CBS Renews 10 Primetime Series for 2026-27 Season: What to Expect
CBS has announced the renewal of 10 primetime series for the 2026-27 season. The renewed shows include The Amazing Race, Elsbeth, Fire Country, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage, Matlock, NCIS, NCIS: Origins, NCIS: Sydney, Survivor, and Tracker. This renewal follows earlier pickups for Sheriff Country and Boston Blue, with FBI and Ghosts already having multi-season orders in place. Additionally, CBS has picked up new dramas Cupertino and Einstein for the upcoming season.
The renewals were expected as Tracker continues to be the most-watched network entertainment series for the third season in a row. Georgie & Mandy is the top comedy show, and the other series have been performing well this season. CBS has put its scripted shows on hiatus until the end of the Winter Olympics in late February.
With 16 hours of programming already secured for next season, CBS still has a few series awaiting renewal decisions. The network has yet to decide on the fate of first-year comedy DMV, drama series Watson, and the music competition show The Road. Two new dramas, the FBI spinoff CIA and the Yellowstone spinoff Marshals, are set to premiere in February and March, respectively.
In conclusion, CBS has solidified a significant portion of its primetime lineup for the upcoming season with the renewal of 10 popular series. The network's decision to continue these shows reflects their strong performance and audience appeal, setting the stage for another successful season of television programming.
