Are there any other stars who YOU think gave Gibbs and his team a run for their money? Let us know below, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 10 Stars You Forgot Were on The X-Files - th-cam.com/video/2VoGjycD5Yw/w-d-xo.html
Because Robert Wagner's casting as Tony's father is well known, especially given how Michael Weatherly played Wagner in the telemovie about Natalie Wood.
For older viewers of NCIS, having Ralph Waite from the Waltons playing Jackson Gibbs was a memorable appearance or having Bob Newhart playing Ducky’s predecessor as M.E for NCIS was memorable
Probably my favourite episode is S02E07, Call Of Silence, with Charles Durning, I love the scene where Dinozzo pulls Durning's tie aside to show his Medal of Honor and the marines snap to attention and salute.
NCIS was enriched by its stellar line up of outstanding guest stars. Gina Rowlands as Joann Fielding, Gibbs' mother-in law, was wonderful. So were the other guest stars mentioned in this thread. And Muse Watson as Mike Franks played perfeclty against Mark Harmon's Leory Jethro Gibbs. But my absolute favorite was Charles Durning as the WWII vet with delayed PTSD. I also enjoyed Drew Carey's guest turn. Factoid: I worked with Drew during his pre-fame restaurant days in Cleveland. Really a great guy!
Even at a young age, Millie could fake an amazingly convincing American accent. I was also surprised to see her in a small role in a 2015 Modern Family episode.
I can see Millie auditioning for a different episode, but when the casting agents saw how good she was they saved her for the evil twist episode that needed a really good actress.
When I first saw her on Stranger Things I immediately remembered her from NCIS. Her performance made her one of my two favorite guest stars - the other is Charles Durning. Learning MBB's character is a psychopath is a dark twist that might have been only an OKish ending but MBB's portrayal made it hit really hard.
One of the best reoccurring roles on NCIS is of Agent Ned Dorneget, played by Matt Jones, who would appear on Breaking Bad , Mom, and other movies and shows. Another great reoccurring character is FBI Agent Tobias TC Fornell, played by Joe Spano.
Pam Dawber, Mark Harmon’s real life wife, appeared in several episodes. Their son played A younger Gibbs in several flashback scenes. Then there were all the former Star Trek actors who made appearances, including Jeri Ryan, Marina Sirtis, Tim Russ, and Connor Trinnear.
I tell you the episode mentioned at #5 is one of my favorites. Not just because of the star mentioned, but it mixed drama and humor ever so perfectly in that episode
If you have Ion on your cable or We you can watch it on both. Ion on Sunday and We on Saturday. They're my go to when I can't find something else. Also Paramount +(CBS streaming service)is showing all seasons.
@@ryanclark7962 Whatever. It's just that between reality shows and the drama series that have 15+ seasons or more and/or are procedural dramas, network TV has no other options.
Always amusing when the title is "you forgot were on" yet we get "fans remember fondly" in the video. That said, having Firefly clips makes up for it. Some you missed: Jeri Ryan - known for Trek and Leverage was Gibbs' second ex-wife. Charles Durning - played a WWII Medal of Honor recipient with survivor's guilt Terry O'Quinn - old friend of Gibbs who is hallucinating Mike Farrell - of MASH fame played a judge who was doing the Star Chamber Hal Holbrook - season 4's 'Escaped' French Stewart - played a convicted serial killer in two episodes Glen Powell - played a marine with PTSD 10 years before he was in Top Gun Maverick Adam Baldwin - played the commander of a special forces team Danica McKellar - of The Wonder Years played a murder witness who gets close to McGee Kelly Hu - played a North Korean assassin in a crossover with the LA spinoff Lance Hendrickson - our favorite 'artificial person' from Aliens played a sheriff in season 6 SXSW Cherlyl Ladd - played a girlfriend of Ducky until she turned out to be a serial killer.
Troian Bellisario, Spencer from Pretty Little Liars, daughter of the show's creator, and Sean Murray's half-sister appeared twice on the show as McGee's sister Sarah.
There was this one episode that there was a girl who was hiding secrets in paintings. An episode which brought sharp-shooting Ziva perfectly in action.
The only one I disagree with on this list is Jamie Lee Curtis. I absolutely loved it when she was on the show, and I had always wished she could've stayed around longer.
Should do one of these for CSI and its various spin-offs if they haven’t already. Appearances have included the likes of: -Michael B. Jordan -Jeremy Renner -Idris Elba -John Krasinski To name but a few.
You should do a list of NCIS Daytime Soap Stars guest appearance,lots of soap actors/ actresses have guest starred including the late great Billy Miller ❤
One of the best deeply emotional performances by a guest star was by Christopher LLoyd who played the WW 2 veteran who was trying to prove that he was a crewman aboard the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbour so that his ashes cold be interred with his shipmates on the wreck of the ship after his death, ------ There was also another veteran role by Vince McGill, who Im most familiar with as Det. Koirshak on Rizzolli and Islkes, the series that NCIS actress Sasha Alexander starred in.
Also there has been one actor from NCIS that went on to star in a few seasons of shameless which is Kate who appears as a professor that lip begins sleeping with while attending college
I remember Zac Efron being on NCIS. I remember watching that episode when it came on and thinking Zac was cute. And then seeing him in HSM a few days later.
And a few more actresses, the late Jessica Walter as Judith McKnight of the Sherlock Holmes Consortium in a couple of episodes, and Cheryl Ladd as a short-lived romantic interest of Ducky's. Also there was Torri Higgenson as medical examiner Jordan Hampton, another brief romantic interest of Ducky's, and Jessica Steen, who appeared in 6 episodes as the now deceased NCIS Special Agent Paula Cassidy. Interestingly the two actresses played the same character on different episodes of Stargate SG-1 as Dr. Elizsabeth Weir ---- I also enjoy theepisodes featuring Diane Neal as CGIS agent Abigail Borin and Susanna Thompson as Gibbs' romantic interest Hollis Mann.
What about Charles Durning in the Season 2 Episode Call of Silence? He was nominated for an Emmy for the role as Cpl Ernie Yost, USMC WWII veteran and MOH recipient for his actions on Iwo Jima.
Susanna Thompson as Lt. Col. Hollis Mann. Diane Neal as CGIS Agent Abigail Borin. Eli David, Massad Director and Ziva's dad. Tamara Taylor as Agent Cassie Yates. Liza Lapira as Agent Michelle Lee.
I loved Tyler RItter as Abby's brother Luca. He is so much like his father, John RItter. If you closed your eyes you would think it was John talking. THe other would be French Stewart as serial killer/furrier Paul Triff.
Before Pam was on, Jamie was my favorite guest star. I also think it's interesting that two guys who have played doctors were terrorists on the show. Before he was on Chicago Med, Dominic Rains played the guy that killed Special Agent Paula Cassidy; and after he was on Bones, Pej Vahdat played the guy that kidnapped Director Vance.
Millie Bobby Brown and Charles Durning were my two favorite guest stars of the entire series. And Durning won an Emmy for his performance! When MBB's character turned into her true psychopath persona at the end it was startling and even bit frightening.
Danica McKellar (Wonder Years), season 2 Rizwan Manji (Schitt's Creek), SWAK, season 2 Mariette Hartley in same episode Armand Assante, season 4/5 Gena Rowlands, season 7 Scott Grimes, season 8 JoBeth Williams, season 8 Cameron Monaghan, season 8 Richard Schiff seasons 9/10 that's just a few lol
This is a great list and need a follow up for all the actors missed. However Sterling K Brown did not play the clown in the episode mentioned. It was his character's girlfriend
I know Millie was in NCIS, but I didn’t know her role was evil😱😱. I think I need to watch her episode as well the episodes featuring Sean Astin and Sterling K. Brown.
Millie Bobby Brown probably gave the most chilling peformance. but there are two other potential lists - Recurring characters such as Delilah (my favourite) Mann, Borin, thosee you wish had more appearences, (too many to list here) and simply powerful/memorable appearences, Millie Bobby Brown and Christopher Lloyd would top that list.

Charles Durning and Drew Carey
Charles Durning was awesome in the episode about th
Charles Durning was awesome in seson 2, episode 7's Call of Silence. Especially when you realize he was part of the Malmedy Massacere during WW2
Melinda McGraw as Diane Gibbs Fernelle Sterling and Juliette Angelo as Emily Fernelle
*NCIS isn’t talked about much especially when it comes to guest stars. And DAMN they had some good ones.*
They have had some killer guest stars. ❤
How could you possibly forget the reoccurring role of Anthony DiNozzo Senior, always a joy to behold.
So true or Gibbs father.
Because Robert Wagner's casting as Tony's father is well known, especially given how Michael Weatherly played Wagner in the telemovie about Natalie Wood.
@@tiadaidnot a guest star anyone could forget about 😊
So true! Loved Dinozzo senior!
Because nobody forgot about him.
For older viewers of NCIS, having Ralph Waite from the Waltons playing Jackson Gibbs was a memorable appearance or having Bob Newhart playing Ducky’s predecessor as M.E for NCIS was memorable
Best one I thought was Charles Durning, 2nd season, though the picks to play the Fathers was amazing Ralph Waite, Robert Wagner
Yeah! Literally had my memory sensor brought back to childhood and I said "damn". We had it broadcast in the UK on Channel 4 😊
@@fayetaylor919 I believe Durning won an Emmy for that performance.
What about Jon Cryer? The Two and a Half Men star played a doctor that saved Gibbs’ life in the season 13 premiere.
dr. Taft!
Probably my favourite episode is S02E07, Call Of Silence, with Charles Durning, I love the scene where Dinozzo pulls Durning's tie aside to show his Medal of Honor and the marines snap to attention and salute.
That is one of my favorite episodes.
Charles Durning was a real war hero!
One of my fave episodes too. ❤
Durning got an Emmy nomination for that role. And it was well deserved. That's one of my very favorite episodes.
@@donjones4719 Durning should have won that Emmy!

Don’t forget Rene Auberjonois & John Billingsley!
Also Susan Diol
Others I can think of: Alex Kingston, Pam Dawbar, Dew Carey, Jerri Ryan, Robert Wagner, Sean Astin
Marina Sirtis as the head of Mosad?
Gibbs’ Father, the incomparable Ralph Waite!
I love that episode where he first appears and it's Pa Walton! The team's excitement that Gibbs has a father makes it one of my favorites!
Ralph Waite of The Waltons, right? 😀
@@AdultThirdCultureKid1971 Correct. He played John Walton Sr.
Colin Hanks - he really did a great job at turning his character from one persona to another.
I was expecting Sean Astin to have a spot on the list, along with Misha Collins getting an honorable mention.
I tell you the episode mentioned at #5 is one of my favorites. Not just because of the star mentioned, but it mixed drama and humor ever so perfectly in that episode
Millie Bobby Brown was absolutely chilling and amazing in that episode! Her mother knew she was a sociopath so......
I got to watch that episode again.
You wonder if some of the regular actors on the show were thinking: "Oh damn! She's a better actor than I am"!
THere was another great performance in that episode from Bronson PInchot, who played an imprisioned sociopath who the mother asked for advice.
Christopher Llyod isnt on this list! His guest performance had me in tears.
Great scott
Cheryl Ladd, Lindsay Wagner, Taye Diggs, Ben Vereen
The first time I saw the episode See no evil I choked up abigail breslin was amazing in it
yes! When I first saw the episode I was blown away by how incredible she was!
And the final reveal just made everything so much more gut-wrenching.
It may be a small role but it is my favourite role of hers
You guys really missed A LOT of great actors on this list. Part 2 needs to happen!
Great List, but how about Patricia Richardson as McGee's mother-in-law?
This makes me want to re-watch NCIS from season 1 to present
It's on Netflix 1-15
If you have Ion on your cable or We you can watch it on both. Ion on Sunday and We on Saturday. They're my go to when I can't find something else. Also Paramount +(CBS streaming service)is showing all seasons.
@@fayetaylor919unfortunately not in Germany :(
I have it on DVD and I do that every few years. 😊👍
Abigail Breslin slayed her part. She was amazing!
And the episode with Charles Durning never fails to make me cry.
Msmojo and Watchmojo should do more NCIS videos. It’s one of the longest running series in television history.
Law and Order SVU has two or three seasons on NCIS.
@@fromthehaven94they said ONE of the longest not the longest.
@@ryanclark7962 Whatever. It's just that between reality shows and the drama series that have 15+ seasons or more and/or are procedural dramas, network TV has no other options.
One of the absolute greatest shows ever.
Always amusing when the title is "you forgot were on" yet we get "fans remember fondly" in the video.
That said, having Firefly clips makes up for it. Some you missed:
Jeri Ryan - known for Trek and Leverage was Gibbs' second ex-wife.
Charles Durning - played a WWII Medal of Honor recipient with survivor's guilt
Terry O'Quinn - old friend of Gibbs who is hallucinating
Mike Farrell - of MASH fame played a judge who was doing the Star Chamber
Hal Holbrook - season 4's 'Escaped'
French Stewart - played a convicted serial killer in two episodes
Glen Powell - played a marine with PTSD 10 years before he was in Top Gun Maverick
Adam Baldwin - played the commander of a special forces team
Danica McKellar - of The Wonder Years played a murder witness who gets close to McGee
Kelly Hu - played a North Korean assassin in a crossover with the LA spinoff
Lance Hendrickson - our favorite 'artificial person' from Aliens played a sheriff in season 6 SXSW
Cherlyl Ladd - played a girlfriend of Ducky until she turned out to be a serial killer.
Happy thursday afternoon, Phoebe, and what a great top this was. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
Troian Bellisario, Spencer from Pretty Little Liars, daughter of the show's creator, and Sean Murray's half-sister appeared twice on the show as McGee's sister Sarah.

The only one I disagree with on this list is Jamie Lee Curtis. I absolutely loved it when she was on the show, and I had always wished she could've stayed around longer.
I loved Jamie Lee Curtis as well. Thought she was great.
Me too!! Her chemistry with Harmon is so good!!
i was hoping Drew Carey would be on the list
In case he hasn't already been mentioned, Taye Diggs played a former Marine sniper suffering from PTSD. Excellent episode
Christopher Lloyd in Hallowed Ground: The Arizona. Series 17 ep 20. Breathtaking episode
The real life director of NCIS, Omar Lopez, has an uncredited cameo about 12 minutes into that episode
Finally one of NCIS.
I was so confused when I first saw Colin Hanks. I thought he might’ve been related to Sean Murray as well - somehow 🤣🤣🤣
yeah, I got that resemblance with Sean but then if you look at Tom's earlier movies like "Big" you realise the resemblance ot Colin.
@@andrewmurray1550 Colin definitely looks and sounds like his father from those early days.
Should do one of these for CSI and its various spin-offs if they haven’t already. Appearances have included the likes of:
-Michael B. Jordan
-Jeremy Renner
-Idris Elba
-John Krasinski
To name but a few.
Charles Durning was wonderful. NCIS has been on too long to only have a singular top ten episode. Parts 2 and maybe 3 next?
Ravi Kapoor - "Bug" on Crossing Jordan. Also, Steve Valentine - Nigel on Crossing Jordan.
I'm so happy to finally see a top dedicated to NCIS 🤩🤩🤩

Also there has been one actor from NCIS that went on to star in a few seasons of shameless which is Kate who appears as a professor that lip begins sleeping with while attending college
Hope for an eventual part 2 please?
I remember Zac Efron being on NCIS. I remember watching that episode when it came on and thinking Zac was cute. And then seeing him in HSM a few days later.
Jamie Lee Curtis and Mark Harmon did a great job of working together on NCIS.
Bob Newhart as Ducky’s predecessor…
Michelle Obama, Jon Cryer, Terry O'Quinn, Sean Astin and many more
With Abigail Breslin u should have also mention David Keith.
What about Glen Powell or Misha Collins? Scott Wolf is another great one too.
And a few more actresses, the late Jessica Walter as Judith McKnight of the Sherlock Holmes Consortium in a couple of episodes, and Cheryl Ladd as a short-lived romantic interest of Ducky's. Also there was Torri Higgenson as medical examiner Jordan Hampton, another brief romantic interest of Ducky's, and Jessica Steen, who appeared in 6 episodes as the now deceased NCIS Special Agent Paula Cassidy.

Should do something similar for house- lots of amazing guest stars too
What about Charles Durning in the Season 2 Episode Call of Silence? He was nominated for an Emmy for the role as Cpl Ernie Yost, USMC WWII veteran and MOH recipient for his actions on Iwo Jima.
Ki Hong Lee from the Maze Runner episode bulletproof
I’m very glad that you know what I’ve forgotten MsMojo
More NCIS content please!!
David Ramsey (Diggle from Arrow) was also in an early episode of NCIS as an Agent Afloat
NCIS used to be so good. I miss when it was worth watching.
Susanna Thompson as Lt. Col. Hollis Mann. Diane Neal as CGIS Agent Abigail Borin. Eli David, Massad Director and Ziva's dad. Tamara Taylor as Agent Cassie Yates. Liza Lapira as Agent Michelle Lee.
Jessica Steen as Paula Cassidy. Rena Softer as Margaret Allison Hart. Diane Neal as Abby Borin.David
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO MORE NCIS TOP TEN/TWENTY VIDEOS
there was an episode where Misha Colins stole an SUV with a kidnapping victim in the back (he didn't notice her until she woke up)
Gibbs: "Do I know you from somewhere.....some bar on in the middle of the desert....." Billy Dee. "That was a long, long time ago......".
I loved Tyler RItter as Abby's brother Luca. He is so much like his father, John RItter. If you closed your eyes you would think it was John talking.
THe other would be French Stewart as serial killer/furrier Paul Triff.

I remember Jamie Lee- Curtis being a regular guest star.
I also believe David Deluse was on one episode.
Drew Carey, Robert Wagner, Jon Cryer, Adam Ferrara, Cameron Monaghan from shamless
I think the best guest star on NCIS will have to go to Scott Wolf of party of 5 fame. His few episodes were amazing.
For those Band of Brothers fans you have Scott Grimes, Frank John Hughes, Kirk Acevado, Rene L Moreno and of course already mentioned Colin Hanks.
Danica McKellar (Wonder Years), season 2
Rizwan Manji (Schitt's Creek), SWAK, season 2
Mariette Hartley in same episode
Armand Assante, season 4/5
Gena Rowlands, season 7
Scott Grimes, season 8
JoBeth Williams, season 8
Cameron Monaghan, season 8
Richard Schiff seasons 9/10
that's just a few lol
How did ya not mention the biggest and the most important one? Troian Bellisario guest starred in this show and so did Max Alder.
Dude....DiNozzo Senior should be in the list 😁
This is a great list and need a follow up for all the actors missed. However Sterling K Brown did not play the clown in the episode mentioned. It was his character's girlfriend
Ralph Waite was in the same episode of Billy Dee Williams? John freaking Walton!!
He was in lots of episodes. He first came on in Season 6, in Gibbs's hometown.
If you look at the guest star list for season 1, its pretty much half the cast of Lost, a year before that show started.
Susanna Thompson (of Arrow & ST Voyager) as Lt. Col. Hollis Mann.
There was Also Erin Cahill who was Jen The Pink Ranger In Power Rangers Time Force
Did I just see Sean Astin at the tail end of this video? You probably should have mentioned him honorably.
You missed Bob Newhart!
I know Millie was in NCIS, but I didn’t know her role was evil😱😱. I think I need to watch her episode as well the episodes featuring Sean Astin and Sterling K. Brown.
Millie Bobby Brown probably gave the most chilling peformance. but there are two other potential lists - Recurring characters such as Delilah (my favourite) Mann, Borin, thosee you wish had more appearences, (too many to list here) and simply powerful/memorable appearences, Millie Bobby Brown and Christopher Lloyd would top that list.
Millie definitely deserves the credits! That twist ending gave me chills!
Corey Stoll was also the main character in: The Strain
Charles Durning and his confession about beating his friend to death
When Badger from breaking bad came on i was howling...he went from NCIS agent to drug dealer...depth hahaha
HOW DID I NOT NOTICE CAM 😮😮😮😮
seeing keith david in ncis new orleans was a shock to me lol
Famous actors in the tv series "Castle" next please
What about Christopher Lloyd who gave an incredible performance?
While Robert Wagner is my favorite, Christopher Lloyd is my most memorable. The whole episode is moving.
What about Diane Neal as Agent Bourne? Or Danica McKellar in season 2 of NCIS as a Magee crush and witness?
Disappointed Pam Dawber (Mark Harmon's real-life wife) wasn't on this list.
Corey Stoll was also on The Strain. Surprised they left that out.
You showed 'Samwise Gamgee' himself towards the end but Didn't include him in the list?!
Blasphemy aside, I enjoy your videos.
They'd left out Colin Trineer and John Billingsley.
Gena Rowlands as Shannon’s mother
Christopher Lloyd was the best guest star. What a preformance!
what about Diane Neal who played CGIS Agent Borin
