CBS has some big decisions to make as we head into 2022.

Many of its shows are struggling in the ratings, and some are aging, which makes it more difficult to justify renewals.

Get all the details below.

13.
Blue Bloods – Likely Renewal

14.
NCIS: Los Angeles – Could Go Either Way

15.
NCIS: Hawai’i – Likely Renewal

So Help Me Todd doesn’t command the same amount of gains in delayed viewing as some of the more marginally rated CBS shows.

In live + same day ratings, it is averaging 4.4 million viewers and a 0.34 rating.

Unless it rises a bit, there’s a good chance it will not be back.

However, the series is down almost 30% in the demo this season, averaging a 0.29 rating. In total viewers, it is averaging 3.3 million viewers.
