CBS announced today that Marshals has been renewed for a second season. It's an early pickup for the new drama, coming just two episodes into its freshman run.

It is understandable though, after its series premiere was watched by 20.6 million multiplatform viewers with seven days, making it the network's most-watched original series premiere without a football lead-in since 2017.

"Marshals delivered a breakout performance, capturing a massive audience across platforms and quickly establishing itself as one of TV's most powerful new series," said Amy Reisenbach, president, CBS Entertainment. "The overwhelming viewer response speaks to the strength of the Yellowstone world, the bold character driven storytelling from the creative team and the dynamic cast performances led by Luke Grimes."

The show follows Kayce Dutton, who puts the Yellowstone Ranch behind him and moves on to join an elite unit of U.S. Marshals, combining his skills as a cowboy and Navy SEAL to bring range justice to Montana. Together, he and his teammates must balance family, duty, and the high psychological cost that comes with serving as the last line of defense in the region's war on violence.
