CBS Boss Defends Their Unusual Watson Season 2 Decision For Morris Chestnut’s Medical Drama: “There’s No Other Real Logical Place For It”

CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach justifies an unexpected scheduling move concerning the show titled “Watson”. Premiering on January 26, featuring Morris Chestnut as the lead, this series picks up a year after Sherlock Holmes seems to have perished at the hands of his greatest adversary, Moriarty. The concept has resonated, with season 2 of “Watson” already renewed; however, fans will need to be patient since the next episode won’t air until 2026.

In comments to Deadline, Reisenbach defended delaying Watson to 2026:
