It has been three years since NCIS’s Jimmy Palmer (Brian Dietzen) accidentally spilled the beans that he passed the medical examiner’s test, and tonight, Dietzen fans can celebrate when the actor gets another Palmer-centric episode. When a body is found in pieces at an unmanned aerial vehicle testing site, Palmer searches for clues. Exhausted and too busy to hire an assistant, trying to determine if the death was accidental or murder while managing a two-person workload by himself presents an extra challenging situation for Palmer.
If that is not enough to make fans happy, the ”Welcome Back, Lorimar” trend continues. Following a too-brief guest appearance by Patrick Duffy (Bobby Ewing on Lorimar’s DALLAS) last week as Retired Navy Lieutenant Commander Jack Briggs, another Lorimar fan favorite, William R. Moses (Cole Gioberti, FALCON CREST), guest stars tonight as Edison Geary.
Guest stars on tonight’s episode, “Sound Off,” are Katie LeClerc (SWITCHED AT BIRTH), David Burke, Peter Graham, Amir Korangy, Adam William Zastrow, Timothy Hornor, Danny Brown and Mo Beatty. “Sound Off” was written by Lisa Di Trolio and directed by William Webb.
NCIS airs tonight (January 21) at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on CBS in the U.S. and on Global TV in Canada.
