Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT CBS' long-running police procedural, NCIS, has been dethroned as TV's most-watched show for the first time in half a decade. Premiering in 2003, NCIS was born from the success of JAG. Despite technically being a spinoff, the Navy Yard-based series has long created its own identity, becoming one of the most successful shows.
What Tracker’s Success Means For NCIS’ Future Tracker Marks Justin Hartley's Return To TV After This Is Us. Close The good news is that despite being dethroned, NCIS will move forward with season 22. Not being at the top of the list shouldn't really matter that much to CBS, considering the main show's consistent showing throughout the years.
It's also worth noting that there was a lot of attention on Tracker for a couple of reasons. For starters, it was its debut year, and it premiered after the Super Bowl. Secondly, Hartley was riding from the success of This Is Us, since it's his TV comeback following the family drama's conclusion. This doesn't mean that Tracker isn't interesting, but it's important to acknowledge other factors that likely played in its performance.
