NCIS is a household name now but the show wasn’t always a fan favorite. During an interview, Harmon said the program was a hit overseas before it was popular in the US itself.

Harmon, who plays Leroy Jethro Gibbs in the show, did not want to an actor. He worked different jobs before getting into acting including merchandising, selling shoes, and a job at the radio station.
