Abby's Final Goodbye To Gibbs | NCIS (Mark Harmon, Pauley Perrette)

10 years ago when I was stuck in hospital for 5 days due to a spot on my leg...one of the only things to watch was an NCIS marathon on at the time. The Abbey // Mallard back & forth was one of the more fun bits to see.

[@barnesfamily1128]

Have watched all of the NCIS shows from the beginning. Cried when all of the actors die, fell in love. But the worst tears where Abby left, then Gibbs, and the Ducky. Still LOVE that show. When that show comes to then end that will just be heartbreaking. Will for ever be the best cop show out there.

This probably sounds childish, but my mom loved Abby, so I grew to like the show & Abby too. Now I'm sad because all I have left is memories, pictures & re-runs.

[@auntisthenes2754]

Abby was cool, the actress is banged-up and damaged. She wasn't entirely wrong if Harmon's dog created trouble on set. She's oh so sweet but not a dog-lover. Seing that she could have had the dog killed, things went cold between those two. The irony wasn't lost on Gibbs's last season. He blows up his carreer for a dog. On the surface. He entrusts the dog to his favourite child, son of a of a spy..Abby just poofs wherever she goes. Keeping a dog for the story made her sympathetic, she's scared shitless in truth.

[@Azraell01]

Hurts knowing the rift between her and Harmon lead to her desire to leave the show.

[@gruntforever7437]

final straw but she was thinking of it anyway. Just shows how good an actress she was being able to portray someone really loving another character when in fact she did not like the actor at all

[@victorriceroni8455]

Being able to find out what happens behind the scenes is truly a two edged sword. We become enamored of the characters and by extension the actors. Then whether by politics or personality conflicts we find that the real people can't live up to the characters that portray them.

[@CrimeScenes.]

It does change perspective - doesn’t it?

[@annkynaston3605]

Do you mean the real people can't live up to the characters they potray, because,if so Sean Murray who acts McGee and Bryan Dietzen who acts Palmer haven't disappointed yet.

[@paulap4032]

This was so disappointing. Regardless of their personal differences, they owed us fans a better send off. Waving from across the street was just such a let down. And, shame on Harmon for not showing up for the Ducky tribute.

[@Xirtamani]

Basically you're saying she owed you and other fans going near a man and playing friendly with, that she was fucking afraid off? Also, if they had seen each other, prior behaviour would indicate she'd hug him. So, nah man, that's not the way.

Zeva was my favourite character and she had brilliant storylines., never was a fan of mark Harmon though.

This was one of our most favorite series but honestly I feel like it went on for too long.

You are correct,IMO, the series should have ended many seasons before this, they sacrificed all the main characters and the integrity of the series by trying to wring out every ounce of play time they could get,they should be ashamed of themselves.

[@landonsrt9587]

It’s kinda sad that she left like that because they couldn’t stand to be around one another. I’ve kept watching but the writers checked out long ago. You can tell who the bad guy is within 10 mins.
