CBS has dropped a bombshell, announcing the cancellation of “NCIS: Hawai’i” after just three seasons. The decision came mere days before the show’s grand finale on May 6, leaving fans in disbelief.
The news arrives amidst a flurry of renewals and new orders within the NCIS franchise. While the original NCIS series secures a 22nd season and NCIS: Sydney gears up for its sophomore run, the network is already eyeing a fresh addition: “NCIS: Origins.” Set as a prequel, the series will delve into the early years of Leroy Jethro Gibbs, portrayed by Mark Harmon, with Austin Stowell stepping into the role of a younger Gibbs.
The Hollywood Reporter broke the news of “NCIS: Hawai’i’s” cancellation, highlighting its distinction as the shortest-lived NCIS spinoff. Despite its popularity, the show joins the ranks of CBS casualties this season, leaving fans and cast members alike reeling from the abrupt end.
