NOTES: CBS announced its 2023-2024 primetime programming lineup of CBS Originals, featuring three new dramas, one new comedy, special event programming and 22 returning series. CBS Sports will also present Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday, Feb. 11, 2024, live on CBS and Paramount+ from the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nev.

Matlock stars Emmy and Academy Award winner Kathy Bates as Madeline “Matty” Matlock, a brilliant septuagenarian who achieved success in her younger years and decides to rejoin the workforce at a prestigious law firm where she uses her unassuming demeanor and wily tactics to win cases. Matty is assigned to Olympia (Skye P. Marshall), a senior attorney and key rainmaker with a thirst for justice. Olympia’s ex-husband, Julian (Jason Ritter), the son of the head of the firm, is intrigued by Matty and her clever skills. As Matty endeavors to establish herself in her new high-stakes world, she works alongside the firm’s younger associates – the charismatic Billy (David Del Rio) and the uber ambitious Sarah (Leah Lewis). Matlock is inspired by the classic television series of the same name.

The previously announced drama Tracker stars Justin Hartley as lone-wolf survivalist Colter Shaw, who roams the country as a “reward seeker,” using his expert tracking skills to help private citizens and law enforcement solve all manner of mysteries while contending with his own fractured family. Tracker is set to premiere in the highly coveted post-Super Bowl timeslot on Sunday, Feb. 11, 2024.

Poppa's House

Also premiering later in the season is the new comedy Poppa's House, starring Damon Wayans and Damon Wayans Jr. Wayans stars as legendary talk radio host and happily divorced “Poppa” who has his point of view challenged at work when a new female co-host (Essence Atkins) is hired, and at home where he finds himself still parenting his adult son (Damon Wayans Jr.), a brilliant dreamer who is trying to pursue his passion while being a responsible father and husband.

CSI: Vegas returns for its third season to anchor the Sunday 10:00 PM slot later in the year.

Critically-acclaimed dramedy Moonshine, about dysfunctional siblings battling for control of their family business also joins the network's scripted slate. The fan-favorite legal drama Family Law starring Jewel Staite and Victor Garber returns for a second season, and comedy series Bump will deliver even more laughs in its second season. Airdates and times for all these series will be announced at a later date.
