TImothy McGee (played by Sean Murray) has been a staple of the series since the first season. The NCIS star remains a fan favourite of the iconic CBS crime show, but he has recently come under fire for his recent decision for his character.

Season 17 of the series has been in full swing since it aired back in September of last year.

Viewers were riveted by the latest episode, In a Nutshell, which featured one of the team’s creepiest cases yet as they investigated a display of sinister dolls.

For some fans, a collection of creepy figures wasn’t the only terrifying sight on CBS when the episode aired on Tuesday night.

Some viewers took to viewers to finally spill what the NCIS community have all been thinking: McGee needs to shave his beard.
