While a NCIS: Hawaii series from the same creators may be on the horizon, it seems that Season 7 is the last for NCIS: New Orleans, as it was announced today that the show will be done at the end of its current season on CBS.
“It has been our sincere pleasure and honor to work on this show and with this incredible cast and crew for over 150 episodes,” executive producers Christopher Silber and Jan Nash said in a statement. “As disappointed as we are to see NOLA end, we couldn’t be prouder of the work we’ve done and are grateful to the spectacular and resilient Crescent City that embraced us for seven wonderful years.”
“Sad to end our love affair with this phenomenal city but so grateful for all the friends we made along the way,” series star and executive producer Scott Bakula added. “I will miss the music. Big thank you to CBS for seven years.”
“From the start, NCIS: New Orleans was able to distinguish itself with its New Orleans authenticity,” said Kelly Kahl, President, CBS Entertainment. “From the colors and music to the vibrancy and stories you can only find in the Big Easy. Thanks to the amazing talents of the producers, writers, cast and crew, ‘NOLA’ has played a key role on our schedule. We’re pleased to give it a big sendoff and that viewers will have the opportunity to say goodbye to their favorite characters as the final season wraps.”
The series finale of NCIS: New Orleans is scheduled to air May 16 on CBS.
