Is CBS’ ‘Bull’ Getting A Season 4? Renewal, Cancellation Update

Season 3 of “Bull” concludes tonight, but that doesn’t mean the TAC doors are closing for good.

The Michael Weatherly-led CBS series was renewed for Season 4 on Thursday, despite the controversy surrounding the show and its average ratings.

Last December, news broke that the network paid former star Eliza Dushku $9.5 million in a settlement over allegations she was sexually harassed by Weatherly while working on the legal drama.

The series is also down about 37 percent from last year in both its average weekly viewers and its rating in the 18-49 demo. Out of 26 CBS scripted shows, “Bull” sits at number 21 in the demo, with a 0.75 rating, according to TV Series Finale. With 6.686 million, it comes in at number 11 out of 26 in average weekly viewers.

Although the show wasn’t canceled, it did lose a few of its executive producers shortly after the renewal announcement.

Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Television pulled out from the show, according to Deadline, which means Spielberg and Amblin TV co-heads Darryl Frank and Justin Falvey will no longer be executive producers on the drama.

“Bull” wasn’t the only show to get more episodes last week. CBS handed out season renewals to “SEAL Team,” “Madam Secretary,” “Hawaii Five-0” and “MacGyver” on Thursday, as well.

Before Season 4 arrives, though, there’s still the Season 3 finale for fans to check out tonight. Episode 22 of the season, titled “Pillar of Salt,” finds Bull (Weatherly) and his team on a new murder case.

“Bull works to convince a jury that an alleged murder was actually a tragic accident when TAC represents a woman charged with her 3-year-old stepdaughter’s death,” the synopsis reveals. “Also, Benny [Freddy Rodriguez] gives Bull some surprising news regarding Isabella (Yara Martinez), Benny’s sister and Bull’s ex-wife.”

The Season 3 finale of “Bull” airs on CBS on Monday at 10 p.m. EDT.
