NCIS: Tony & Ziva isn't expected to premiere until fall 2025. However, Paramount+ released the first trailer for the police procedural series in the spring, which has undoubtedly upped the excitement for Tony and Ziva's return to TV. According to Deadline, the first footage from NCIS: Tony & Ziva has accumulated 93 million views within a week following its release on May 5, making it the most-watched trailer in NCIS's history (and the most-watched season 1 teaser trailer for a Paramount+ original show ever). The views are totaled across broadcast, social, and digital.

What The NCIS: Tony & Ziva Trailer's Success Means For The Spinoff

Fans Are Hyped About The Series

Based on the NCIS: Tony & Ziva trailer's impressive number of views, it's clear that many are eager for the Paramount+ show. Tony and Ziva were two of the most popular characters (and certainly the favorite romance) in the original series, so the excitement surrounding their spinoff makes sense. It has been almost 12 years since Tony and Ziva appeared onscreen together, after all. Now, fans get to see the duo raising their 12-year-old daughter, Tali, while facing a new threat.

NCIS: Tony & Ziva breaking the record for most-watched trailer in the history of the NCIS universe (and setting a Paramount+ record) also bodes well for the spinoff's success. If millions have watched and been intrigued by the teaser, they'll likely tune in to the show's premiere. Hopefully, the pilot episode will convince them to continue watching, but NCIS: Tony & Ziva still has a promising future based on its trailer's viewership alone.

The NCIS Franchise Continues To Thrive More Than 2 Decades After Its Creation

Of course, it's difficult to compare the success of the NCIS: Tony & Ziva teaser video to older NCIS shows because the franchise dates back to pre-social media times. It also helps that CBS aired the trailer, despite Paramount+ serving as the show's home. Still, reaching almost 100 million views indicates the world of NCIS is alive and well. If NCIS: Tony & Ziva is a triumph upon its premiere in fall 2025, perhaps CBS/Paramount+ will order more spinoffs (and more renewals), meaning the franchise will continue for many years to come.
