Has NCIS: Sydney Been Renewed For Season 2?

CBS has another hit with NCIS: Sydney. Now, the big question is whether this gritty spinoff will return for Season 2. Right now, the network has not announced a decision on the future of the series. However, things look promising.

According to TV Line, in their mid-season report card, this show is “TV’s most-watched scripted series.” There is nothing better than number one. Moreover, this could not have worked out any better for the network. This will certainly help efforts to renew this spinoff.

But, the publication does point out that other franchise spinoffs have done better. Yet, because of the complexity of the season, with the strike limitations, this show was not promoted in the way that CBS normally launches a series.

NCIS: Sydney was never intended to air on CBS. Originally, this series was only set to stream on Paramount+. This was an opportunity to take a new spinoff of the hit franchise and put it on its growing streaming service.

But, Because the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes prevented networks from staying on schedule for the 2023-2024 broadcast season, many networks got creative. In the case of CBS, they brought in NCIS: Sydney and this was a huge success.
