As the NCIS franchise approaches its 1,000th episode milestone, fans are eagerly anticipating what's in store for the latest romance on the show. Brian Dietzen, who plays Dr. Jimmy Palmer, and Katrina Law, who portrays Jessica Knight, have finally come together on screen, with their relationship affectionately dubbed 'Knight in Shining Palmer' by fans.
In a recent interview, Dietzen hinted that the couple may face some challenges ahead, emphasizing that love is not always a smooth journey and can involve unexpected twists and turns. The introduction of Russell Wong as Jessica's father in an upcoming episode adds a new dynamic to their relationship, with Law teasing that her character's father is a significant figure in the NCIS world.
While Wong's character may pose obstacles for Jimmy and Jessica, there is hope that the couple will emerge stronger from the experience. However, with the show's 1,000th episode on the horizon, showrunner David North has teased that a beloved character will find themselves in grave danger, hinting at a crossover event involving multiple NCIS franchises.
Despite the challenges ahead, NCIS fans can look forward to nostalgic nods to the show's past, with the co-showrunners promising Easter eggs and references for longtime viewers to discover.
