With new seasons of all CBS scripted series delayed by the ongoing WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, the network has relied on shows from within Paramount Global and beyond for fresh scripted fare to put on the fall schedule. That will now include an extension of CBS’ biggest drama franchise of the past decade, NCIS, with episodes that will make their U.S. debut on the broadcast network just three days after their worldwide debut in Australia.
NCIS: Sydney, the first international spinoff for a CBS Studios global drama franchise, was commissioned last year by Paramount+ Australia and the country’s Paramount-owned Network 10. It will debut exclusively on Paramount+ Australia Nov. 10, followed by its U.S. premiere on CBS Nov. 13.
The crime drama will air Mondays 10 PM, following a rerun of the mothership series at 9 PM. The 10 PM slot, previously labeled as “Paramount+ original TBA” in the revised CBS fall schedule released in July, had been earmarked for NCIS: Sydney; the delay in the announcement was due to hammering out the necessary deals to make it happen. Warming up the 10 PM time period from late September, when the broadcast season launches, until NCIS: Sydney comes on, will be repeats of NCIS: Hawai’i, currently airing at 9 PM on the night.
With the addition of NCIS: Sydney, CBS has found a way to build programming blocks featuring three of its most popular scripted series, pairing repeats with some sort of fresh (for a U.S. broadcast network) content. On Tuesdays, FBI reruns at 10 PM will be preceded by Paramount+ docuseries FBI: True. And on Thursday, reruns of hit comedy Ghosts will be followed by episodes of the original BBC series, which streams on Max in the U.S.

With the King and Queen currently undertaking the second official tour of the new reign in France, a royal expert explains why it is more important than ever that the royals launch a "charm offensive" in the Commonwealth.Their Majesties previously visited Germany and were due to travel to France on the same tour but were forced to reschedule - at President Macron's request - after riots in the French Capital made it too dangerous. With two visits to Europe under his belt, and no announced plans for any tours in any major Commonwealth countries, questions have been asked when the King will travel to other countries where he is Head of State, such as Australia, New Zealand and Canada.This is especially true after ongoing suggestions that some realms may wish to follow in Barbados' example and strike out on their own.
