After making NCIS fans love her character, Cote de Pablo left the popular series and after a brief return, she disappeared from the spotlight.
Throughout television history, the major networks have worked tirelessly to figure out the key to creating successful TV shows. Since the mid-'90s, it has been clear that shows about law enforcement can be incredibly successful, no matter how accurate they may or may not be. A perfect example of a show that proves how successful crime procedural shows can be, NCIS is currently in the midst of airing its 20th season. After starting out as a spin-off, NCIS has become a ratings behemoth partly because it has introduced viewers to several popular characters and actors.

However, in 2016 de Pablo explained her reasoning for wanting to leave NCIS for the first time during a public Q & A. "Unfortunately because of political things and scripts not being good enough, I chose not to [return to NCIS]. Look, I love this character! I worked for eight years crafting Ziva and when I felt like the character wasn't being treated with the respect she deserved. They were going to send [Ziva] back to Israel to make her an unfortunate, miserable woman… and I didn’t think that was fair,” To the excitement of many fans, de Pablo later decided to return to NCIS for a recurring role during the 16th and 17th seasons. Before that return, de Pablo explained that she would only return to the franchise if her character's storyline was handled well.
