Marshals has been renewed for Season 2 at CBS after airing just two episodes. According to the network, it’s the most-watched series premiere since Young Sheldon in 2017. Additionally, Marshals Season 1 Episode 1 ranks as CBS’s most-streamed episode ever on Paramount+. With the Marshals Season 1 finale coming up on May 24, and with CBS’s big schedule changes this fall, we’re looking ahead to Marshals Season 2.
The Marshals series premiere (March 1 from 8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) was watched by 20.6 million multi-platform viewers within seven days, marking the most-watched network original series premiere without a football lead-in since 2017’s Young Sheldon series premiere, according to Nielsen data shared by CBS. Viewership data reflects only the original March 1 premiere, which aired on CBS and streamed on Paramount+, and does not include any encore airings. Episode 1 was the No. 1 show of the week after its debut, averaging 20.6 million viewers.
Marshals is the first broadcast series from the YellowstoneTV universe created by Taylor Sheridan. It’s also the first Yellowstone spinoff not to be made by Sheridan. Spencer Hudnut created it for CBS. The series stars Luke Grimes reprising his role as Kayce Dutton, who’s looking for a new start after the death of his wife, Monica (Kelsey Asbille).
The series premiere, which aired on March 1, revealed Monica’s fate. Their teenage son, Tate (Brecken Merrill), is also in the series, as are Yellowstone alums Gil Birmingham and Mo Brings Plenty. Kayce joins the U.S. Marshals after Monica’s death and is haunted by his family’s past in his new line of work.

Is Marshals renewed?

Marshals was renewed for Season 2 on Thursday, March 12, after only two episodes had aired on CBS.
“Marshals delivered a breakout performance, capturing a massive audience across platforms and quickly establishing itself as one of TV’s most powerful new series,” said Amy Reisenbach, president, CBS Entertainment. “The overwhelming viewer response speaks to the strength of the Yellowstone world, the bold character-driven storytelling from the creative team, and the dynamic cast performances led by Luke Grimes.”
When does Marshals Season 2 premiere?
Marshals Season 1 had a midseason debut in March 2026, but the success of the series has prompted CBS to move it up to a fall premiere.
Marshals Season 2 comes out this fall 2026 on CBS. A premiere date will be announced at a later time, but it will be September or October.
Marshals will keep its air day and time when it moves to the fall later this year, so expect Marshals Season 2 episodes to air on Sundays at 8/7c. (See the CBS 2026-2027 schedule here.) It’s not clear if Marshals Season 2 will have more episodes than Season 1 (which has 13) with the move up to fall.
The cast has teased that the Marshals Season 1 finale is going to end on a huge cliffhanger that will make Kayce’s world collapse.
