Code Black, CM:BB & The Odd Couple - Likely to be Renewed; Limitless Being Shopped Elsewhere

I will update once we have official confirmation.

I have learned that two freshman CBS series that have been looking good for renewal, Code Black and Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders, have received permission from the network to begin making if-come deals with writers for Season 2. Both are co-productions between ABC Studios and CBS TV Studios. Among the remaining CBS series whose fate has not been decided, sophomore comedy The Odd Couple starring Matthew Perry is looking good to return after better than expected ratings performance for the current second season, while I hear freshman drama Limitless is not likely to continue at CBS. It is being shopped.

Medical drama Code Black, from creator Michael Seitzman, had been gaining momentum the last couple of weeks. I hear the show, which is expected to undergo some changes for Season 2, already has been looking into director hires for next season. It was a consistent ratings performer, never falling under 1.1 ratings among adults 18-49 in Live+same day.
