CBS reveals the season finale dates for many of their shows, including NCIS, Tracker, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, and multiple series finales. The upcoming finales for CBS' TV lineup mostly consist of season finales, alongside the curtain call for a multitude of series that were popular staples of the network for quite some time. This includes S.W.A.T. season 8, which is the last for the show despite being saved after season 6. However, some shows, like Fire Country and The Equalizer, will be expanding with new spinoffs later down the road.
Now, Deadline has revealed a list of season and series finales for CBS' TV show lineup, confirming shows will be ending in both April and May as the 2024-25 primetime season winds down. This includes the series finales for S.W.A.T., FBI: International, and FBI: Most Wanted, all of which were cancelled.

What CBS' Finale Lineup Means For Its TV Shows
Many Are Staying While Some Are Going
Based on how many of the shows are labeled, coupled with some confirmed renewals in the future, it appears most CBS shows are going to be coming back. This includes FBI season 8 and 9 getting confirmed already, despite the procedural's spinoffs coming to a close. Other shows with confirmed renewals include all three NCIS shows, Matlock, Georgie & Mandy's First Marriage, Elsbeth, Fire Country, and Tracker, while Ghosts was renewed for an additional two seasons. The Neighborhood season 8 was also confirmed to be ending the comedy series.
The finales on display here are also ushering in a new era for CBS, which is going to be launching a multitude of new shows based off existing series in the 2025-26 primetime season. This includes the upcoming Blue Bloods spinoff, tentatively titled Boston Blue, starring Donnie Wahlberg as Danny Reagan, and Sheriff Country, a Fire Country spinoff with Morena Baccarin's Mickey. Other shows include an untitled, CIA-focused FBI show and a spinoff of The Equalizer. This indicates a very franchise-focused lineup for the channel into the future.
