NCIS Showrunner Explains Why McGee's Kids Haven't Appeared Onscreen
NCIS showrunner Steven D. Binder has addressed the long-standing mystery of why Timothy McGee (Sean Murray) and his wife Delilah Fielding's (Margo Harshman) twins have never made a physical appearance in the series. There has been a lot of speculation about the McGee twins, Morgan and Johnny, despite their birth in season 15, episode 9, "Ready or Not." The episode aired in 2017, and they have not been present as of NCIS season 22.
During a recent interview with TVLine, Binder explained that Covid-19 protocols were the main reason for their lack of on-screen appearances. With restrictions preventing young children from being on set, a decision was made to keep the twins off-screen. Binder elaborated that when Jimmy Palmer's daughter Victoria appeared in 2022, she had to be aged to fit into the story. Read his response below:
Even when we brought Jimmy Palmers daughter on [in February 2022], we had to magically age her a little bit.
