‘SEAL Team’ & ‘Clarice’ Could Move to Paramount+ If Renewed

While CBS has made decisions about most of its scripted 2020-2021 shows, there are still six awaiting news. And for two of them, if they come back, there may be a change.

If SEAL Team, currently airing its fourth season, and Clarice, in its first season, are renewed, it’s possible that they could be moving over to ViacomCBS’ streaming service Paramount+ as it builds its library, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

SEAL Team‘s potential fifth season might start on CBS and then head to streaming, according to the report. Clarice‘s potential second season would only be released on Paramount+. This has happened in the past; for example, A.P. Bio moved to Peacock after airing two seasons on NBC (and getting canceled).

This report comes as CBS also has yet to announce the futures of one other drama and three comedies, two of which have finished their current seasons. All Rise airs its second season finale on Monday, May 17. B Positive wrapped its first season on May 13. The Unicorn‘s Season 2 finale aired on March 18. And United States of Al will end its first season on June 24.

CBS has, however, already renewed 12 shows for the 2021-2022 season: Blue Bloods, Bob Hearts Abishola, Bull, The Equalizer, FBI, FBI: Most Wanted, Magnum P.I., NCIS, NCIS: Los Angeles, The Neighborhood, S.W.A.T., and Young Sheldon. MacGyver and Mom have already aired their series finales, and NCIS: New Orleans‘ is set for May 23.

The network has also already ordered six shows to series for next season. There are new offerings coming in the CSI, FBI, and NCIS franchises — CSI: Vegas, FBI: International, and NCIS: Hawai’i — as well as Ghosts, Good Sam, and Smallwood.

The David Boreanaz-led SEAL Team only has two episodes left in its fourth season, with the finale set for May 26. Clarice, with Rebecca Breeds in the titular role, is set to end its freshman run on June 24.

    That would be a slap in the face of fans. Put brand new stuff there for those who want to subscribe but don't try to force me there by moving my favorite shows. That would make me even less inclined to watch.

    This is ridiculous. I am tired of these networks switching shows to streaming. I pay enough for cable to watch these shows and can't afford to pay for a dozen more streaming services just to watch one or two shows. If a show starts on the network leave it there until it runs its course. If this keeps happening I may just find some other form of entertainment. That would meen cancelling cable and and just using an antenna for the news and nothing else. If the younger people want streaming, then put new shows on there for them. Let us old fokes keep the shows we enjoy. If these networks keep doing this it is going to piss a lot of people off. I am already POed at Discovery for changing The Irwins to Discovery+. I Won't even watch the repeats they are putting on regular Discovery, even though I liked them. As much as I love Star Trek I will not pay for Paramount streaming just to watch it. I would rather buy the DVD, then I can watch it any time I want. It would probably be cheaper.

    Please don't put SEAL Team on P+. Just keep it on regular CBS.

      I agree with Jena, young folks like to just pick 2 to 4 streams to watch so if you keep moving good shows or canceling them as well

      Macgyver, all rise. Come on leave it alone put the new stuff on a stream if it does amazing move it over but the seal team wont last if it goes to streaming 60% or more who watch this I would guess watch on regular TV

    I’m really tired of the good shows moving to streaming channels!! Not all of us can afford or even like streaming. It’s unfair to get us hooked then move the show to a place we can’t access! They either cancel or move the good shows and keep mindless comedies and reality shows. I’m thinking of canceling all tv, buying an Rv, travel and read books. At least we can still get them!

    Talk about a big, big mistake. Why is it that CBS is always forcing people to streaming and to having to subscribe to a favorite program. Leave it where it is and let us older ones enjoy it and know first hand what some of the stories are trying to get across to the public.

    I guess time will tell. I think if SEAL Team were to be renewed traditionally, the announcement may already have come. This makes me think any type of renewal is contingent on ongoing negotiations. David Boreanaz, IMO, represents much of the reason for the decline in viewers. He always struck me as an odd choice for the role, but he did well for the initial seasons. This season it just came off different.

    I don't care since I already subscribe to Paramount Plus to watch the Star Trek shows especially.. I also watch a lot of shows on CBS on PP already to avoid ads and not have to deal with FF'ing on my DVR.. Plus Comcast X1 has Paramount among other streamers available so don't event have to switch devices to watch if it goes that way.. I have a feeling the newly announced shows will have a much bigger audience and more importantly possibly a younger audience which all the networks want...

    I wanted to like Clarice, but it's just too dark and soapy.
