Fans of Marshals will have to wait another week for the next episode of the Yellowstone spin-off. CBS is making a temporary change to its Sunday night lineup on November 8, replacing the Luke Grimes-led drama with a special three-hour presentation of another popular series, Cupertino.

The scheduling change means there will be no new episode of Marshals this Sunday. However, the break is expected to be brief, and the show is already set to return with another Season 2 installment the following week.

Why Isn’t Marshals Airing on November 8?

CBS has not publicly explained why Marshals is taking a week off. The network has, however, announced that Cupertino will occupy its usual Sunday evening time slot on November 8.

The three-hour special begins at 8 p.m. ET with a new episode titled “Harper.” Two additional episodes of the legal drama will follow at 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. ET.

Premiering on October 8, Cupertino follows lawyers Michael Price, played by Mike Colter, and Olivia Siffre, portrayed by Rachel Keller. After being fired by a technology start-up, the two navigate the next stage of their professional careers.

While the special temporarily replaces Marshals, viewers will not have to wait long for the Western drama to return.

When Will Marshals Season 2 Return?

According to CBS’ press release, Marshals will resume its regular programming with a new Season 2 episode on Sunday, November 15. The upcoming installment is titled “Roughstock.”

The episode will put Andrea Cruz in a leadership position while Cal is away in Utah to see a cancer specialist. With Logan Marshall-Green’s character temporarily absent, Andrea must take charge of the team and quickly faces a difficult situation.

Meanwhile, Kayce Dutton steps outside the Marshals’ jurisdiction to help Mo track down his missing nephew. The storyline will bring together several key characters as the team confronts another challenging case.

How Many Episodes Are Left in Marshals Season 2?

Although the schedule change may disappoint viewers looking forward to Sunday’s episode, the second season still has plenty of stories ahead.

In an October 2026 interview with Collider, Luke Grimes confirmed that Season 2 will contain 20 episodes, a substantial expansion from the first season’s 13 installments.

With five episodes having aired so far, 15 remain in the current season.

Grimes also addressed whether the larger episode order could lead to unnecessary storylines. He acknowledged that network television sometimes relies on “bottle episodes,” which typically involve fewer cast members and limited locations to reduce production costs.

However, the actor said he had not noticed that approach becoming a problem on Marshals. At the time of the interview, the production had reached Episode 14 without making such compromises.

“We’re on Episode 14 of Season 2, and we still haven’t had one of those,” Grimes said. He added that the team wanted to ensure the expanded order would not come at the expense of storytelling quality, emphasizing that all 20 episodes should feel worthwhile.

Where Can You Watch Marshals?

New episodes of Marshals Season 2 air on CBS, with episodes also becoming available to stream on Paramount+. The streaming platform also carries the complete first season.

Although CBS is giving the series a short break on November 8, the November 15 return date means fans can look forward to more of Kayce Dutton’s story without a lengthy interruption.
