Mark Harmon as Gibbs and Pauley Perrette as Abby in "NCIS"

NCIS has been a TV staple for more than 20 years, and the series has launched a slew of spinoffs since it first premiered as a spinoff itself from the show JAG in 2003.

The franchise follows various branches of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, and it recently expanded to go international.

With such a rich universe of beloved characters, action and crime-fighting, it can be tricky to keep track of all of the NCIS spinoffs—one of which even almost had a spinoff of itself. Here's your guide to the entire NCIS franchise and how to watch NCIS and its spinoffs.
