MONDAY, MAY 4 TO SUNDAY MAY 10
Finales! Finales everywhere!
As TV’s Primetime Broadcast season continues to wind up for the 2025-2026 season, more shows are shooting, streaking, and in some cases hobbling across the finish line this week.
Look out for final episodes of The Rookie, 9-1-1, 9-1-1: Nashville, Will Trent and Grey’s Anatomy on ABC.
Over on NBC meanwhile, the One Chicago and Law & Order franchises officially finish for the season next week, but the Network bids adieu to The Hunting Party this Thursday, while CBS airs the final episode of this season’s NCIS: Origins.
CBS was the last of the ‘Big 4’ Networks to kickstart fall programming in 2025 (While most networks began their fall seasons in late September, CBS held the majority of its scripted premieres for a specific Premiere Week in mid-October) meaning there are still a number of shows with one or even two weeks to go before finale time (Sheriff Country, Fire Country, NCIS, Boston Blue, FBI, CIA … )
Tracker, which brings Network, studio, and fan favorite Jensen Ackles back for the final two episodes of the season, is a late holdout, with a fashionably late finale set for May 24.
As always Streaming is a different entity, with fresh arrivals monthly. Check out these links to see what’s happening on Prime Video and Netflix over May.
Here’s how the week is shaping up. Links to official photography where available.
