Just a matter of weeks into the new season, let’s just say we have great news on both NCIS: Origins as well as Poppa’s House. CBS has decided that they want more of both!

In a statement today, it was confirmed that each show will have a full-season order — in the old days, this used to automatically mean 22, but we have entered an era now where we do have to be a little bit more flexible.

Per TVLine, here is what CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach had to say:

“NCIS: Origins has added a brilliant new dimension to the NCIS franchise with an origin story of Leroy Jethro Gibbs and a cinematic ’90s experience that features distinct characters, stories and crime solving … Poppa’s House excels with the dynamic father-son chemistry between Damon and Damon Jr. and their family-inspired stories that bring this comedy to life. These shows fit seamlessly into our Monday night lineup while resonating with viewers on CBS and Paramount+.”

As for whether or not either one of these shows gets a second season, that remains to be seen — what we will at least say is that the prequel to NCIS has lagged behind NCIS: Hawaii so far this season in live + same-day numbers, and that show ended up being canceled. However, we are also in an era where live numbers are not the full piece of the puzzle, and the Hawaii-set series may have been far more expensive to make due to the location and several other factors. There is plenty of time for a lot of different things to be worked out for the future.

Also, we tend to think that there’s a lot of time ahead still for these shows to also find even more of an audience. Where they are now is not where they will be forever.
