CBS is not moving forward with the Cold Case revival. A possible sequel to the popular crime drama was revealed to be in the works at the network back in April, but now, according to TV Line, those plans have been cancelled.
The original series stars Kathryn Morris, Justin Chambers, Thom Barry, John Finn, Jeremy Ratchford, Danny Pino, Sarah Brown, and Tracie Thoms. It aired on CBS for seven seasons between 2003 and 2010 before it was cancelled.
The drama follows Detective Lilly Rush (Morris) and her team at the Philadelphia Police Department as they work to solve crimes no longer under active investigation. The new series would have followed a new team doing the same in the Southwest. Pino was reportedly approached about reviving his Detective Scotty Valens character while the door was being left open for Morris to potentially guest.
No details were given about why the plans for the sequel were dropped.
What do you think? Were you a fan of the original Cold Case? Were you excited about the possibility of a sequel series on CBS?
Loved that series. Would gladly watch it again
Loved that series.
Loved the original. I prefer TV series like this that makes you think and follow along instead of reality shows.
How expensive to license all the music in 2024?
I wonder if it has anything to do with paying the Scriptwriters a pittance in the first place.
It’s now too expensive because the actors demand the lion’s share.
I absolutely loved this show!!!
A reboot would have been awesome I’m a HUGE fan of Kathryn Morris
Please please reconsider please ??
This is disappointing!! I loved this show and was looking forward to a reboot.
A reboot would be wonderful. I have binged watched the series all 7 seasons. Go back to the drawing board and get this back on the road.
