  "textContent": "CBS has quietly made a major programming move ahead of its upcoming schedule reveal, cancelling two of its scripted shows and setting their end dates.\n\nThe decision, confirmed just weeks before the network unveils its 2026–27 lineup, signals a shift in strategy as CBS reshapes its slate.\n\n## Which shows have been cancelled?\n\nCBS has cancelled Watson after two seasons and DMV after just one.\n\nBoth series were among the few scripted titles that had not secured early renewals, leaving their futures uncertain for months before the final decision.\n\n## What led to the cancellations?\n\nThe two shows struggled to compete with stronger performers on the network.\n\n_Watson_ experienced a ratings decline following a scheduling change, while  _DMV_ held steady in traditional ratings but saw drops in delayed and multi-platform viewing.\n\nAt the same time, newer dramas including  _Marshals_ and  _CIA_ were renewed early, tightening the competition for available slots.\n\n## When will the shows end?\n\nCBS has already scheduled both finales:\n\n  * _Watson_ will air its final episode on May 3\n\n  * _DMV_ will conclude on May 11\n\n\n\n\nThe timing means both series will wrap up within weeks of the cancellation announcement.\n\n## What happens next for CBS?\n\nThe network is moving forward with a refreshed lineup, renewing multiple dramas and betting on new projects.\n\nComedy pilots  _Eternally Yours_ and  _Tillbrooks_ are already generating internal buzz, while the end of  _DMV_ and  _The Neighborhood_ opens up space for new entries.\n\nWith its latest decisions, CBS appears to be prioritising newer titles and stronger performers as it heads into the next season.\n\nThe post CBS show cancellations: what’s been cut and what happens next appeared first on HUM News.",
