As noted by the publication, the broadcast appears to have been shaking things up to address lackluster ratings. Further disruptions are also expected with the upcoming Paramount-Skydance merger. This includes a possible round of budget cuts this upcoming fall.
Other changes have come to other aspects of the network’s programming. As previously reported, CBS’ long-running game show, The Price is Right, recently announced John Quinn as a new showrunner.
