Most would agree NCIS is a great show. It has a huge fan base and is one of the most-watched television dramas. However, the shows following hasnt translated into an Emmy award (at least not yet). Heres how the NCIS cast feels about the series being passed over for an Emmy after all these years.

Mark Harmon told Entertainment Tonight host Kevin Frazier he knows how fortunate he is to be part of NCIS. Harmon said he tells actors who decide to leave the show that theyre leaving a special place with a lot of support. He also reminds them theyre leaving one of the top shows in the world:

And if we can talk about awards or talk about whatever, the longevity of this show, I tell young actors all the time. I say, Hey, are you gonna leave? Thats great. Good luck. And I said, But you come here, and you have a chance to work every day with friends who are going to support you. You work with a tremendous safety net underneath you here that nobodys going to let you fail. And I said, And theyre paying you. And, oh yeah, by the way, its the number one show in the world.

Harmon told Frazier the people who are part of NCIS genuinely enjoy being there. He says its a family environment where everyone comes together to just chat and talk about whats going on in their personal lives. I think its great that people love it, and people enjoy it. And we all sit here and laugh and talk about our day and how we approach it. But theres a bunch of professionals here who know what theyre doing. And I dont know that this kind of thing in network television is going to happen again, Harmon said.

Frazier asked the cast how they feel about doing such great work but never receiving an Emmy. This show has done Emmy-caliber work, but youve never won an Emmy. When you think about that, does it bother you? he asked. Rocky Carroll, who plays NCIS Director Leon Vance, says he isnt bothered about the lack of an Emmy when he thinks about the fate of shows that have one multiple Emmy awards. I think of all the shows that have won multiple Emmys that are not on the air, that have run their course. And, you know, I say that jokingly, but there are a lot of shows that have stood on the podium and accepted Emmys, but theyre in the Where are They Now? file now. And were still here, Carroll said.

Brian Dietzen (Jimmy Palmer) says not receiving an Emmy doesnttake away from the fact that theyre a talented cast:

I do think that 16 years, longevity doesnt preclude it from having some pretty awesome performances. I mean, whether its guest stars or some of the people in these chairs. There have been some amazing performances this year. The fact that we dont get recognized for awards season, its a bummer. I think wed all love to see that happen and whatnot, but that doesnt mean that the good work isnt happening right here. The fact that the people who do watch this show, see that and appreciate it, I think thats kind of what we hang our hat on.
