Despite some drop off, last year, the Bull TV show remained a top-five performer for CBS. In the third season, how will a change in night and timeslot affect the series’ performance in the Nielsen ratings race? Will Bull be cancelled or renewed for season four? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
A CBS legal drama inspired by the early career of Doctor Phil McGraw, Bull stars Michael Weatherly, Freddy Rodriguez, Geneva Carr, Jaime Lee Kirchner, and Christopher Jackson. The show centers on the brash and charming Doctor Jason Bull (Weatherly). In heading the team at his Trial Analysis Corporation, Bull combines psychology, human intuition, and high-tech data to learn what makes jurors, attorneys, witnesses and the accused tick.
