CBS Picks Up 'Einstein,' 'DMV' for New Season

CBS has officially ordered two new series for the 2025-26 season: 'Einstein,' a drama starring Matthew Gray Gubler and Rosa Salazar, and 'DMV,' a single-camera workplace comedy led by Tim Meadows and Harriet Dyer and featuring Molly Kearney, Alex Tarrant, Tony Cavalero, and Gigi Zumbado. 'Einstein' is based on a German series and follows the brilliant but aimless great-grandson of Albert Einstein, who is forced by legal trouble to aid a New Jersey detective with complex cases. 'DMV' centers on the daily antics of underpaid staff at a motor vehicle office and has been praised for its modest production budget and strong testing. CBS ordered both series as part of a programming shakeup, which included the cancellation of 'Poppa’s House' and the competition show 'The Summit.' The new shows are produced by CBS Studios. These additions join other upcoming series like 'Sheriff Country,' 'Boston Blue,' and 'CIA' on CBS' forthcoming lineup.
