Aside from this, we have no information about any injuries and other departing reasons for the show. When asked from him about leaving the show he said,
“We’re halfway there; Season 40 is when we’ll stop. It’s probably going to happen with Jimmy’s retirement … No, I have no idea.”
“The cool part is, if you asked our writing staff or the other actors on this show, you wouldn’t get any similar answers, because I don’t think any of us are focusing on the ending of the show, considering what the ratings still are and how much fun we’re still having.”
He again said:
“In my estimation, I’m like, ‘Let’s keep concentrating on those great arcs.’ If the time comes — because, as you said, everything will come to an end at some point — one of those arcs is going to lead us to the Promised Land and to the ‘NCIS’ ending. But if the ratings continue to be what they have been over the last year, I don’t see that happening imminently.”
