Overview

  • CBS has postponed the debut of 'Einstein,' starring Matthew Gray Gubler and Rosa Salazar, to the 2026-27 TV season due to a crowded 2025-26 schedule.
  • The series, based on a German dramedy, follows Albert Einstein’s great-grandson assisting a detective in solving complex cases.
  • CBS’s decision mirrors its approach with 'Sheriff Country,' which was also delayed for strategic scheduling and development purposes.
  • The network plans to unveil its full 2025-26 schedule, including other new series like 'Boston Blue' and 'FBI: CIA,' on May 7.
  • The delay allows 'Einstein' additional pre-production time and positions it for a potential promotional push during March Madness 2026.
