As of June 13, 2026, M6 has canceled the broadcast of NCIS season 23 after only four weeks. The decision was made due to low viewership, with ratings dropping below the network's average for the time slot.
According to French media reports, the season premiere on May 16, 2026, attracted 2.8 million viewers, but subsequent episodes saw a steady decline, falling to 1.9 million by June 6. M6 had scheduled the season to air weekly on Saturdays at 9:10 PM.
No official statement has been released by M6 regarding a future return of the series. The network has replaced NCIS with reruns of other crime dramas for the remainder of the summer schedule.
