CBS ‘Einstein’ Drama Moved Back to 2026-27 TV Season


CBS has calculated that it won’t have room for its recently ordered procedural Einstein on next season’s schedule.

The network announced a series order for the show, in which Criminal Minds alum Matthew Gray Gubler plays the famed physicist’s great-grandson, a week ago. As CBS began assembling its schedule for the 2025-26 season, however, the network decided that it didn’t have enough space(-time) to fit Einstein into the slate.

From there, it was apparently a relatively easy decision to push the series back to the 2026-27 season.

More to come.
