Has Elsbeth Been Renewed for a Third Season?

Though several series have been canceled at CBS, fans can rest assured that Elsbeth, starring Carrie Preston, will be back for a new season. The news that Elsbeth had been renewed for Season 3 was announced earlier this year, along with renewals for the drama series Tracker, Fire Country, and NCIS, among others. 

It’s good news, too, considering how Elsbeth Season 2 left off. While the finale offered some closure, including Elsbeth stating “this is where I’m needed” during Kaya’s going-away party, it’s clear there’s plenty more story to tell.

Sadly, we’ll see less of Kaya, who was heading out at the end of the season to join a task force in Washington, D.C.
