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?
Yes. Will definitely be watching season 4 of Bull. It is also one of my sister’s favorite shows. She will also be watching.
Love Bull and will be watching again next season and hopefully the one after that!
Another reason I believe Bull’s ratings were not as good as the first two seasons, why would a network put a show like Bull on Monday night, a football night? I would rather watch Bull!
Happy to hear that Bull was renewed!!!! Great show, never disappoints. Season 3 had some really good high points. Don’t think it wasn’t as good as previous seasons.
Looking forward to seasons 4,5,6 &7!
Third season really was not so good as previous two, but for now this is my favourite show. I am really happy it will be renewed.
Love Bull! I would be devastated if it cancelled! Great ending to season 3
Both my husband and I thoroughly enjoy Bull. It is one of our favourites. We will be watching Season 4.
Yes, although I loved Michael Weatherly on NCIS, his new show Bull captured my attention, as it had a new spin on the jurisdiction of crime. Although Michael could be innocent of his charges, I don’t think the show should stay if it proves he is guilty. I have watched + enjoyed most of Bull for the past 3 years.
Yes, although I loved Michael Wetherly on NCIS, Bull captured my interest the first season. Although I am surprised CBS kept the show going amid speculation of Michael Weatherly could possibly be innocent of those charges.
I don’t understand the networks of television today. Shows that should have been canceled after only one show remain on the networks for years. Bull is a great show and the actors are superb. Today’s networks remove great shows and keep shows that should never have been broadcast to begin with. I watch every episode of Bull and also record the shows to view again. Thanks for renewing Bull!
I watch it every week. What a GREAT relief from so much drivel on TV nowadays. The scripts are well written and the actors excellent in their varied roles. Glad it is being renewed.
Absolutely delighted that bull is renewed for another season. I love this show.
We love this show, please do not ever cancel it.
My husband and I love this show. We tape it so we don’t miss an episode. Glad it was renewed for another season!
I am so happy that Bull is being renewed! One of the best shows out there and Michael Weatherly is one of the reasons it is so successful!
