Wow, hard to think about NCIS without Abby Sciuto! Abby is always there with the right answer or a hug, but after this season, Pauley Perrette, the actress who plays Abby is leaving the show! And this time it's for real. For years there have been rumors about her leaving the show to start a skin care line, but that's not the truth. This is the truth. Pauley is leaving to do other things. Here is her statement:
I can't imagine NCIS without Abby, can you? Will you still watch? After this season, the only original members left will be Mark Harmon and David McCallum! (Sean Murray and Brian Dietzen came on later in the first season)
