Tonight, NCIS begins a new chapter of sorts with the addition of a new cast member. Emily Wickersham joins the show as a series regular in the role of Ellie Bishop.

So who is the new girl? Two sneak peeks from "Gut Check" give us an idea.

After discovering that the Secretary of the Navy was recently bugged during a confidential briefing, the team is introduced to NSA Analyst Eleanor “Ellie” Bishop.

Reason being? She predicted the security breach in exact detail in a briefing she wrote two years ago. Because that's just what her young, beautiful mind does.

Bishop dreams up threats that don't exist yet. While working on the floor and being endearingly quirky, of course ... and is that a wedding ring on her finger?

Watch the two scenes for your first look(s) at Bishop and comment below:

Are you excited for Emily Wickersham's debut based on the scenes above? How do you think she'll blend in which Gibbs, Tony, Tim and the rest of NCIS?
