Week 22: Blue Bloods & NCIS Are Likely To Be Renewed
Blue Bloods & NCIS are both likely to be renewed. There’s always a chance these ancient CBS dramas get canceled because of their (non-public) syndication deals, but with the earlier cancellation of NCIS: LA it’s very likely both will see another season.
Predictions/Status:
All predictions are for renewal for the 2023-24 broadcast season, or cancellation by the end of the 2022-23 broadcast season.

🤷 What’s up with CW predictions?
Nexstar purchased 75% of the CW network in 2022. CBS & WB now own just 12.5% of the network each.
Nexstar has a deal obligating them to carry CBS & WB shows on the CW for the 2022-23 season. Nexstar can renew the deal at its option on an annual basis and carry CBS/WB shows longer, but what it will do is anyone’s guess.
