CBS has released premiere and return dates for their shows beginning in February 2024. The new season was, of course, delayed by the dual WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
The new season will kick off with the Justin Hartley-starring Tracker and within weeks fan favorites like The Equalizer, the NCIS shows, Ghosts, and Young Sheldon will all be back. We’ll also see the premiere of the Good Wife spinoff Elsbeth. The Kathy Bates-starring Matlock will sadly be waiting for Fall 2024.
Here’s the press release with more details.
