8 Spinoffs Included in CBS’ Schedule for 2025-2026

It’s all about the spin-offs these days on CBS.

Eight of the network’s upcoming series for the next year are spin-offs of pre-existing shows. Read on to see which ones.

Boston Blue

Danny Reagan is leaving the Five Boroughs. This Blue Bloods spinoff sees the detective shifting from his NYPD role to a police role in Boston.

CIA

FBI is getting another spinoff. This one, titled CIA, stars Tom Ellis. It’s the third FBI spinoff, after FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International.

Elsbeth

This spinoff of The Good Wife and The Good Fight is a bit different from those two series. In this comedy procedural, attorney Elsbeth Tascioni uses her unconventional methods of observation to catch murderers red-handed. It is similar to Columbo and Poker Face in that the identity of the villain is revealed at the episode’s start.

Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage

This Big Bang Theory spinoff is a direct sequel to prior BBT spin-off Young Sheldon. It focuses on the marriage of Georgie Cooper, the older brother of Sheldon Cooper, to his wife Mandy McAllister.

NCIS

Given how long-running and seemingly ubiquitous NCIS is, you’d be forgiven for not knowing it started as a spin-off. The popular police procedural was first a spin-off of 90s legal drama JAG, and has been airing for a whopping twenty two seasons now.

NCIS: Origins

This is exactly what it sounds like: an NCIS prequel based on the early naval career of series protagonist Leroy Jethro Gibbs.

NCIS: Sydney

Recently renewed for a second season, this is also exactly what it sounds like: NCIS, but in Australia.

Sheriff Country

A spin-off of Fire Country, Sheriff Country is a small-town police procedural led by Firefly actress Morena Baccarin.
