All the shows that are part of one of CBS’ hit franchises are sticking around for another year. The network has renewed NCIS (for Season 20), NCIS: Los Angeles (for Season 14), and NCIS: Hawai’i (for Season 2) for the 2022-2023 season. (The news comes days after the first NCIS crossover with Hawai’i aired.)

“NCIS, one of the most popular and enduring series in the world, and fan favorite NCIS: Los Angeles have been hugely successful on the CBS schedule for years,” Kelly Kahl, president, CBS Entertainment, said in a statement. “With the strong new addition of NCIS: Hawai’i, we are able to expand the strength of this formidable franchise across our schedule. We couldn’t be more excited to have all three talented casts and creative teams back to bring more compelling NCIS stories to viewers in the U.S. and around the globe.”
