Hey there, NCIS aficionados! If you’re anything like me, your weekly routine revolves around catching the latest episodes of our favorite crime-solving team. But hold onto your hats—February’s schedule is throwing us a curveball, and it’s got ‘Origins’ fans buzzing. Let’s dive into what’s changing and how it impacts our viewing plans.
The Usual NCIS Lineup
Typically, CBS treats us to a lineup that keeps our Mondays and Sundays thrilling:
- NCIS: Mondays at 9/8c
- NCIS: Hawai’i: Mondays at 10/9c
- NCIS: Los Angeles: Sundays at 9/8c
- NCIS: Origins: Mondays at 10/9c
This schedule has been our steady companion, but February’s bringing some unexpected twists.
February 17: A Shift in the Sunday Routine
Mark your calendars—Sunday, February 17, isn’t business as usual. Instead of our regular dose of “NCIS: Los Angeles,” CBS is airing the second episode of “Watson” at 9/8c.
February 24: ‘Origins’ Fans, Brace Yourselves
The following week, on Monday, February 24, “NCIS: Origins” is taking a backseat. In its usual 10/9c slot, CBS is introducing “Tracker,” a new series that’s making its debut.
Why the Shakeup?
You might be wondering, “What’s with the sudden changes?” Networks often adjust schedules to accommodate new show premieres, special events, or even to test audience reactions. In this case, CBS is likely aiming to spotlight its new series, giving them prime slots to capture our attention.
How This Affects ‘NCIS: Origins’ Viewers
For those of us hooked on “NCIS: Origins,” this means a temporary pause in our viewing routine. Missing out on our weekly fix can be a bummer, especially when plotlines are heating up.
What About ‘NCIS: Los Angeles’ Fans?
“NCIS: Los Angeles” enthusiasts are also in for a surprise. With “Watson” taking over the February 17 slot, our Sunday night plans need a little adjustment.
Catching Up: Streaming Options
Don’t fret! If you’re worried about missing episodes or need to catch up, all “NCIS” episodes are available for streaming on Paramount+. It’s a convenient way to stay updated, especially with these schedule changes.
Looking Ahead: March and Beyond
The good news? These changes seem to be temporary. As we move into March, we can expect our beloved “NCIS” series to return to their regular slots, bringing back our familiar viewing rhythm.
Fan Reactions: A Mixed Bag
The NCIS community is buzzing with mixed feelings. While some are excited to check out new series like “Watson” and “Tracker,” others are expressing frustration over the interruptions to their favorite shows.
Social Media Buzz
Platforms like Twitter and Reddit are lighting up with discussions. Fans are sharing their thoughts, with some planning to give the new shows a shot, while others are voicing their disappointment.
