CBS 2021 Fall Schedule: FBI Tuesdays; NCIS Moves to Mondays

On Wednesday, CBS becomes the third broadcast network to announced their fall 2021 schedule and it looks like a big move is coming for NCIS. 

After 18 years as CBS's Tuesday night lead-off, NCIS will be relocating to Mondays at 9pm, where it will lead into new spinoff NCIS: Hawai'i. The move allows CBS to rebrand Tuesday nights as an all FBI night. This will give the #OneChicago and Law & Order creator Dick Wolf three nights of primetime next season. 

As for CBS's Monday night shake-up, Bull will be relocating to Thursdays at 10 pm. While The CSI revival will close out CBS' reality dominated Wednesdays at 10pm and the long-delayed second season of Blood and Treasure has been delayed until 2022. 

SEAL Team will air its first four Season 5 episodes on Sundays at 10pm before jumping to CBS sibling streaming outlet, Paramount+. Meanwhile the former Wednesday occupants S.W.A.T. will then take over that Sunday slot following a brief run on Fridays at 8pm (the former MacGyver's timeslot will eventually be filled with an unscripted series soon to be announced).

Here's a look at the fall schedule:

I'm liking the new moves that CBS has made for this fall. I'm so looking forward to Tuesday nights with the FBI fam! Monday nights look good with NCIS and NCIS Hawai'i. Bull moving to Thursdays isn't that bad, it's been a nice rating sample for the network on Monday nights.
