NCIS season 23 has some exciting things in store, and one detail may reveal that there is someone besides Gibbs that deserves a prequel spinoff. The new season will pick up where NCIS season 22 left off, with Parker having just learned that Carla had killed his father. In addition, NCIS season 23 will reveal even more about Parker’s background.
Among the major moments of NCIS season 23, Parker’s character will be looked at in depth as he tries to solve his father’s murder while the Lily mystery expands in the background. Mark Harmon’s Gibbs is the only NCIS character with a prequel so far. However, NCIS season 23 may prove that Parker is deserving of one even more.
NCIS Season 23 Will Show Flashbacks Of Parker’s Youth
In a big reveal by TV Insider in combination with NCIS‘ showrunner, Steven D. Binder, NCIS has announced that season 23 will show flashbacks of Parker’s youth. The flashbacks will showcase how Parker used to be a rough kid who got into trouble regularly. They will also reveal Parker’s turbulent relationship with his sister.
In addition, these flashbacks will tie into Parker’s current mindset as he battles his emotions following Carla’s act of vengeance against his father, Roman. Parker has always been a calmer character, especially in comparison to Gibbs or Franks, who are some of the tougher NCIS characters. These flashbacks will reveal a new, interesting side to him as he gets angrier.

Parker’s Flashbacks Make The Case For An NCIS: Parker Spinoff Even Stronger
Parker is such an interesting character, but NCIS has not really gone into a lot of detail, especially when he is compared to characters like Gibbs and Torres, who have received a lot more backstory. The NCIS season 23 flashbacks will change that. Parker will finally get the deep look into his character that he deserves.
But despite how much information we discover about Parker in NCIS season 23, there will still be a lot that hasn’t been revealed yet. As a result, these flashbacks open up the door to a potential NCIS: Parker spinoff while also making the case for the spinoff even stronger. Gibbs has a spinoff, and maybe Parker could get one too.
The flashbacks will reveal Parker’s days as a young boy, but we still will not know how Parker transitioned from the trouble-making kid to the articulate FBI agent, or why he decided to join NCIS. These flashbacks only add to the intrigue surrounding his character. They act as a strong basis for an NCIS: Parker spinoff.
