"We'll be getting into Bishop's background a little and meet her husband Jake, understand what their relationship is all about," executive producer Gary Glasberg recently told TVLine.com.

Wickersham previously revealed how excited she is for fans to get to know more about her character.

"I'm not sure what's been revealed, to be honest, but it's a storyline that I'm really looking forward to getting to know more about," she told the website. "I think it'll be fun to see where Bishop comes from. She has three older brothers, which I think makes the transition to hanging out with the NCIS crew easier."

While it seems that there's not much wrong with the new NCIS agent, Wickersham confirmed that some of her faults will appear in future episodes.

"For me, I think the faults in people are the most interesting and fun things to play. Like anyone, she's got her weaknesses for sure," she said. "Even though she's usually very on top of it, there are definitely weaknesses and faults that'll pop out."

Bishop made her debut on the show last November during the episode "Gut Check." In a poll conducted by TVLine.com, 78 percent of the show's fans said they either "love" or "like" the new character.

Season 12 of NCIS will premiere at 8/7c on Tuesday, Sept. 23, on CBS. The new spin-off, NCIS: New Orleans, will kick off right after.
