Dick Wolf shows are like a Gremlin, you put one on the air, and they multiply. Currently, there are three Chicago and two Law & Order shows on NBC, and soon there will be three FBI series on CBS.
The network announced today that they not only picked up FBI and FBI: Most Wanted for another year, but they will be adding FBI: International to their lineup next season.
CBS describes this series as, “FBI: INTERNATIONAL follows the elite agents of the FBI’s International division as they travel the world with the mission of protecting Americans wherever they may be.”
I wonder if they will really travel the world or will be they be using green screen to represent other countries. I am thinking the latter.
Due to the pandemic, the television season started later than usual this year. However, it is ending in May like all of the other years in the past.
Today, CBS announced when their shows will be airing their finales. So get your calendars ready because you are not going to want to miss the series finales for Mom and NCIS: No LA, along with the other series who are still waiting for their fates to be decided.
That means I would not be surprised if a few more other shows will permanently be saying goodbye in May like B-Positive. I say that because, over the weekend, Thomas Middleidtch is reported to be involved in a sexual misconduct scandal. Vulture reports that he is accused of groping a woman without her consent at a now-closed Goth club in Los Angeles.

On March 21st, Pam Dawber and Mark Harmon are going to celebrate their 34th wedding anniversary. Then on April 6th, their marriage will experience another milestone. That is because the actress is going to guest star on her husband’s show NCIS for four episodes. This is the first time they will be working together on the series.
According to Entertainment Weekly, she will play Marcie Warren, “a seasoned investigative journalist who uses her savvy wit and down-to-earth people skills to aid in her tireless pursuit of truth.”
The actress retired from acting when she had their two kids and has only made a few TV appearances since then. Once to work with Robin Williams again on The Crazy Ones, and another time to honor Garry Marshall, who created Mork & Mindy, on The Odd Couple.
CBS has had a busy day. First, they picked up The Neighborhood and Bob Hearts Abishela. Then they cancelled Mom. Now, Deadline is reporting that NCIS: New Orleans will end its 7-season run on May 16th.
“Sad to end our love affair with this phenomenal city but so grateful for all the friends we made along the way,” Scott Bakula said. “I will miss the music. Big thank you to CBS for seven years.”
That means Bakula is freed up to do a Quantum Leap revival, so I am good with this. Not that there is one in the works, but there can be now.
Back to NoLA, the cancellation probably means that NCIS: Hawaii will be a go. What that means for NCIS: Mothership and Mark Harmon’s future with the drama, we will find out soon enough.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzqMZ7cpcVQ CBS announced today that they are bringing back its Monday night comedies, The Neighborhood for a fourth season and Bob ♥ Abishola for a third one.
“We’re extremely proud of these two comedies, and delighted to bring them back next season,” said Thom Sherman, Senior Executive Vice President, Programming, CBS Entertainment. “THE NEIGHBORHOOD and BOB ♥ ABISHOLA masterfully blend humor with relatable and culturally relevant storylines, and are tremendous, successful Monday night anchors.”
Now that CBS is bringing back Bob, I hope that they also bring back the song and dance numbers. That episode was so special because of the two group dances. We need more of that on television. And don’t tell me that is what Dancing with the Stars is all about. I ain’t doing Tyra.
