The new drama did not receive any extra episodes.
November 16, 2017
NBC released its mid-season schedule today and it's not good news for The Brave. The freshman military drama is nowhere to be found in the line-up, meaning the network did not order any additional episodes for the show's first season.
The hour-long series premiered in September and through eight episodes has been a decent performer in the 10:00pm time slot on Monday nights, though it regularly gets beaten by a substantial margin by The Good Doctor, which brings in roughly double the viewers, both overall and in the key adults 18-49 demographic.
The Brave takes place in the world of America's elite undercover military operations. In D.C., a team of analysts utilize highly-advanced surveillance technology from their headquarters, while out in the field a Special Ops squad of expertly-trained undercover specialists risk it all as they execute dangerous missions behind enemy lines in the name of freedom and saving the lives of innocent people.
What today's news means for now is that Season 1 of The Brave will end after its initial order of 13 episodes is up, with a final decision on a second season to come at a later date. As history goes, however, Season 2 does not appear likely at this point.
Taking The Brave's time slot in the New Year will be new crime drama Good Girls, which premieres on February 26.

Best of the military dramas on TV, very sad to see this. Infinitely better than Seal Team and it should be moved to a different time slot if they want better numbers (it isn't doing poorly). Networks are too quick to pull expensive dramas when they aren't #1 in their time slot. Plenty of budget crap comedies are already filling the air.

Too bad, I enjoy the show and it is superior to Valor and Seal Team. NBC just does not get it, and the reason I watch the network less frequently than the others.

This is a great show, you need to give it more TIME. It's much better than Valor.

This show is fantastic. It needs to stay on.

Honestly I like both Seal Team and The Brave! Can't believe they would cancel this already. They need to think about the scheduling conflicts. Move The Brave to a different time/night. I really like The Valor right now as well. Start giving accurate credit for households who actually DVR shows and/or stream them not on the exact date & time. Give credit where credit is due!

This is the only new show I enjoy watching. I hope NBC comes to their senses and keeps this show going. Like others, I tried to watch SEAL Team, but could not get into it and stopped watching it after five episodes.

Please do not cancel this show!! It is the best of all the military shows on air. The casting is perfect, the stories are awesome, I look forward to it coming on every week! As another viewer stated, move it to another day and/or time slot. IT IS A GREAT SHOW!! I'm not into the Good Doctor. Not quite ready for Norman Bates to be performing surgery on folks. He was that convincing in that role.

I love this program, it actually has a STORY line. I cant believe they renewed Seal Team already as it is not as good in my opinion. The Brave is a much better produced program

you are making a huge mistake. i don't know how the decisions are made, but clearly something is wrong. i watched all the military shows this year. seal team is good, but the brave was just as good and sometimes better. only watched one episode of valor.i never comment on this stuff but it was my fav new show this season!
