIS season 19, “All Hands,” at 10 pm ET/PT.
NCIS season 21 would most likely have debuted on September 25 if the writers’ and performers’ strikes against the studios in search of a new labor agreement hadn’t caused the season to be postponed.
The third season of NCIS: Hawai’i and the main NCIS series are both currently off the air for the fall television season, therefore CBS appears to be relying on NCIS repeats to cover its Monday primetime roster going forward. The new offshoot NCIS: Sydney, which will debut on CBS on Monday, November 13, was able to finish episodes before the strikes, so fans will be treated to some fresh NCIS material this year.
There are additional perks being offered in relation to NCIS’s 20th anniversary. Fans can get 20% off NCIS merchandise with the code NCIS20 at the NCIS Storefront for ParamountShop.com through October 2. QR discount codes will be shown throughout the NCIS Day marathon that viewers can access.
Some social media feature are also planned, including the launch of an @NCISverse handle across social media platforms to give fans a more immersive experience. Plus, CBS is launching their own version of the NCIS Bandium app on Facebook and Instagram that will give fans sneak peeks and early access to trailers and clips for NCIS: Sydney and more.
The NCIS Day marathon requires access to CBS, which is available in a few different methods, in order to be seen. There are several options for live TV streaming that include CBS, including Fubo, Hulu with Live TV, and YouTube TV. You may also use a TV antenna or a standard pay-TV membership package. If you combine your Paramount Plus with Showtime subscription, you may also watch your local CBS channel live.
