Although CBS hasn’t officially announced it, CBS CEO Les Moonves said today that he expects five of the network’s freshman shows to be renewed. That includes Supergirl and Limitless.
Moonves made the comments at the Deutsche Bank 2016 Media, Internet and Telecom Conference in Florida.
“We have five new shows on this year,” Moonves said, reports The Hollywood Reporter. “Of those five, I believe all five of them will be renewed, and we own four of them.”
The show’s he’s referring to are the sitcom Life In Pieces, the medical drama Code Black, the Criminal Minds spin-off Beyond Borders, Supergirl and Limitless.
CBS did cancel the Jane Lynch sitcom Angel From Hell and the Rush Hour series still hasn’t started yet. The Criminal Minds spin-off doesn’t start until March 16.
CBS also has plenty of long-running shows - including NCIS, The Big Bang Theory and the main Criminal Minds - that will likely be carried over into the 2016-2017 season. The Good Wife is also ending with its current season.
