CBS Fall 2026 TV: Everything You Need to Know
The 2026-2027 TV season at CBS will, once again, be full of time-tested crime procedurals, spinoffs, and a few comedies for good measure.
The network has revealed the major details about its scripted and unscripted lineup, so here’s a look at what’s ahead on the eye network this fall.
Renewed CBS Shows
CBS has renewed 2025-2026 newcomers Boston Blue, CIA, Marshals, and Sheriff Country for second seasons, as well as Elsbeth Season 4, FBI Season 8, Fire Country Season 5, Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage Season 3, Ghosts Season 6, Matlock Season 3, NCIS Season 24, NCIS: Origins Season 3, NCIS: Sydney Season 4, and Tracker Season 4.
On the unscripted side, CBS has given the greenlight to The Amazing Race Season 39, The Drew Barrymore Show Seasons 7 and 8, Entertainment Tonight Season 46, Flip Side Season 3, Hot Bench Season 13, Inside Edition Season 39, Jeopardy! Seasons 43 and 44, The Perfect Line Season 2, Survivor Season 51, Wheel of Fortune Seasons 44 and 45, and Harlan Coben’s Final Twist Season 2.
Canceled CBS Shows
CBS pulled the plug on new workplace comedy DMV after a single season and crime drama Watson after two seasons. Also ended is The Neighborhood, which ran for eight seasons, and CBS also canceled The Late Show With Stephen Colbert after 11 years.
New CBS Shows
There are several new shows on the way to CBS this fall.
Cupertino: The new Silicon Valley legal thriller reunites Robert and Michelle King with Evil star Mike Colter and will also star Ella Stiller, Renee Elise Goldsberry, and Busy Philipps.
Einstein: The new crime drama will star Matthew Gray Gubler in the lead.
Eternally Yours: The love story centers on two vampires who have been married for 500 years and struggle with their daughter, Emma, dating a human. The cast includes Ed Weeks, Allegra Edwards, Helen J. Shen, Parker Young, Rose Abdoo, Tristan Michael Brown, and Shylo Molina. The creative team includes Joe Port as writer and executive producer, Trent O’Donnell as director and EP, and Eric Tannenbaum, Kim Tannenbaum, and Jason Wang as executive producers.
NCIS: New York: A spinoff centered on LL Cool J’s Sam and Scott Caan has been ordered to series by the network. Read all about it right here.
Not going forward at CBS is The Tillbrooks, which was ordered to pilot and would’ve been a 19th-century period story set in England about an upper-middle-class family and would’ve featured Kate Walsh, Rhys Darby, Hayley Griffith, Mia Challis, and Shiv Pai.
CBS Fall 2026 Special Event Programming
The network will host the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, September 27, in a simulcast with MTV live from Los Angeles. Then, on November 14, the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards will be simulcast with the title kids’ network. The Price Is Right Live will also be a primetime Christmas special for the very first time.

cbs Needs to do Something about the problem of 60 min, Ruining normal programming that comes after it!! Their refusal to fix this issue is just inexcusable!!
-
D
The problem is not 60 Minutes. The problem is sports overruns. At least they corrected a major issue a few years back when they moved the start time back 30 minutes on Sundays they have an NFL doubleheader.

I no longer have a reason to have cbs as a reason to be part of my tv package
-
B
I love Ghost is the best show on CBS
-
M
America's Funniest Home Videos is NOT a CBS show.🤦
-
J
Why is the Perfect Line renewed
-
D
No more broadcast of NCIS: Sydney as well as Tony & Ziva?
-
T
American Mayhem and Adam’s Law shouldn’t be on this list, as those are syndicated programs being distributed by Paramount’s syndication division, CBS Media Ventures, for broadcast on individual local stations, not the CBS network itself.
-
D
CBS should have never canceled Poppa's House for the dreck that is DMV. Just a terrible show from the get go while Poppa's House had really found its footing.
-
R
They are renewing all my favorite shows. Thank you.
