Well, there’s a lot of cause for celebration at CBS! While its prime-time lineup continues to air its current seasons on the 2025 TV schedule, a bunch of those shows just got news about renewal. Nine series, to be exact, got this exciting update, including staples like NCIS and newer hits like Tracker, Elsbeth and Fire Country. However, it’s the beloved sitcom Ghosts that got the best news.
CBS Just Renewed Nine Shows
So, here’s the breakdown of what we can expect to see in CBS’s 2025-2026 programming. The network had already renewed Matlock and there are series orders for Sheriff Country, a spinoff of Fire Country, Boston Blue (working title), a spinoff of Blue Bloods, and the singing competition The Road. Reality shows like The Amazing Race and Survivor will also be back. The FBI series also will be back.
Now, we know that nine more programs will return too. Here’s the full list CBS released:
- Tracker (renewed for Season 3)
- Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage (renewed for Season 2)
- Hollywood Squares (renewed for Season 2)
- Elsbeth (renewed for Season 3)
- Fire Country (renewed for Season 4)
- NCIS (renewed for Season 23)
- NCIS: Origins (renewed for Season 2)
- NCIS: Sydney (renewed for Season 3)
- Ghosts (renewed for Seasons 5 & 6)
All nine of these shows bring in millions upon millions of viewers, and may saw growth this season too. Tracker, for example, hits over 18 million multiplatform viewers, which is a +4% increase year over year. Quite a few of these shows also bring in well over 10 million multiplatform viewers, including Elsbeth (averages 11 million), George & Mandy’s First Marriage ( delivers 12.9 million), Fire Country (delivers 10.6 million) and NCIS (averages 10.4 million).
Notably, Fire Country’s viewership was also +43% year over year on streaming alone – meaning those with Paramount+ subscriptions are really using them to watch CBS’s weekly programming, and Max Thieriot’s fire drama specifically.
Now, all this is fine, dandy and very exciting. However, there’s one show that received some extra exciting news, and that’s the sitcom Ghosts.
However, Ghosts Got Picked Up For Two More Seasons, Not Just One
Now, like the original FBI show, which was renewed before all this through the 2026-2027 season, Ghosts has been picked up for two more seasons.
