Currently, there are just two TV shows hanging in the balance, awaiting decisions from CBS regarding their destinies: The Equalizer, a gripping series featuring the talented <b>Queen Latifah</b>, which airs on Sunday evenings, and Poppa’s House, a family comedy led by the dynamic duo of Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr., scheduled for Monday nights. Fans are eagerly anticipating the network’s announcements about these shows, which have captured audiences’ hearts.

Reports suggest there are both optimistic and pessimistic elements concerning the future of these two programs. It appears that communication regarding their potential renewals is ongoing, as highlighted by Deadline, which indicates that discussions are “continuing” for both series. However, the challenge remains that CBS’s upcoming fall lineup is tightly packed, leaving little room for new additions or renewals.

For Poppa’s House to enhance its chances of survival, a reduction in production costs might be necessary. The reports indicate that there is only a single slot available for a new comedy series, resulting in stiff competition for Poppa’s House from three new pilot contenders: DMV, Zarna, and a spinoff from The Neighborhood. This competitive landscape makes the future of the show uncertain.

On the other hand, The Equalizer is also facing budgetary scrutiny, with CBS reportedly in discussions with Queen Latifah to explore potential cost-saving measures. Although conversations are still active between CBS and Universal TV, there remains optimism that a renewal for a sixth season could be finalized, although no official announcements have yet been made.

In 2025, CBS has already made bold moves, canceling four shows while renewing a remarkable fourteen others. If you’re curious about which programs have been given another chance and which ones have been cut, we have a comprehensive recap just for you!
