NCIS: LA is set to air its final ever episode in May this year, but it looks like fans will have to wait a little longer to bid farewell to the spin-off show as the finale date has been rescheduled.
According to Parade, the drama’s conclusion will now air on Sunday 21 May, a week later than originally planned.
Chatting to the publication at the wrap party on Friday night, showrunner R. Scott Gemmill spoke about the challenging task of crafting the final episode of a long-running drama.
The series finale date has been moved to 21 May
“In fact, the longer you’re on the more difficult it is because there’s so much expectation and how do you live up to that?” Gemmill asked.
“We just took it on a character-by-character basis and tried to put them in a very good place in their lives and, hopefully, the fans will be happy with it. I think the last scene is really fun and hopeful.”
As for what viewers can expect from the last episode, Gemmill teased a “few surprises”, while also suggesting that Callen and Anna’s wedding could be on the cards. When asked if the ceremony will take place during the finale, the showrunner said: “That’s quite possible.

“There are a few surprises. We try to put everyone in a really good place and Callen and Anna are two of them. Part of what happens in the finale is Callen getting to a point of contentment and I think that’s why he’s asked Anna to marry him.”
