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?

This is a great show – so disappointing when its not on. Instead there is so much other vampire, so-called reality shows, and junk on. Please keep this show – keep it on a consistent night so we know when to expect it – and get rid of the other junk!
My mom and I are huge fans of all the CSI’s. I also miss CSI Miami so much. It’s one of my favorite CSI’s. Please save CSI New York, don’t let it be canceled. I would like for it to be on for two more seasons. I think CBS should repeat the CSI NY episode late at night just like TNT and all the other networks, so that the show, so that more viewers could have easy access to watch it.
I really think CBS, should start looking at the older generation and what they like to watch. I am so sick and tired of these stupid reality shows. I like a show with plots and CSI New York have great ones! I was disturbed when it was put to Fridays, cause everyone knows that no one stays home on a Friday Night! That is always a big planned outing, going into the weekend. I hate them trying to judge by ratings only, look outside the box for once and see also age groups, time slots where these shows would most… Read more »
We enjoy this show and actors and look forward to watching it every week.It is one of the less promiscious shows which everyone seems to enjoy.Leave it alone and continue to run.

I LOVE THE CAST AND WHAT HAPPEN TO THEM ON THE SHOW SO PLEASE KEEP IT ONNNNNNNN!!!!!! Thank you.
Please bring CSI New York back on the air. It was one of the few programs I really enjoyed. I love the cast and do miss seeing Gary Sinise on TV, Get rid of some of the reality and keep the good crime shows on. If you have to get rid of any get rid of CSI Vegas It sucks since you took off Gary Petersen
I love Gary Sinise and CSI NY. Please do not cancel this show. It is the best CSI show on TV. I look forward to this show every Friday and I have noticed they put the show Vegas in CSI time slot. Why would they cancel such a popular show. Sela Ward was a reat addition to the show. I used to see here in the gym in West Hollywood and I love her acting. Get rid of CSI Las Vegas since they took Gary Peterson off I stopped watching it. Please Please make some new episodes
Please keep this on. Move it to Saturday night – there is nothing worth watching-it would be great to see it then!!!!!!!
Please, please don’t cancel CSI,NY….It’s truly a very good show, with great acting all around. I hate the Friday night time slot….but I would truly hate to see it go altogether.
Please , PLEASE , PLEASE NOT CANCEL C S I NEW YORK ! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW ! : ) + + +
