It’s getting to the time of year when countless beloved shows will learn whether they have been canceled or renewed.

Although the barometer for success has changed considerably in recent years, surprise cancellations still occur when we least expect them.

As a result, there are a handful of broadcast dramas we’re more worried about than usual.

Let’s dive in.

The action-tinged Queen Latifah drama returned in the fall, down quite a bit from the previous year. CBS recently buried it in the 10 p.m. time slot to give freshman dud Watson the better hour.

Since the move, the numbers have dwindled further, leading to speculation that we could be approaching the series finale of The Equalizer.

Uh-oh, this isn’t good! Hana (Keisha Castle-Hughes) and Ethan (Michael Raymond-James) end up in some serious trouble in the next FBI: Most Wanted episode, airing March 11, and TV Insider has your exclusive first look. In the latest episode, Ethan revealed the reason for the pills she’d found: He’d nearly broken his back when he was in the Marines when he slipped during an urban warfare exercise and fell almost 50 feet. He was prescribed pills, and he became addicted. She made him promise he’d get clean, using an in-person detox program at the Va. After she took care of his drug dealer threatening to tell his job (he’s an Air Marshal), she helped him pack for the program and hurried him along so he wouldn’t miss his intake appointment.

Unlike its broadcast counterparts, CBS airs a wealth of scripted programming during the 2024-25 TV season.

ABC and Fox have been focused more on cheaper offerings as the TV ad market continues to contract, but CBS has proceeded with its proven hits this season.

After the network stunningly canceled Blue Bloods and NCIS: Hawai’i, it’s difficult not to be concerned about some of its shows as we head into spring.

Tiffany Wallace’s exit is further proof that the entire FBI franchise has more turnover than a fast food joint, and if that’s not vexing enough, the situation has only highlighted the show’s character problem.

As FBI Season 7 draws near, viewers face another casting shift with the departure of Katherine Renee Kane, who will likely sign off in the season premiere.

By now, casting changes amid the FBI franchise aren’t new.

(Bennett Raglin/CBS) From the FBIs to One Chicago, Cast Shifts as a Cost-Saving Tactic Hamper Creative Storytelling

We’ve even articulated our grievances about cast turnover before, not solely with the FBI franchise but also with One Chicago.

The Dick Wolf juggernaut series that span three franchises across different networks are notorious for a revolving door of cast and characters.

Recently, some explanations behind these abrupt shifts and changes have been tied to newly implemented...

In the Season 5 finale of “FBI: Most Wanted,” agent Ray Cannon (Edwin Hodge) marries girlfriend Cora (Caroline Harris) in the first wedding for the series’ history.

After mad bombers, a cannibalistic serial killer and Sheryll Barnes (Roxy Sternberg) getting shot in the line of duty, the season ended on a high — and very jubilant — note.

TheWrap: It’s the first wedding in “FBI: Most Wanted” history.

Miguel Gomez, who joined the FBI spinoff as Special Agent Ivan Ortiz in Season 2, is leaving the series, according to Deadline, which reports the exit is a creative decision.
