CBS has been hitting the renewal button a lot this week, as it has been revealed that a lot of its fan-favourite shows are coming back for another season.

As reported by TVLine, the network have decided to give Blue Bloods a season 12, Bull a season 6, SWAT a season 5, and Magnum PI a season 4.

Earlier this week, CBS also renewed NCIS for a 19th season, and at the end of last month they gave Young Sheldon a whopping three extra seasons in one go.

A few CBS shows are still awaiting an official renewal or cancellation announcement (if you didn't know, US TV networks make most of their decisions around this time of year, it's basically their equivalent of transfer deadline day in sports).

We're still waiting to hear back if NCIS: Los Angeles, SEAL Team, The Unicorn and a few others will get renewed. We feel like the former is almost a dead cert, but we'll have to wait and see.

Not every show on the network's slate has been renewed, as it was announced that the MacGyver reboot will be coming to an end with its current season 5 finale, which airs in just under two weeks, no doubt breaking a lot of fans' hearts.
