CBS has picked up a fifth season of drama The Equalizer, starring and executive produced by Queen Latifah, for 2024-25. As Deadline reported last week, the renewal was fully expected, with the delay related to lead studio Universal Television negotiating a deal with Queen Latifah.
It recently closed, paving the way to a renewal. So far, The Equalizer‘s seasons had been capped at 18 episodes, which is something top talent often request when signing on for a broadcast drama series.
There was an effort in the Queen Latifah negotiation to increase the number to 20 or more but I hear Season 5 will again consist of 18 episodes.
After Elsbeth renewed and So Help Me Todd and CSI: Vegas canceled last week, NCIS: Hawai’i remains the only CBS scripted series in limbo. (All other CBS comedy and drams already have been picked up for next season, including veteran Blue Bloods, which will end its run with eight episodes in the fall.)
