“NCIS: Hawai’i Gets the Boot Despite Strong Viewership – Fans Demand Justice!”
In a shocking turn of events, CBS announced the cancellation of NCIS: Hawai’i, despite its impressive viewership numbers, making it the network’s 12th most-watched non-sports program with an average of 7.8 million linear viewers. The first female-led drama in the NCIS franchise, it’s set to end abruptly after just three seasons, without the proper send-off it deserves.
Unfortunately, NCIS: Hawai’i isn’t alone in facing the chopping block, as other shows like So Help Me Todd and CSI: Vegas also received the same treatment. According to reports, these cancellations stem from a mix of scheduling conflicts, cost management, and the uncertainty surrounding Paramount Global, the parent company currently in the process of being sold.
As fans brace themselves for the end of an era, the countdown to the season three finale of NCIS: Hawai’i is underway. With the penultimate episode airing on April 29, viewers have until May 6 to bid farewell to Agent Jane Tennant and her team. Titled “Divided We Conquer,” details about the finale remain under wraps, leaving fans eager to uncover the series’ final moments.
Despite the disappointment, fans aren’t going down without a fight. A petition urging CBS to reconsider the cancellation has already garnered over 10,000 signatures. One of the key arguments highlighted in the petition is the show’s groundbreaking LGBTQ+ representation, particularly through characters like Kate Whistler and Lucy Tara, whose relationship has resonated deeply with viewers.
As the fate of NCIS: Hawai’i hangs in the balance, fans remain hopeful for a last-minute reprieve, refusing to let go of a series that has made such a significant impact on television.
