Mark Harmon’s 10 Best Movies And TV Shows

Mark Harmon did not grow up in a show business family, but instead, played football through college, and that athletic background might explain why so many of his best movies and TV shows include him in law enforcement and other more physical roles. The bulk of Harmon’s best-known projects involve him appearing as a law enforcement official or a doctor.

While his best-known project today is NCIS, Harmon got his start in acting in TV comedies and commercials in the 1970s. Though he has a handful of feature films to his name, he has mostly stuck to television over the years – writing, directing, and producing in addition to acting. His best movie and TV roles demonstrate that Harmon is really a grounding presence in a lot of his projects.
