By Matt Webb Mitovich / April 11 2019, 11:44 AM PDT
Abiding by Gibbs’ Rule no. 5 — “You don’t waste good” — CBS has renewed NCIS aka TV’s most watched drama for a 17th season.
“NCIS has been a global juggernaut for almost two decades,” CBS Entertainment president Kelly Kahl said in a statement. “Its viewers are clearly the most loyal of any drama on television. They are passionate about the characters, the plot lines, and the storytelling.
“We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the gifted production team, and the cast, led by the extraordinary Mark Harmon,” Kahl continued. “We are delighted that the show will remain a lynchpin of the CBS schedule this coming season.”
Season to date, NCIS is averaging 12.2 million total weekly viewers in Live+Same Day numbers, ranking as TV’s most watched drama and placing second among all scripted programs (behind only The Big Bang Theory); that audience swells to nearly 16.1 million with Live+7 DVR playback folded in. In the demo, the procedural averages a 1.3 in Live+SD, tying it for fifth among all broadcast dramas; with DVR playback, that rating hits 2.0.
CBS previously renewed for 2019-20 Criminal Minds (for a 15th and final season), FBI (TV’s second most watched drama), God Friended Me, Magnum P.I., Young Sheldon, Mom and The Neighborhood.tvline.com/2019/04/11/ncis-renewed-for-season-17/

I think it largely depends on Mark Harmon. If the ratings stay up, TPTB will renew it until Mark is ready to quit.

His colorful team includes an MIT grad who’s brilliant with computers (Sean Murray), a talented forensic psychologist (Maria Bello), a charismatic former solo undercover agent (Wilmer Valderrama), a medical examiner (David McCallum), and more.
Donald P. Bellisario created the series, and executive produces with Frank Cardea, Steven D. Binder, Chas. Floyd Johnson, Mark Horowitz, Mark Harmon, and Scott Williams. The show is produced by Belisarius Productions in association with CBS Television Studios.
“NCIS has been a global juggernaut for almost two decades,” said Kelly Kahl, the president of CBS Entertainment. “Its viewers are clearly the most loyal of any drama on television. They are passionate about the characters, the plot lines, and the storytelling. We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the gifted production team, and the cast, led by the extraordinary Mark Harmon. We are delighted that the show will remain a lynchpin of the CBS schedule this coming season.”
The show averaged 16 million in delayed viewership and is the highest-rated drama and second-highest-rated series in television, behind CBS’ “The Big Bang Theory.” It is also the seventh longest-running primetime scripted series of all time.
