CBS Successfully Defends Its Most Controversial NCIS Decision In Years
While the decision to extend the NCIS franchise might have seemed like a potentially foolhardy one only a few months ago, the success of the spinoff proves CBS made the right call with its new show.
AI Summary
CBS defended its decision to extend the NCIS franchise by highlighting the success of its spinoff. The new show has proven popular, reinforcing CBS’s confidence in the decision. JAG ran for 10 seasons with 227 episodes, rivaling the ABC cop show NYPD Blue. In 2003, JAG’s spinoff NCIS began and has now reached 24 seasons and 509 episodes, still airing in 2026. The series has also produced several location‑based spinoffs—NCIS: LA, New Orleans, Sydney, and Hawai’i—along with character‑centric NCIS: Tony & Ziva and the prequel NCIS: Origins.
