After 14 seasons, NCIS: Los Angeles is coming to an end. Per THR, it has been revealed that the show’s current 14th season will serve as the last for the NCIS spinoff series, and the season finale episode, set to air on May 14, will now serve as the series finale. It will also mark 322 total episodes of the show before getting to the end of its run.
In a statement, CBS Entertainment president Amy Reisenbach said, “For 14 seasons, NCIS: Los Angeles has been a stalwart of our lineup with characters who were a joy to watch. It’s no surprise this show succeeded as a global franchise. From day one, the cast, producers, and crew were amazing network/studio partners, and their teamwork, talent, and spirit vividly came through on the screen. We are so grateful for the collaboration and remarkable run of these treasured members of our CBS family, and plan to give them the big sendoff they and their fans deserve.”

My deepest gratitude to the cast members, who have brought our characters to life with their impassioned performances — thank you for your talent, professionalism, and continuous enthusiasm."
Teasing a satisfying conclusion to the show, Gemmill continues, “To our loyal viewers who loved our characters and followed their journeys, thank you. We look forward to delivering an end to the series that is both satisfying and does justice to these beloved characters.”
