“Hot Off the Press: ‘NCIS Sydney’ Spin-Off Set to Premiere in Fall 2023 – You Won’t Believe the Exciting Details!”
Good news for NCIS fans – there’s fresh content to look forward to this fall. While the core trio of NCIS shows has been postponed until 2024 due to the writers and actors strike (with NCIS: LA even getting scrapped), NCIS: Sydney is set to premiere on CBS to fill the void.
NCIS: Sydney is the franchise’s fourth show and the first to be set outside the United States. It will consist of eight episodes and will have an unconventional release format. The first episode will premiere on CBS the same night it becomes available for streaming on Paramount Plus and Showtime.
When will ‘NCIS: Sydney’ be released? The show is set to premiere on November 10 in Sydney and will be available for streaming in the United States on Friday, November 13. As it concluded production shortly before the writers’ strike began, it will be the only scripted drama to debut on CBS this autumn.
CBS Entertainment President Amy Reisenbach announced the show’s premiere date, expressing her enthusiasm for expanding the global appeal of the NCIS brand. “NCIS is one of the most popular series in the world, and we’re thrilled to expand this franchise with a uniquely Australian twist,” she said.
Reisenbach further stated, “With the addition of NCIS: Sydney, our studio and network footprint continues to grow in this fascinating world that has been a proven winner with viewers on both linear and streaming platforms. With the stunning backdrop of Australia as its setting, the new series will incorporate the high-stakes intrigue, humor, and camaraderie that have kept fans captivated by the NCIS teams for more than two decades.”
It remains to be seen whether the success of the first season will result in an expanded episode count, bringing it closer to the episode counts of the other NCIS series. In any case, fans have something to look forward to for their procedural fix this autumn, and the anticipation is high.
