Summary

Sean Murray appeared in JAG before NCIS, playing two different roles.
Murray's stepfather created both JAG and NCIS.
His father's Navy service inspired his NCIS character.

Sean Murray's tenure on "NCIS" as Special Agent Timothy McGee is extensive, but his acting journey began earlier, notably on the parent series "JAG."

Murray first appeared on "JAG" in 1998 as Ensign Terry Guitry. He later took on a recurring role as Danny Walden in five episodes between 2000 and 2001. The military courtroom drama "JAG" had a significant run and served as a backdoor pilot for "NCIS" through two episodes in its eighth season.

Beyond his on-screen work, Murray's connection to the military and these shows is deeply personal. His father, a U.S. Navy veteran of over 30 years, inspired elements of the "NCIS" character. Furthermore, "JAG" and "NCIS" creator Donald P. Bellisario is Murray's stepfather, and other family members have also worked on both series.
