The team from Sin City will be back for more in the 2022-23 television season. CBS has renewed CSI: Vegas for a second season. Word is that William Petersen won’t be returning in his on-screen role but he’ll be back as an executive producer. Jorja Fox might be back for year two.

A police procedural series, the CSI: Vegas TV show is a sequel to CSI: Crime Scene Investigation which ran for 15 seasons. This show stars Petersen, Fox, Wallace Langham, Paula Newsome, Matt Lauria, Mandeep Dhillon, and Mel Rodriguez with Jamie McShane, Jay Lee, and Paul Guilfoyle in recurring roles. Facing an existential threat that could release thousands of convicted killers, a new team of investigators must enlist the help of CSI veterans, Gil Grissom (Petersen), Sara Sidle (Fox) for a case that involves former colleague David Hodges (Langham). The current Vegas Crime Lab is led by Maxine Roby (Newsome). Her team includes Level III CSI Josh Folsom (Lauria), Level II CSI Allie Rajan (Dhillon), and Head Medical Examiner Hugo Ramirez (Rodriguez). The combined force deploys the latest forensic techniques to do what they do best — follow the evidence — in order to preserve and serve justice.

The first season of CSI: Vegas averaged a 0.40 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 3.70 million viewers in the live+same day ratings (including DVR playback through 3:00 AM). While it’s been one of the network’s lowest-rated shows in the traditional ratings, CSI: Vegas saw sizable growth in the live+7 day ratings with averages of a 0.78 in the demo with 6.81 million.

Here’s the renewal announcement from CBS:
