There have been a lot of changes on television as of late, mostly due to creative or financial reasons. A lot of shows have lost cast members ahead of the current season and will probably continue to do so as the 2026 TV schedule continues. Unfortunately, that’s not all, as I just realized that three major CBS shows have made the same big change recently.
In recent weeks, Fire Country, NCIS: Origins, and the new FBI spinoff, CIA, have all lost their showrunners. CIA has lost two showrunners already, and the show hasn’t even premiered yet. When the series was first announced with its questionable original title, FBI: Most Wanted showrunner David Hudgins was set to spearhead the new series. However, in July, it was reported that Hudgins was stepping down while Law & Order: SVU’s former showrunner Warren Leight was stepping up.
