We’ve received several emails from readers who love CSI: NY and are worried that it’s been cancelled. Will the show ever return? The simple answer is, “Yes, it’s on hiatus until March 30th.” But, while the TV series hasn’t been canned yet, Gary Sinise and company could certainly be in their final season.
It’s no secret that the ratings have declined over the years and that’s probably one of the reasons that CBS moved it to a Friday night timeslot. It still brings in a respectable 10 million viewers each week but is one of the network’s worst performer in the prized 18-49 demographic, even when you adjust for the Friday timeslot. Year-to-year, the show is also down by 7% in the demo.
At the recent TCA press tour, CBS entertainment president Nina Tassler noted that, though she loves the CSI shows, “Nothing runs forever. How you handle it, the most important thing is how you respect your audience, how you respect your cast, and being incredibly sensitive to how you wrap up any show when it ends a successful run. But we are in those talking stages now (about how to end the CSIs).”
It’s unlikely that CBS will end all three CSI series this year but they could certainly drop one or two of them. Based on the ratings, the New York version would be first in line to be cancelled.
What do you think? Is this the last season of CSI: NY? Should the series be cancelled or renewed for one more season?

i am a faithfull watcher of all three csis and the two ncis series i would hate for ne of them to be cancelled PLEASE keep them on my mother is 76 and she is also a great fan of all these shows
Please do not cancel CSINY it is a geat show, love Gary Senise and Sela Wars. If anyone should be canceled it should be Las Vegas, don’t care for Ted Dandon then next CSI Miami. Hope to see CSI NY for another season.

Keep all CSI on
please do not cancel this show. we have so few good shows. get rid of some of those stupid comedys.
I love all the CSI’s, they are great drama shows and all the casts have such great repore and just seem to click together, thats what makes them so good. No more reality shows.
Who cares about those people anyway!
I agree CSI NY is by far the best of the CSI’s. My wife and I look forward to watching CSI NY every Friday night before Blue Blood. Gary & crew rule! This show has everything…drama, humor, love and awsome story lines. We’re hooked! It would be a REAL crime if CBS cancels this great show!
Of all the CSI series, CSI NY is my favorite. Of all the CSI’s to ax, it ought to be CDI Miami. Talk about cheesy TV. Can anyone act on that show? Anyway, my vote would be to keep NY and even the original one.
CSI NY is the best of the three Please do not cancel this show
So what – CBS is going to give us another inane reality show in place of good drama?
If you are going to cancel something, make it CSI Miami – David Caruso even “acts” like he’s too full of himself!
I think CSI New York is the best of the three. I really hope it stays on air.
Please, do not cancel CSI: New York. It is one of the better shows on television and the best of the CSI series. Gary Senise is a very good actor and continues to grow.
Their are a lot of shows on that list that could be cancelled. The writing and quality acting of csi ny is superior to number of other. Shows on CBS. I think they need to look. At replacements are going to better show. Quality is worth the cost. Start going away from quality and you become mediocre network. I get so tired programming gurus that program for certain age groups and along they have lost their viewers to other programming. Keep csi ny quality program and quit gambling next piece one in the bush.
I can’t believe that CSI New York would be cancelled before CSI Miami. I like both shows (although Miami’s plots and progression are often beyond incredible), but New York is clearly the superior one. And I would have put it ahead of Las Vegas if they hadn’t brought on Ted Danson.
Thank you for letting me spout off.
i love the show. I like all of the ccsi but i like cisi new ork better then si miami. I think it should have another season . I wish you would at least bring stella back for one more show
I love the show, Gary Senise and Sela Ward have a great repor with each other and the rest of the cast. I’m still wondering what happened to Stella, though.
Please don’t put an end to New York !!!
Please do not cancel CSI New York because it is a great show. Try another day or time.
Please do not cancel CSI New York. The night may not be good. I watch most of all my shows on CBS. Try 10:00 on Tuesday or Thursday? I am a little upset that CSI Miamihas lacked new shows lately. Do not mess up Wednesday nights. Criminal Minds and CSI Vegas are perfect there.
