CBS has now announced an official decision on the fate of CIA season 2, the latest spinoff series in the network's hit FBI TV franchise.

This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available.The fate of CBS' new FBI spinoff series, CIA, has now been decided for season 2.

CBS has confirmed that CIA has officially been renewed for season 2, following impressive viewership numbers from its series premiere. According to Paramount, CIA's premiere episode saw 8.4 million multiplatform viewers via broadcast and streaming within the first seven days of its release. Ratings for the first three episodes of the series showed a 39% improvement in the Monday at 10 p.m. timeslot compared to the same timeslot in fall 2025. Behind the scenes, CIA has had a rocky production. FBI: Most Wanted showrunner David Hudgins was initially in charge of the series, but Warren Leight later replaced him. That wasn't the end of the turnover, though, as he eventually departed, along with executive producer Eriq La Salle. Mike Weiss, who was the showrunner on the original FBI series, was hired as showrunner of CIA. All of this turmoil caused production delays, and CBS decided to give CIA a mid-season premiere after previously announcing it would debut in fall 2025.
