NCIS: Hawaii - premiered on CBS on September 20, 2021. It is a spin-off of the long-running series NCIS and the fourth series in the NCIS franchise. The series was created by Christopher Silber, Jan Nash, and Matt Bosack who also serve as writers and executive producers alongside Larry Teng who directed multiple episodes. The series name was also officially changed to NCIS: Hawaiʻi, adding an ʻokina in an effort to reflect the official spelling used in the Hawaiian language.
NCIS: Hawai'i 's freshman season helped keep CBS as the most watched network for the 14th straight year. This marks the second time during its current winning streak that CBS has won the year while competing against a network that hosted both the well-watched Super Bowl and the Olympics. CBS currently hosts the most watched scripted series and drama (with NCIS averaging 11.1 million weekly viewers with Live+7 playback), the No. 1 comedy (Young Sheldon, 9.2 million), the No. 1 new series and comedy (Ghosts, 8.4 mil), the #1 new drama (NCIS: Hawai’i, whose 8.4 mil just edges out fellow freshman FBI: International‘s 8.3 mil), and the No. 1 news program (60 Minutes, 9.5 million).
During an episode of NCIS: Hawai'i titled "Spies, Part 2" fans gain a tie-in between the original NCIS and Jane Tennant. In the episode during one flashback moment, we learn that Maggie Shaw (Julie White) – who originally recruited Jane – is being moved to the Middle East, leaving Jane behind. However, before she heads off, she hands her mentee a business card for Gibbs, telling her: "Do you remember the NCIS agent who worked the operation in Kabul?" Jane replies: "With the Marine haircut, and that [eye roll] snarky sidekick?" to which Maggie reveals: "You made quite an impression on him." The latter goes on to reveal that Gibbs tried to steal Jane away from her and suggested she forward his details to Jane. The back of the card reads: "Rule 72: Always be open to new ideas" which leaves Jane puzzled, though Maggie assures her that he is a "good [person], and he can get you set up at FLETC".
NCIS Hawai'i came as the third spin off to the original series NCIS. NCIS began in 2003, and quickly became a very well known series with a strong fan base. The cast was lead by Mark Harmon.

Adam Jamal Craig as Dominic Vail (season 1), a probationary agent and a technical specialist who was assigned to OSP straight out of training. He is partnered with Kensi and seen as a sort of younger brother to the other team members; NCIS Los Angeles is left devastated when, following a period as a missing person, Dom is killed during his own rescue mission when he saves Sam from an unseen assailant.
Barrett Foa as Eric Beale (seasons 1–12), the team's Technical Operator and resident geek. He was not an undercover operative like his teammates until season seven, so was not firearms-trained until then. Beale is incredibly comfortable in the OSP much to the chagrin of his teammates who often become annoyed by his quirks such as leaving his surf board by their cars.

She oversees the OSP team while on assignments, providing them with a wide variety of support, ranging from advanced surveillance equipment to transport to foreign nations.

Unlike other administrators, he is not afraid to accompany the team into the field. Granger spent many years overseas as a field agent on many hazardous assignments before becoming an administrator. He is a long time friend and sometimes adversary of Hetty. During season 8, Granger is revealed to be suffering from an unknown ailment, most likely cancer, due to a lifetime of bad habits.

She is revealed to have a son named Derrick, who was taken by his father, criminal arms dealer Spencer Williams, when Williams fled the country for Mexico five years prior. At the end of season 9, she enacts an unsanctioned mission for the team to head into Mexico and retrieve Derrick. While the mission is ultimately successful (during which Mosley kills Williams), it comes at a costly price: Mosley's assistant Special Agent Harley Hidoko is killed, the rest of the team is grievously wounded, and the OSP is put under the microscope by D.C. officials. In season 10, after a drug cartel allied with Williams puts bounties on the team's heads, Mosley opts to take full responsibility for everything, resigns her post, and flees with her son into hiding.

NCIS: Hawai'i replaced New Orleans debuting in 2021, and NCIS: Sydney will be coming later on. NCIS: Sydney is being helmed by Australian-born Shane Brennan, creator of NCIS: LA. The series is expected to be released in 2023.
