Mark Harmon Grumpy and a Diva on Set Before Leaving 'NCIS?'
Was Mark Harmon a diva on "NCIS" that led to his unexpected exit?
According to a report by Globe, Mark Harmon left the show because he couldn't handle the schedule anymore and was pulling everybody down with his grumpy attitude.
The outlet has labeled the 70-year-old as a "moody monster."
An insider revealed to the outlet that the daily grind of going to the set to film the hit action drama series for about 18 years was wearing him down.
"It turned him into a sourpuss," the insider said.
Harmon's duties don't only include being in front of the camera, but he's also an executive producer on the show that reportedly "had grown too hard to bear."
The veteran actor just wants to spend time in Montana with his wife, tend to his horses and chill around the house.
According to the source, Harmon is exhausted and wants to enjoy the life he worked hard for by doing the things he wants to do.
"He and Pam have been talking about taking a trip to Hawaii for the longest time and now they can."
His exit on the show was coming long, even after CBS didn't want Harmon to leave the show.
After being the face of "NCIS" for 18 years, the source concluded that Mark Harmon would surely be missed.
