While NCIS is on holiday hiatus, I bring you good cheer and merriment in the form of Bob Newhart. Nothing says “Happy Holidays” like sarcasm and deadpan humor! At least, that’s how it is in my family… Enough about me, on to the Naval news!

NCIS returns on January 11th with “Ships in the Night” which reunites Gibbs (Mark Harmon) with Special Agent Abigail Borin (Diane Neal). If you recall from last season, Borin has a team eerily similar to our favorite NCIS team. I’ve tossed in some promo-shots from that episode at the bottom of this post.

The BIG news, though, is that BOB NEWHART will be guest starring on the January 18th episode, titled “Recruit”! He will play Ducky’s (David McCallum) predecessor Doctor Walter Magnus. Dr Magnus accompanies the team in the quest to solve the murder of a petty officer during a campus recruitment fair.

No word yet on Larry, his brother Darryl, or his other brother Darryl… (Too corny??) Does anyone even know what that line is from anymore? Are you all too young?
