CBS has adjusted its Sunday night lineup, leaving fans of the Yellowstone spinoff Marshals waiting an extra week for the next installment. There is no new episode airing tonight, Sunday, November 8, 2026.
As reported by US Magazine, CBS preempted its regular Sunday block to air a three-hour special presentation of the legal drama Cupertino, starring Mike Colter. The programming marathon featured the episode “Harper” followed by two encore airings. The network utilized the Sunday window to promote Cupertino, preempting the regular airing of Marshals.
When Does Marshals Season 2, Episode 6 Return?
Viewers will not have to wait long for the series to resume its schedule. Marshals is set to return to CBS on Sunday, November 15, 2026, at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
The upcoming sixth episode is titled “Roughstock.” Plot details indicate the episode will follow Kayce Dutton, played by Luke Grimes, as he embarks on an unauthorized mission. Kayce will team up with Mo to track down a missing nephew, a storyline that continues to develop Kayce’s transition from ranch life to federal law enforcement in Montana.
Season 2 Context and Production Changes
The current season of Marshals is operating under an expanded 20-episode order, reflecting the show’s status as a top performer for the network. Despite the Yellowstone connection, the spinoff has seen a shift in leadership; Spencer Hudnut serves as the showrunner, making this the first series in the franchise not directly overseen by creator Taylor Sheridan.
The series serves as a direct sequel to the original Yellowstone, though it carries a significantly different tone. The spinoff established early on that Kayce’s wife, Monica Dutton (Kelsey Asbille), is deceased in this timeline. This loss serves as the primary driver for Kayce’s move into the U.S. Marshals service.
According to CNET, fans can also expect to see more familiar faces as the season progresses. Jefferson White continues to appear in a recurring capacity, reprising his role as Jimmy Hurdstrom. Following the November 15 return, the series is expected to maintain its weekly release schedule as it moves through the remainder of its 20-episode run.
