The fans have spoken. "Boston Blue" and "Sheriff Country" are at the top of their “must-watch” lists, so CBS is renewing both freshmen for the 2026-27 season.
Since both series premiered on October 17, CBS has won every Friday night in terms of total viewers after seven days post-airing, per Nielsen.
"Boston Blue" is averaging 8M viewers in live + seven-day, and the network says streaming alone has seen an 87% lift from last season.
It’s been getting a nice lead-in from "Sheriff Country", too, since that’s averaging 7.6M in L+7. That’s a 33% average audience increase in that time period vs. "S.W.A.T." last season.
“Two new shows on Friday night have become instant hits with audiences quickly embracing Boston Blue and Sheriff Country across broadcast and streaming,” shared Amy Reisenbach, President of CBS Entertainment.
“These early renewals reflect the power of character-driven storytelling, compelling narratives and the exceptional talent on both sides of the camera.”
