CBS viewers hoping for another fresh episode of Marshals this Sunday, May 31, 2026, are out of luck. Instead of continuing the suspenseful storylines left hanging in Episode 13, “Wolves at the Door,” the network will air a rerun of Episode 10, “Playing with Fire,” at 8:00 p.m. ET. The Season 1 finale, which aired on May 24, wrapped up the first chapter of the Yellowstone spin-off, leaving audiences with plenty of questions about the fate of key characters and their ongoing story arcs.

Season 1 of Marshals consisted of 13 episodes, and there will be no Episode 14. The finale left viewers on edge with multiple cliffhangers. Fans were left wondering whether Cal (Logan Marshall-Green) and Belle (Arielle Kebbel) survived the shooting, whether Cruz (Ash Santos) truly left Montana for a position in Washington, D.C., and if Dolly Weaver (Ellyn Jameson) was acting in cahoots with her father. The episode also teased the possibility of a crossover with Dutton Ranch, as Tate (Brecken Merrill) embarked on a Texas bass fishing trip with the enigmatic Tom Weaver (Chris Mulkey), whose intentions remain murky.
Despite the suspenseful conclusion, CBS confirmed back in March 2026 that Marshals would return for a second season. The renewal came exceptionally early—just before the third episode of Season 1 aired—highlighting the show’s immediate success. CBS praised the series as “the best network TV launch since 2017” and noted that it had become the “most streamed CBS episode ever.” Amy Reisenbach, president of CBS Entertainment, lauded the series’ compelling storytelling, strong performances led by Luke Grimes as Kayce, and the expansive appeal of the Yellowstone universe.
As for the Season 2 premiere, an official date has yet to be released. However, CBS’s 2026–2027 fall primetime schedule, announced on April 15, 2026, confirmed that Marshals would return on Sundays at 8:00 p.m. ET. With the network’s tendency to launch returning series in October, it is likely that audiences can expect the new season to start then, continuing the high-stakes drama that has made the show a breakout success.

Season 2 is expected to maintain the momentum from Season 1, following the team as they tackle fresh cases while resolving lingering storylines. The finale’s cliffhangers—Cruz’s potential departure to D.C., the survival of Belle and Cal, Kayce’s developing relationship with Dolly, and Tate’s precarious situation in Texas—set the stage for a season filled with tension, suspense, and possible inter-series crossovers. Fans are particularly eager to see whether the fishing trip will serve as a gateway to a Marshals and Dutton Ranch crossover, a tantalizing prospect for viewers invested in the Yellowstone universe.
For those who want to catch up on past episodes or stream the new season when it returns, Marshals is available on Paramount+. The streaming service offers two plans: the ad-supported Essential plan at $8.99 per month and the Premium plan at $13.99 per month, which is ad-free and includes Showtime titles along with live CBS programming. With the show’s early success and strong streaming numbers, it is expected that the second season will be another tightly produced, possibly even longer, run compared to its 13-episode debut.
As fans await the sophomore season, the buzz around Marshals remains high. Season 1’s finale has left numerous questions unanswered, from Dolly’s allegiances and Cal and Belle’s survival to Cruz’s future and the mysterious intentions of Tom Weaver. With CBS’s commitment to bringing the series back, viewers can look forward to answers and more intricate storytelling in the coming season. The network and streaming platform are poised to continue leveraging the popularity of the Yellowstone world, ensuring that Marshals remains a central player in Sunday night primetime drama.
In short, there will be no new episode of Marshals this Sunday, May 31, but the series is confirmed for a second season. Paramount+ subscribers and CBS viewers alike can anticipate the continuation of the story in the fall of 2026, with fresh cases, major character developments, and possibly a crossover that could expand the Yellowstone universe even further. The suspense, drama, and action that have defined the series so far are set to continue, promising fans another thrilling season.
