Despite ongoing fan hopes, NCIS: Los Angeles is not returning with new episodes on CBS in 2026. The long-running procedural officially concluded with its series finale in May 2023, ending after 14 seasons as one of CBS’s most successful dramas.
Since then, CBS has shifted its focus to other corners of the NCIS universe, including NCIS, NCIS: Hawaiʻi (which later ended), NCIS: Sydney, and the prequel NCIS: Origins. While cast members like Daniela Ruah and Eric Christian Olsen remain closely associated with the franchise — and frequently spark reunion speculation — no revival, reboot, or continuation of NCIS: Los Angeles has been announced for 2026.
For now, the series lives on through streaming, reruns, and its loyal fanbase. While surprises are always possible in television, NCIS: Los Angeles remains officially retired — not new — this year on CBS.
