‘The Equalizer’ & ‘Poppa’s House’ Remain On The Bubble In Another Tough Year For CBS Renewals
'The Equalizer' and 'Poppa's House' remain on the bubble in another tough year for CBS renewals as the network has little shelf space for next season.
The Season 2 renewal of Watson today left two CBS scripted series on the bubble, veteran drama The Equalizer and freshman comedy Poppa’s House. Like last year, I hear The Equalizer star/executive producer Queen Latifah is negotiating her deal with lead studio Universal Television which has been looking to trim costs on the show. There is no active ongoing talk but it is conceivable that CBS could announce an early series pickup of one of its pilot/script contenders for the 2026-27 season like the network did with Sheriff Country last May for 2025-26.
