CBS is taking this Bull by the horns. The network just announced they’ve renewed the TV show for a fourth season amid controversy over star Michael Weatherly.
The legal centers on the brash and charming Doctor Jason Bull (Weatherly), who combines psychology, human intuition, and high-tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses and the accused tick. The cast also includes Freddy Rodriguez, Geneva Carr, and Jaime Lee Kirchner.
It’s a little surprising that CBS has ordered another season of Bull. First of all, the show’s third season has dropped significantly in the ratings, going from 1.19 rating in the 18-49 demo during season two to only .75 this season with 6.686 million viewers. Compare this figure to season two’s 10.618 million viewers.
Additionally, the series is currently plagued by controversy. Deadline reports Steven Spielberg’s production company Amblin Television has left Bull because of recent sexual harassment allegations made against star Michael Weatherly.
Nevertheless, CBS has decided to pick up Bull for the 2019-20 season.

What do you think? Do you watch Bull? Will you watch season four?
My husband and I look forward to Bull every week. There are never boring story lines. Michael Weatherly is an excellent actor and brings in humour and as well as deep emotions. Makes us believe in goodness. Please do not cancel. Would me a shame.
Please keep Michael Weatherby!! If he isn’t going to be on it, I’ll quit watching. He makes the show what it is. Please DO NOT CANCEL!
I like this show although I did think about the accusations against him. I recorded them knowing about it. But I needed time to think before passing judgement. So I watched them. Stories were a little flat
and some that were far fetched.
I love Bull!
Best show and Michael Weatherly makes the show so special.
Congrafulations to CBS.
Love BULL..DO NOT CANCEL!!!!!
Love BULL, don’t cancel.
My wife and I love this show. The concept is different and the cast is great. While the loss of Cable was a shock, the way her position was filled helped ease that pain. We are thrilled it is coming back and hope so for many years.
Yes, I will definitely be watching. The cast makes a GREAT team and Michael is outstanding as Bull; it’s my favorite show. The writers are extremely creative and often keep us guessing until the very end. I’m glad to hear it has been renewed! THANK YOU!
I am so happy you’re renewing Bull! It’s a great show! I will definitely be watching!
I should add that the dialogue is great in Bull. It’s one of the few series I really look forward to.
Love Bull…Will watch every episode
I am thrilled Bull is being renewed. It’s one of the best series on TV–great story line, great acting–well done!
I’m very happy you renewed. I love this show.
Yes, I love the show. Glad it was renewed.
We have lost interest in Bull. The story lines are ok but not enough to waste an hour watching. I really liked Michael Weatherly in NCIS but I don’t in Bull. Also disappointed he is an ass.
Love the show. Don’t change anything.
