As fans continue to yearn for the return of Cote de Pablo's character Ziva in "NCIS" season 13, various speculations and interpretations of several interviews have remained swirling as well.
Could there still be hope that the well-loved character will finally reappear? This seems to be the question of many at this point.
When "NCIS" director Dennis Smith shared a snap of him with the 36-year-old Chilean-American actress and on-screen partner Michael Weatherly on Twitter in the middle of last month, his followers went agog to learn the real score of Ziva's possible reappearance.
"This is the greatest thing I've ever seen in two years," one Twitter follower commented which somehow hinted of the excitement felt about the possibility of seeing Cote de Pablo's Ziva once again in "NCIS" season 13.
"You have made this TIVA fan so happy with that picture!!!!" another user wrote. "Now, let's get Ziva back to #NCIS!!"
TIVA refers to the love team of Tony DiNozzo (Weatherly) and Ziva.
In September, "NCIS" showrunner Gary Glasberg revealed to TV Guide that Ziva, portrayed by Cote de Pablo, will not be seen in season 13.
"There'll definitely be some surprise appearances of people from our NCIS past, but Ziva David is not one of them," he pointed out.
Meanwhile, Gibbs , who is in a "difficult place," will be "going to see some things and talk with some people that might surprise everybody."
Days after the said interview, Glasberg shared with The Hollywood Reporter that Tony's love life will be tackled further in "NCIS" season 13.
"Down the road, we'll continue to delve into the love life of Tony DiNozzo, and there might be some surprises for people a little further down the road into the season on that one, especially for our diehard fans," he noted.
Could this mean that there is already a possibility for Cote de Pablo's Ziva to be back in "NCIS" 13 considering that it is what the "diehard fans" would like to happen?
