CBS is making another move ahead of the return of several of its popular 2020-21 shows. The series is shortening the season of several of its shows, including NCIS: Los Angeles, The Neighborhood, Blue Bloods, Bull, Magnum P.I., NCIS, NCIS: New Orleans, and SEAL Team.
NCIS: Los Angeles and The Neighborhood will each air 18 episodes, and the rest have had their episode counts lowered to 16 episodes, per Deadline.
CBS is still in talks with outside studios about the number of installments for Mom, Young Sheldon, Bob Hearts Abishola, B Positive, All Rise, FBI, FBI: Most Wanted, and SWAT. The Unicorn had an initial 13-episode order and will stay at that number.
The pandemic shut down and shortened seasons last spring, so it is not a complete surprise that the same has happened this season, especially with delayed returns for CBS and the other networks.
What do you think? Are you surprised that CBS has shortened the seasons of NCIS, Blue Bloods, and more of its popular shows for the 2020-21 season?
My husband and I absolutely love Blue Bloods! My daughter and I love NCIS! Since the Pandemic we have been watching more news. Once Election is over we would like to watch both on a regular basis like we used to. Please, please keep them on.
Please don’t cancel all the show’s listed.
It sounds like the beginning of the end. I’ve watched NCIS &Blue Bloods since the very beginning. I’ve watched BLUE BLOODS & NCIS Since the PANDEMIC by DVR I practically know the script by heart. Please don’t take them off if the airi haven’t like shies as much as these 4
Doesn’t bother me either way. So tired of their almighty political remarks. Leave it at home and just entertain for a change!
Not happy there hasn’t been any thing on tv to watch but I understand
I hate that the shows seasons are to be shortened. Atleast if they make the full episode list they can screen in the next schedule.
Even though your asking for our feedback, CBS and its owners don’t care about our opinion. You’re going to shorten the episodes regardless, and blame it on the pandamic. I’m personally not happy with the decision, just as I was last season when everything got cut short.
Blue bloods is my favorite show of all time wish it was on year round sad cut short..
I think Blue bloods is the number 1 show on TV not that what I say matter I hope it’s not getting shortened because of all the bad rap about cops this is a fantastic show of real family and problems that go every day thanks Jofe
I think it is BS. We have suffered for months without anything except game shows and reruns. Maybe you could show Ferris Buehler da off again! Thank goodness for Netflix.
I don’t see all of those reality shows being cut short. They are waste of tv.
please keep all the shows that were listed. They are awesome
I think Hollywood has really let their public down. As far as everyone being quarantined, so tv more than likely will be some sort of that entertainment. The amount of movies being released and the quality have severely suffered. At the time when people should be relying on Hollywood to provide some form of entertainment. They have really come up short.
Holding on to there movies just to squeese out more money out of the public.
Are you serious? What are you doing?? Why?? For real? It’s unfortunate a unfair. Now winter is coming and it’s bad enough being locked up and without our favorite programs.
Yes I am surprised, we have been watching reruns which seem like forever. If it’s not a money thing why can’t they run into late spring or sumner.
these are the best dam shows on tv
