2. March Cancellations: Brutal Cuts and Fading Franchises
March wasn’t all rainbows and light—it was a storm of cancellations too.
CBS Lets Go: S.W.A.T., FBI: Most Wanted, FBI: International
CBS dropped a triple threat in one fell swoop:
-
S.W.A.T. was canceled for the third time after eight seasons—with cast and crew calling it “heartbreaking.”
-
Both FBI spin-offs—FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International—were axed too. That’s a Big FBI shake-up.
Fans of the FBI family—look, there might still be hope for that rumored FBI: CIA spin-off. Fingers crossed.
Other CBS Losses: After Midnight
CBS also ended After Midnight after two seasons. Another small goodbye.
Streaming Exits: Cruel Intentions, The Recruit, The Sex Lives of College Girls, Solar Opposites
-
Prime Video canceled Cruel Intentions.
-
Netflix said goodbye to The Recruit after two seasons.
-
Max ended The Sex Lives of College Girls.
-
Hulu’s Solar Opposites is on its way out.
A mass exodus of teen/young-adult content.
3. Spotlight on FBI: What’s Next?
You asked about inclusion of FBI—and here it is.
CBS abruptly canceled both FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International in March 2025. The network earlier confirmed S.W.A.T. would also end. All this is part of a broader strategic pruning. But don’t lose hope—the buzz about a new spin-off (FBI: CIA) is real, albeit unconfirmed.
This represents a big change for the FBI franchise. If you loved the thrill of the manhunt or elite agents, the landscape has changed—but one door might open tomorrow.
