So, what’s the reason for the break?

It’s actually normal for shows to take an extended break. Many TV shows air fall finales and take a hiatus during the winter holidays, and that is what the Elsbeth is doing this year!

The winter premiere will air on Thursday, January 30 at 10/9c.

Other CBS hits that are taking breaks include Fire Country, Matlock, S.W.A.T., and more.

If you didn’t see, we now know if any CBS TV shows are renewed or canceled.
