2 NBC TV Shows Officially Canceled After Months of Speculation
Yahoo • • entertainment
Key Points:
- NBC has officially canceled two scripted shows for the 2026-27 season: the medical drama Brilliant Minds and the freshman comedy Stumble, marking the network’s first cancellations of the season.
- Brilliant Minds, starring Zachary Quinto, struggled with the lowest ratings among NBC dramas despite maintaining its Monday time slot, leading to its cancellation after two seasons; remaining episodes will air in a brief summer run.
- Stumble, a well-reviewed single-camera comedy with strong critic and audience scores, failed to attract a sufficient linear audience despite scheduling adjustments and internal creative support, resulting in its cancellation after one season.
- With these cancellations, NBC now has only two returning scripted series still undecided as it finalizes its prime-time lineup for the upcoming season.
