CBS 2017-2018 Season Finales: ‘NCIS,’ ‘Scorpion,’ ‘Big Bang Theory,’ ‘Hawaii Five-0,’ And More Shows
CBS has released the season finale air dates for the shows that premiered in the fall of 2017. Scorpion will be the first show from the broadcaster’s 2017-2018 lineup to wrap up its season this year. The show is slated to end its Season 4 run in April. Criminal Minds Season 13 finale, too, airs in April. The rest of the remaining CBS 2017-2018 fall season shows have their season finales in May, as per CBS.
The 22-episode Season 4 of Scorpion ends with an episode titled “A Lie in the Sand,” according to the Futon Critic. CBS has yet to release the synopsis for the season finale. Scorpion is one of the shows that is reportedly on the bubble. And Season 4 might turn out to be the final season when CBS makes the renewal-cancellation announcement in May.
“Believer” is the title of the Criminal Minds Season 13 finale, which is a two-hour-long episode. Earlier this month, executive producer Harry Bring took to Twitter to reveal that Episode 22 of Criminal Minds Season 13 was written by Breen Frazier and directed by Glenn Kershaw. Like Scorpion, Criminal Minds is also said to be on the bubble. Harry Bring, however, is confident that CBS will greenlight Criminal Minds Season 14.
When a Twitter follower wrote to Harry Bring, “It’s the end of Criminal Minds [Season 13],” he replied, “Season 14 coming soon.”
Season 14 coming soon

Superior Donuts Season 2 finale is most likely to end up being the series finale. The show has failed to impress both viewers and critics. The sword of cancellation is also hanging on Madam Secretary because of its dwindling ratings. Meanwhile, the two shows that are confirmed to return this fall are The Big Bang Theory and its prequel Young Sheldon.
The most anticipated season finale is probably that of The Big Bang Theory. The award-winning comedy series’ Season 11 is set to wrap up with the wedding of Sheldon (Jim Parsons) and Amy (Mayim Bialik). George Cooper, Sheldon’s brother, is set to make his first appearance in the season finale. He will be played by Jerry O’Connell.
