It’s fair to say there’s not much story about the actor’s supposed poor health except for the fact that he did undergo weight loss, which is nothing but unnatural.

NCIS season 18 began with a flourish this week with Joe Spano making a rapturous come back to the CBS drama as Tobias Fornell. Some fans, though, were puzzled by his new appearance.
Fornell (portrayed by Joe Spano) marked a welcome return to NCIS in the 18th season, having been inactive for the whole of season 17.

And his reconciliation with long-standing friend Gibbs (Mark Harmon) was not without intrigue when CBS audiences were taken back in time to see the two murky scandals of months passed by.
However, it wasn’t his character’s action that grabbed the attention as Fornell chased down a drug kingpin, but rather the transition of the star from his appearance the last time.
Season 18 opened up with a bang but it did not begin with Gibbs and Fornell getting thrown right into the crossfire.
Rather it was McGee (Sean Murray) who was at the forefront of the drama, receiving two gunshot wounds after preventing a jet from taking off.
The suspense behind why or who fired at him had the audience at the edge of their seats until the action turned to Gibbs and Fornell’s new operation.
And the viewers eventually figured out what transpired with Gibbs during the “fishing trip” in season 17, as he came back to the office with a bruised face.
However, the fans were even more interested in sharing their view on Fornell’s latest appearance.

Fornell needs to cut his hair #NCIS

The seventh said,
Not digging Fornell’s ponytail. #NCIS.
Another NCIS fan chipped in:
