Ziva’s Successor: Ziva Is Replaced By ‘Bishop’
Ziva’s Successor: Ziva Is Replaced By ‘Bishop, Ziva, Cote de Pablo, will leave a big gap in NCIS and the show is already planning ahead on what may take place and who the successor might be. Ziva won’t be easy to replace on the CBS hit, but a search is underway.
The new female character, named Bishop, “is bright, educated, athletic, attractive, fresh-faced, focused and somewhat socially awkward. She has a mysterious mixture of analytic brilliance, fierce determination and idealism. She’s traveled extensively, but only feels comfortable at home,” according to an insider.
The start date is listed as mid-October, which puts the newbie’s arrival around January or February.
Prior to that, the show will “rotate some fun people” through the agency’s doors.
“The first two episodes are all about Ziva’s departure,” EP Gary Glasberg recently told TVLine. “And then in the third episode we introduce, for instance, a woman in her 50s who is a few days away from retirement and just needs to fill the desk time. She, in theory, knew Gibbs all the way back to the days of Mike Franks. So we’re going to bring in people like that and have some fun with different characters. And then, hopefully, when people are comfortable enough, one will walk in and be The One.”
In an interview recently with Latina magazine, Pablo spoke about her exit from the show saying: “It was not an easy decision, not one taken lightly. I feel like I am leaving my family. What I want to say most of all is thank you to the fans and to the people who have been so supportive of me and of the show, who have made the show the great success that it is.”
