Last week, there were rumors that CBS picked up Einstein starring Matthew Gray Gubler for the 2025-2026 season. However, now the rumor is that they are holding it until the 2026-2027 one.
Why? Deadline is not sure. They are wondering if there is a surprise series that is going to replace it. We will find out on May 7th when they announce their schedule for next season.
I think that the series would have been next season’s most-watched new show on CBS because of Gubler and the plot. That and the network picked up several spinoffs, including Boston Blue with Blue Bloods’ Donnie Wahlberg, FBI, CIA with Tom Ellis, and the Fire Country spinoff Sheriff Country, and is that too much of a good thing?
Einstein is about the brilliant but directionless, the great grandson of Albert Einstein spends his days as a comfortably tenured professor until his bad boy antics land him in trouble with the law and he is pressed into service helping a local police detective solve her most puzzling cases.
Do you think CBS made the right choice?
