EXCLUSIVE: Magnum P.I.‘s reprieve at NBC is coming to an end. The network has opted not to order additional episodes beyond the 20-episode fifth season picked up last year.
NBC is expected to mount a sizable campaign for the remaining 10 episodes, marketing them as the series’ final chapter.
The reboot starring Jay Hernandez was not in a need of a renewal decision at the time of NBC’s upfront last month because its 20-episode Season 5 had been split into two, with the first half airing this midseason and the second half slated for midseason 2024 (or earlier, depending on the impact from the WGA strike.)
However, the options on the cast are up June 30, which forced the issue now. NBC had three scenarios, to pick up a sixth season, to extend the options on the cast or to release the actors and end the series. Networks have been very conservative with pickups amid the writers strike as it’s unclear when scripted series could go into production, so an early renewal appeared unlikely.
With the 2023-24 season already taken care of through the 10-episode Part 2 of Season 5, NBC would not have to make a Season 6 renewal decision on Magnum P.I. until a year from now, making for a long hold on the cast.
Magnum P.I. cheated death once. After CBS canceled the reboot last year, lead studio Universal Television found a new home for the drama at its sister network NBC. That is not likely to happen again unless a streamer like Netflix, which has found success with fellow NBC series Manifest, swoops in.
The show’s complex streaming rights may be a hurdle — Magnum P.I. is available in-season on NBCUniversal’s Peacock, with previous seasons on Paramount+, the streaming sibling of CBS and series’ co-producer CBS Studios.

Reservation Dogs is coming to an end.
Joe Otterson TV Reporter “Reservation Dogs” will end with its upcoming third season. The FX series airs on Hulu, with Season 3 set to debut on Aug. 3 Series creator Sterlin Harjo made the announcement on his Instagram. “Aho young and old warriors!” he wrote. “Here it is: the coming third season of ‘Reservation Dogs’ will be the final season.” “That’s a difficult line to write and a more difficult decision to make,” he continued. “However, it’s the correct decision creatively for the show. I always knew what the end of this story would be, I just didn’t know when it would arrive. As we continued to break stories and write scripts this season, it became clear to the producers, Taika and me that the season three finale is the perfect series finale. When we came up with the idea for ‘Reservation Dogs,’ I didn’t think the show would ever get made, but thankfully it did.”
Max has made the shocking announcement that the beloved comedy series The Other Two is ending after season three, which wraps up this week.
Ethan Shanfeld “The Other Two” will not return for a fourth season, as series creators Chris Kelly and Sarah Schneider announce that they “always knew” Thursday’s Season 3 finale is “where we wanted to end” the stories of Brooke and Cary Dubek.

It starred Heléne Yorke and Drew Tarver as disillusioned millennial siblings Brooke and Cary, who attempt to make it in New York City after their teenage brother becomes a Justin Bieber-esque pop star and their mother a daytime TV host. In Season 3, Cary, an actor, finally works his way up to C-list celebrity status, while Brooke, after talent managing her famous family members, decides to leave the industry to “do good.”

It’s over for Magnum, P.I., again.
Selome Hailu “Magnum P.I.” is coming to a close at NBC. The drama series, which was canceled by CBS last year before NBC picked it up, will not continue past the upcoming second part of Season 5. The decision not to order a sixth season comes past the 50-day mark of the WGA strike and a potential strike by SAG-AFTRA after the actors union’s contract with the AMPTP expires on June 30. That date coincides with the end of the “Magnum P.I.” cast’s deals at NBC. Therefore, to avoid cancelling the show, NBC would have had to either order more episodes without knowing when they could enter production or extend the actors’ deals to prolong the decision-making period. Ultimately, opted to release the actors and move forward without “Magnum P.I.” on its slate.
