The long-awaited NCIS: Sydney season 2 premiere has been delayed by CBS. The NCIS spinoff is the first show in the NCIS franchise to occur outside of American territory, as it follows the unlikely partnership between the Australian Federal Police and NCIS officers. The NCIS: Sydney cast includes American NCIS agents, Mackey and DeShawn, as they learn to manage their culture shock with their fellow Australian colleagues. Key to the show so far has been the friendly competition between the NCIS agents and AFP officers as they bicker over jurisdiction.
NCIS: Sydney season 2 is set to continue the shocking season 1 finale, which featured an unlikely betrayal from the NCIS/AFP’s task force’s very own Richard Rankin, their superior officer. The delay from CBS comes as disappointing news after the frustrating cliffhanger left many questions unanswered. Fortunately, the delay will not be indefinite, and the unlikely duos featured in NCIS: Sydney will return early in the 2025 television season.

NCIS: Sydney season 2 was expected to be released on January 31, 2025, about a year after the season 1 finale. However, an update via TVLine has revealed that CBS is delaying the season 2 premiere due to an unnamed special airing the same day. The special will likely be an hour long, which would explain why the mystery show is taking over NCIS: Sydney’s Friday time slot for the evening. Fortunately, the unnamed special will not affect any other shows, and S.W.A.T. and Fire Country’s air time on January 31 will not be affected.
