Pauley Perrette is leaving “NCIS” as scientist Abby Sciuto in a two-part sign off.
Last night's episode "One Step Forward" was part one of her farewell, with her part-two and final episode, "Two Steps Back," airing next Tuesday, May 8.
Perrette is the most-liked female primetime star on TV, according to Q Scores.
Perrette told TV Guide Magazine, "I believe in God and the universe so firmly, and it just suddenly became blindingly apparent that now was the time. After a lot of thought, I decided to announce it myself on Twitter because I didn’t want it to be turned into anything “shocking.” Abby leaving is more than a cheap TV ploy."
