David wrote that farewell episode so beautifully, and we know that a lot of our fans are wondering where he is, if he’s alive and well, so we felt it was really important to place him in a space and time for this show.” Mark has explained why his son didn’t take on the role of Young Gibbs as he did on the main show NCIS.
