Apparently (as of yesterday's news), she will be 'recurring' on All Rise.
And the Jorja news broke about two weeks ago (she didn't want Grissom and Sara split up again). I had missed that news.
I must have missed the news that Jorja Fox was not returning.
I was aware about Pederson.
Great news about Helgenberger (wasn't sure it was possible with All Rise moving to streaming)
The following shows had 18-22 episode seasons in 2019/20
Chicago Fire
Chicago Med
Chicago PD
The Rookie
Blue Bloods
Blacklist
NCIS
New Amsterdam
The Flash
Obviously 2020/21 is an anomaly. But I expect many of these to be 18-22 this year
So, regular length seasons are still a thing
Completely false statement.
Maybe the writers/show-runners you watch aren't competent enough to create full seasons.
But full seasons aren't, by definition, lower quality.
