“Is NCIS: Hawai’i Facing the Chopping Block? Here’s What You Need to Know!
As CBS gears up for May sweeps, uncertainty looms over the fate of NCIS: Hawai’i, despite its solid performance. With budget cuts looming and the network tightening its purse strings, the future of the beloved spinoff hangs in the balance.
According to Deadline, while NCIS: Hawai’i has been a consistent performer, it might face a shortened season and potential cast adjustments to navigate the changing landscape. Similar to the fate of Blue Bloods, which is set to end after 14 seasons due to budget constraints, NCIS: Hawai’i could see its episode count reduced from the usual 22 to just 13.
But what does this mean for fans? With the NCIS franchise expanding with new spinoffs like NCIS: Origins and an untitled series focusing on Tony DiNozzo and Ziva David, there’s a concern about oversaturation. However, NCIS: Hawai’i, led by Vanessa Lachey’s Jane Tennant, has carved its place in the franchise’s history, boasting a dedicated fanbase.
While decisions are pending, viewers can catch new episodes of NCIS: Hawai’i on Mondays at 10 p.m. ET on CBS, with past episodes available for streaming on Paramount+. Stay tuned for updates on the show’s future!”
