CBS has renewed freshman drama "CSI: Vegas", a sequel to the groundbreaking 2000 series, for a second season to premiere during the 2022-23 broadcast season.

Season 1 of "CSI: Vegas" was led by the original series’ stars William Petersen and Jorja Fox. Petersen had only signed on to reprise his role as Gil Grissom in the initial 10-episode installment. He will not continue as an actor but will remain an executive producer for Season 2.

According to sources, Fox’s contract allows her to continue as Sara Sidle if she chooses to, and the series’ producers are hopeful that she may come back.




“The incredibly talented CSI: Vegas creative team and cast did a superb job this first season, brilliantly updating and portraying the CSI universe with fresh stories and a new crime lab, proving that after 20 years, the CSI fan base is still hungry for more and ready to embrace a new chapter in this illustrious franchise,” said Amy Reisenbach, EVP Current Programs at CBS.
