In May 2010, it was announced that Jamie Lee Curtis would be leaving NCIS after six seasons on the show. The news came as a shock to fans, who had come to love her character, Dr. Samantha Ryan. While there has been no official explanation for her departure, there are several theories about why she may have decided to leave the show.
One theory is that Curtis simply wanted to move on to other projects. After six years on NCIS, she may have felt ready for a change of pace. Additionally, her husband, Christopher Guest, is also an actor and director, and she may have wanted to spend more time with him and their two children.
Another possibility is that Curtis was unhappy with the direction of her character’s arc. Dr. Ryan was introduced in season six as a love interest for Gibbs (Mark Harmon), but their relationship never seemed to progress beyond flirting. It’s possible that Curtis grew tired of playing a supporting role and wanted her character to have more development.
Whatever the reason for her departure, Curtis will be missed by fans of NCIS.
