CBS has renewed freshman drama series Code Black and Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders for a second season, as well as sophomore comedy The Odd Couple for a third season and reality show Undercover Boss for an eighth season. As expected, the list does not include freshman drama Limitless, though CBS has not made its cancellation official.
Medical drama Code Black, from creator/exec producer Michael Seitzman, had been gaining momentum the past couple of weeks. It is expected to undergo some changes for Season 2, with new characters added. It has been a consistent ratings performer, never falling under 1.1 ratings among adults 18-49 in Live+same day.
